The Mantra
Getting Connected to Grow Your Network via
LinkedIn Answers
Establishing KLOUT
Ask questions and provide answers, showcasing your
expertise
Find questions related to your industry, your expertise and your
service offering
Ask questions which may lead to a connection with
someone who is an expert or a potential
buyer of service
Rank the answers, and be ready to be ranked as
well
Finding Employees, Jobs, and Offering
Services
If you are looking for employees, be
prepared to recommend the
existing employees or partners, friends, etc.
Requesting recommendations is
important as well, make sure you are very specific about the
recommendation you are asking for.
You can also create a recommendation process for your
company, not just individual profile –
However make sure you are also very
specific about recommendation you
are seeking
Join and Create Groups
Provide and solicit recommendations, look for partners and co-branding
opportunities
Optimize your profile (keywords, phrases, posts,
feeds, etc.)
Encourage your employees, partners, and
clients to promote you
Getting Connected to Grow Your Network
Search twice, connect once
Sorting the results, searching by keyword, name, company, job
title, etc.
Ability to export or save searches, depending
on the LinkedIn account level
Getting Connected to Grow Your Network
In-Mail is a powerful way to reach out to a ‘searched’ contact with a
meaningful message
Try to avoid anonymous communications – use a network of friends to connect to someone
with a referral
Plan an introduction in advance, be honest in your intent.
it’s not just ok to engage someone in a conversation, it is the reason for engaging, it’s the
way of the world.
Communication via the internet and social networks are not
different!
Getting Connected to Grow Your Network
Expand your network with your colleagues,
friends, relatives
‘Mine’ your friends’ connections and suggest a 2nd
degree connection
Ask for a referral and be prepared to send a message and to
talk about your value proposition
Don’t use canned invitations
Strive to be different, engaging, if your
offer isn’t Thoughtful, compelling or sharing something insightful
do not send it
