Crystal: My name is Crystal Theis, my company is Crystal Clear Buzz, and I am the LinkedIn Ninja.

We have Google presentations which also allows you to put Powerpoint presentations, but because they are directly integrated with YouTube, you can put a YouTube video that will play directly on your profile.

Well, it's a great way to make yourself stand out because not that many people have videos on their profile. Also, it's a great way to get people to pay more attention to who you are and what you do. Yes, you may have a link that will take them to your YouTube site, or to your website where that video may be, but a lot of times, people won't go to that extra effort of going to your actual website and looking for it or goint to your YouTube and looking for it, so you wanna make sure you give them that information and capture them while they are there on your profile, because chances are they're not gonna go much further.

So it's a really great way to share content from your network and give your network people visibility, and put you in front of your network as well, all at the same time.

Video can be used on LinkedIn, and a lot of people may not be aware of it, because it's not a function that LinkedIn itself has built into the profiles, but it is able to be added with a couple of the different applications. Both Slideshare, which is a Powerpoint sharing social network, where people go to ind information, has the ability to embed YouTube videos. Additionally, you can upload video that you do not want on YouTube so that you can add that to your profile. And when you add that application to your LinkedIn profile, it will play directly in there.

Ninjas are stealth. They are cunning, precise, so I help people be very effecient and effective using LinkedIn in the best way possible for them and their business.
