No! I’m not telling you to close your LinkedIn account, silly.
This week I’ve had a few people tell me they mistakenly created TWO accounts and want to delete one of them.
Here’s how.
In the account you’d like to close, click the area where your name is (Step 1)
Click on the drop-down menu with the word “Settings”
Click on the “Account” Tab (Step 2)
Click on “Close Your Account” (Step 3)
This “Settings” area – where it says “Email Settings” is also where you can manage the amount of emails or digests you receive.
Whatever you do, don’t delete your main LinkedIn account. I think this is THE most powerful business tool out of all the Social Media sites.
Hopefully you’re building and adding to it regularly!
