Synopsis
Make your LinkedIn account work for you and your business LinkedIn is not just another social media tool. It's the world's largest professional online network, with over 120 million users in over two hundred countries. The Power in a Link shows you how to employ this remarkable yet misunderstood resource to execute networking strategies and processes for your business, secure deals, and use (not abuse) your existing relationships. Author David Gowel, the man the Boston Globe has called the "LinkedIn Jedi," delivers the understanding necessary to map networks, stimulate word of mouth, and leverage unparalleled business intelligence to close deals. Arguing that LinkedIn is not social media at all, but instead belongs in a category all of its own, the book cuts through the noise in the crowded social media world with practical applications and explains why all professionals should embrace it in order to achieve success faster through relationships. This book: Advises readers how to spur effective network growth by projecting the right message online Demonstrates how to build and enhance readers' online presence Shows readers how to seek targeted introductions to the connections that matter most Explains why LinkedIn has been misunderstood and therefore misused by many users as well as how to correct past LinkedIn mistakes Partly conceptual, partly autobiographical, and partly technical, The Power in a Link includes success stories from Gowel and other professionals that demonstrate the effectiveness of his techniques., Make your LinkedIn account work for you and your business LinkedIn is not just another social media tool. Its the worlds largest professional online network, with over 120 million users in more than two hundred countries. The Power in a Link shows you how to employ this remarkable yet misunderstood resource to map networks, stimulate word of mouth, and leverage unparalleled business intelligence to close deals. "I travel the globe teaching entrepreneurs and often let them know its foolish not to actively use LinkedIn. This productivity tool is invaluable, but I probably still wouldnt be using it anywhere near the level I am today if Dave didnt ask for a warm introduction to me so he could show me the light." BILL AULET , Managing Director and Senior Lecturer, MIT Entrepreneurship Center "Dave Gowel has shown me that when used properly, LinkedIn allows professionals todisplace hope with decisive action." ROGER STAUBACH , NFL Hall of Fame Quarterback and Executive Chariman, Americas, Jones Lang LaSalle "Building reputation and generating word of mouth doesnt happen by accident. Daves book provides a fresh, strategic approach to our most basic professional activities." JEFFREY BUSSGANG , General Partner, Flybridge Capital Partners, and author of Mastering the VC Game "V=n(n-1). Metcalfes Law has seen iterations and improvements, but the basic point still holds: the value of a network is an exponential function of the number of nodes. Most people argue over things like the relative strength of connections, V=n(log n), or the added value of groups, V=2n. Theyre all missing the real story, Gowels Corollary: the value of a network is only as valuable as how you use it: V=U[n(n-1)]. As Dave teaches us, page by page, anything times zero is zero!" GREGG FAIRBROTHERS , Adjunct Professor of Business Administration, Dartmouths Tuck School of Business, author of From Idea to Success, Make your LinkedIn account work for you and your business LinkedIn is not just another social media tool. Its the worlds largest professional online network, with over 120 million users in over two hundred countries.
