Our third expert on the Social Media TeleSummit was Chi
p Lambert of Network2Networth. His topic was Increasing Your Connections and Profits Using Linkedin. I did not know what to expect from the call as I have not used Linkedin. I did have a profile, but I have never used it and just had not found the Linkedin very helpful. I went into the call with few expectations.
Boy, do I feel very differently now and I look forward to incorporating Linkedin into my business plan. I learned a great deal on this call and realized what how I can use Linkedin as a way to find many contacts through the power of other connections. This will be especially helpful to me being in a new city and I am counting on having many connections I didn’t even realize I had. The call was fantastic in terms of teaching me how to use a tool that does not seem that intuitive to use and I definitely see the benefit in using it.
Thank you so much for being on the call Chip. You are clearly passionate about networking and profitability and I learned a great deal. Continue to check our website and blog for more information regarding social media and Linkedin.
