LinkedIn introductions

LinkedIn is a wonderful engine for building relationships and networking. One of the best tools LinkedIn offers is the ability to search for particular individuals in your network and to be referred to them by your network. Say you are wating to connect with me. You could do a search for Rick Itzkowich and then you would see if any of the people in your network are connected to me. If they are, you could send me an introduction via one of them. They would then forward the introduction to me.

This path is less linnear than if you were to contact me directly, but it is much more effective.

I will be discussing some do’s and dont’s in future posts.
