LINKEDIN.COM JUST LEVELED THE PLAYING FIELD

Linkedin.com has made the world of business a much smaller place. The contacts you seek are no longer separated from you by six degrees; the number is down to one, two or three in most cases if you are on LinkedIn, by far the most successful and vibrant of all professional networking sites.

And it has leveled the playing field in ways one could not have imagined. The community of LinkedIn users can now be used by anyone for accessing faraway markets, landing dream jobs, raising capital, attracting the best of talent, building corporate brands and more. What you can achieve is limited only by your imagination and effort.

The ingredients are all there to whip up something profitable for yourself. And it is not rocket science.

This book is full of ideas, real cases and suggestions on how to get LinkedIn to work for you. Because, as you will see, LinkedIn works for you even as you sleep.

This book has been written to help you understand the possibilities offered by LinkedIn. And how to get the best out of it. This is NOT a primer or a manual on how to use LinkedIn. there is no step-by-step handholding showing you how this site works. The reasons are simple:

* The objective is to show you the big picture the user manual part has been left to others.

* LinkedIn thrives in a highly dynamic environment just like all other forms of new media. How you navigate the site, its look-and-feel and specific features are constantly undergoing change.

What you see today may look very different in a matter of a few weeks. So a LinkedIn manual has every chance of becoming obsolete overnight! But the utility of this book might not go away in a hurry.

This book is all about the principles behind using LinkedIn. While a general guidance has been provided to be able to use the site, the detailed nuts and bolts can easily be figured out on this user-friendly and simple-to-use platform.

This book is for everyone, right from those who may not have even heard of LinkedIn to those who are experienced users. There is always something new and different one can learn on this site, and this book hopes to highlight all of these.

The book has not been sanctioned or commissioned by the management of LinkedIn in any way it is an independent and objective work.
