slogan, or some other catchy phrase.

You’ve got mail…

Regularly check the inbox for updates and invites.

Get discovered BEYOND the LinkedIn website…

For ease of discovery, use the “vanity URL “feature.

Just because you build it, doesn’t mean people will come.

While you can be more passive with a LinkedIn account once you have your initial network established, reaping the full benefits of the

other tools requires time. You might consider allotting some time daily, or even weekly, to update profiles, find news articles relevant

to your clients, building the various networks, and — most importantly — managing the relationships within these networks.

Social media is not

something to fear.

If you remember that it’s simply a set of

tools that allow you to build and maintain

relationships — and it should be used in

partnership with your current relationship

maintenance methods — then you are well

on your way to social media success.
