[Fredslist] Linked-in

[Katalin Goencz]

I agree with RitaSue,

 

LinkedIn can provide you with a great discussion.   I had actually met
(virtually) someone whom I referred business due to her extreme specialty in
ERISA law. 

I would think that you have to be driven to get business from LinkedIn.  It
would involve knowing exactly whom you would want to connect and what is
your specific appeal to that business person.

Every now and then someone asks one of the Linkedin groups I belong to if
anyone has gotten any business from being a part of it. The answer is "no."
What it is good for I think, aside from some very enjoyable group
discussions, is for search consultants like me to find potential candidates
for jobs we are working on.

 

Best regards,

Tony

I do not look at LinkedIn right now as a way to make substantial business
contacts.

I try to use it as an ancillary confirmation of who I am through the use of
recommendations and the type of people on my contact list.

What I have found amazing is how LinkedIn seems to know who I know.
They just asked me if I knew someone I have not had contact with in a decade
and that person lives in England

Some of my clients use it as a way to stay in front of everyone on their
contact list by posting what is happening or telling all some new
information.

and if you really want to know how to deal with LinkedIn, try Gothmite Marc
Halpert's webinar.

I've heard such great things about the Linked in seminars. My question to
the Tribe is has anyone actually written business thorough a contact made
from Linked-in, and if so was it substantial?
thanks,
