Linked in is a very handy networking tool, and this is a good video which describes the proper use of Linked in.
It is about finding the right tools online to help you succeed with your projects.
A friend of mine and I were out last night at the Toronto Auto Show, a major disappointment, and we got to talking about how to keep up with what old
friends, employers, and the like were up to.
I mentioned that Linked in was very useful in helping you find a way to an expert, apart from simply cold calling or emailing the person. Linked in helps you get an introduction to someone you think that you might need.
It isn't perfect, but for franchisee executives who want to talk with other association leaders or vendors it is a very good way to get that introduction which may make all the difference.
