Recommendations
• Leverage the professional nature of LinkedIn• Join groups, ask questions, float ideas, solicit
feedback – and expect fast feedback most of the time
• If you’ve launched a product ask your LinkedIn network for comments
• Engage in discussion. DO NOT launch in with your sales pitch. It’s a sure fire way to lose the connection.
