LinkedIn is a 40m person network, but within that large number lies 275,000+ groups. A LinkedIn group is a specialised community of likeminded people who interact and network amongst themselves. You can find a group for just about anyone or anything!
I believe that by joining groups in your target markets, becoming involved and answering questions, you are building your online presence, whilst also furthering your business development. As we say here at Kintish, you should always be looking for your "Ahaa moment" - and you never know where this may present itself!
But I haven’t got time for all this!
I hear this regularly. All I say is it should simply be part of your business development in general and networking in particular. When you attend events or your professional conferences and seminars, you spend lots of time travelling. Set aside some time each week to suit you and I believe it will be time well spent. It is pure bulls-eye focus on building new or on existing relationships.
This is just one of many of my LinkedIn tips and ideas, Kintish are also running 'live' seminars to help you get the best out of LinkedIn, visting Manchester on July 1st and London on July 7th, please visit www.linkedintraining.co.uk for more information.
