LinkedIn has become the network for connecting with like-minded professionals, thought leaders, prospects and potential employers, so of course, it's the place where you want to make a strong impression. Problem is, the linear resume of experience and mini profile pic that make up the standard LinkedIn profile don't exactly serve those intentions in this day and age.

Luckily, LinkedIn has realized this and now offers a variety of applications that help your profile stand out while demonstrating the depth of your core competence and subject matter expertise. There are 8 applications in particular that every marketer and business owner on LinkedIn should consider. In this Take 10, LinkedIn expert Jason Alba explains which to use and why they're essential for positioning your brand.
