As much as LinkedIn has changed my life for the better, it will not work for everyone. Some people are better off not using LinkedIn at all. Although, I do recommend that everyone give it at least a try. I’ve been pleasantly surprised many times when I initially thought that LinkedIn wouldn’t work for a certain career, industry or person but then I turned out to be wrong. As a LinkedIn speaker and trainer – I’m motivated by the success stories that I’ve heard from my students. If I could just impact one student in my class in a positive way then my job’s been done. Check out this short excerpt from my LinkedIn workshop for the Broward College Alumni group.

While there may be some businesses out there which cannot benefit from using Linkedin, my business is not one of them. Quite honestly, I have been truly amazed how Linkedin works its magic. It is not what I do for my own business that really seems to matter. Ironically, the value to my business comes from what others bring to me and I bring to their business…first.
Linkedin, from my perspective, is not about waving the flag of your own business, but waving the flag of someone else’s business…first. Linkedin is The Golden Rule applied to business.
