I have been working on a LinkedIn makeover for myself but not having a background in design or marketing I have struggled with the details.  I want to acknowledge Scott Allen for taking on this challenge and want to say thank you.

Extreme LinkedIn Profile MakeoverInspired by Jason Alba’s blog makeover for Ryan Smith and the popular relaunch of Ryze profile reviews on The Virtual Handshake Network on Ryze, plus a little nudge from my channel editor Doug Hanna, I’m going to start doing Extreme LinkedIn Profile Makeovers. They’ll be once a month (I reserve the right to do it more or less frequently, depending on demand), and I invite readers to join in with your comments as well.
