How to REALLY use LinkedIn

It is vital in any economic situation to have a network to be able to fall back on, or build upon. The most valuable website giving you this on a professional level is LinkedIn. Over 34 million people now have a profile on LinkedIn and also a few Connections. The question that most people ask is: what does this website have that I can use to my advantage? And also: how can I use it in a way that gives me results without my having to spend too much time on it? “How to REALLY use LinkedIn” shows why LinkedIn is such a powerful tool for everybody to use. Not only that, it also presents a short and effective step-by-step plan for people to apply to get immediate results and advanced strategies for finding new customers, a new job, employees and people to help you get your job done faster. On top of that, the answers to frequently asked questions, an overview of little-known LinkedIn features and the list of free time-saving tools make it the perfect manual to REALLY start using LinkedIn.

4Finally THE answer to WHY I should use LinkedIn!  Oct 20, 2009
Of course I knew about LinkedIn, but somehow I never seemed to really get on with it. Jan Vermeirens book has given me a clear insight and plenty of useful tips as to WHY I should use LinkedIn even more as a powerful tool. The STRATEGIC use of it (esp. the Gain exercise) has been most helpful.

5Inspired to use LinkedIn  Oct 19, 2009
In reading Jan's book How to Really Use LinkedIn, I must say I'm inspired - and I'm uninspirable! I've never really embraced LinkedIn until now. I now find myself more focused on social (and business) media as I learn more. Jan's book has taught me the value of LinkedIn and how to get the most out of it to enhance my overall networking strategy. His step by step approach is easy to follow. Take it from someone who speaks on the topic of networking, Jan's approaches are on track, get results, and can be implemented immediately. I recommend the book to anyone looking to create more networking gravity both on and off line.

3LinkedIn 101  Oct 12, 2009
"The author is a networking consultant who explains how LinkedIn fits into a larger personal networking strategy. I found the first half valuable as it helped me better understand Linked in. I have particularly benefited from LinkedIn groups, which I never understood before. The second half felt like filler. Once I got the basics, I dove in and started playing around in LinkedIn, which is essential to really get it."

2Repetitive, poorly translated, and too basic  Oct 11, 2009
I had high hopes for this book which were quickly dashed. The book was poorly translated and was an ebook put into printed format. Only 10-20% of the book was relevant and interesting. The rest of the book was way too basic and constantly repeated itself, was repetitive and said the same thing over and over again. If you've never used LinkedIn and know nothing about personal networking, this book has some tidbits of info--though you can easily get that for free in line.

Besides the constant repetition, the book "promises" updates, yet to even see the updates, you have to give up private info...then oops...no updates.

Take a pass on this book.

5Finally a clear view on using LinkedIn  Sep 30, 2009
Like many I was LINKED, but that was it! This book finally explained the "usefulness" of this great platform, but also "how" to use it. The lessons my colleagues and I learned from this book have changed our commercial thinking. Finally we don't have to worry anymore how to find and contact new prospects, suppliers and other interesting contacts. We are now taking (active) part in many Groups and discover new ways of working, thinking and more. Thanks Jan, look forward to your next "networking"-creation!
