Dedicated REI LinkedIn Profile?

I am trying to decide if I should add my REI information to my existing LinkedIn profile that contains my full-time job. The alternative is to add a new LinkedIn profile dedicated to REI. Just wondering what other people do? Thanks!

I added my RE information to my regular LinkedIn profile. It has actually spurred a good bit of conversation from people that I work indirectly with, which is good for my RE business. So much so that I'm seriously considering getting my RE license sometime soon so that I can really capitalize on it. People are curious and want to ask you questions. This is a people business. Do it.

I do not talk about my RE business at work or to coworkers though--unless they ask something very deliberate. I don't want them to think that my thoughts or efforts are being focused anywhere other than my job.

I do not. I personally keep it private.

@Jake Johnson

Don’t have two - too much work and confusion - add it to your existing (note: assuming your employer doesn’t care or you work in a competing type of business)
