that distinction?

Daniel AlfonGUEST
So before you do anything on LinkedIn, you need to ask yourself, why am I doing this? And if it's an automatic action, if you're used to accepting invitation requests, Then you stop and you say, okay, why am I making this choice? Because you have a choice.

Daniel AlfonGUEST
When you get spammed and someone wants to sell you something you're not interested in, you have the agency, you have the capability to read and to say, hey, I'm not falling for this.

Daniel AlfonGUEST
Why should you lose your IQ when you log into a LinkedIn platform? You don't have to.

Where do you think they are getting it from?

Daniel AlfonGUEST
If they're interested in referrals, it means that when I ask you questions, you need to be able to answer me.

Daniel AlfonGUEST
When, Ferdinand, can you answer me if you know the person well? So let's think of people you went to school with or people you worked with.

Daniel AlfonGUEST
If there's someone you worked with for two years or for six months, you would be able to tell me something about them.

Daniel AlfonGUEST
And if we connect with people we know well, then the biggest secret is how to run an advanced search on LinkedIn.

Daniel AlfonGUEST
Many people think that they need to reach out to people they don't know in order to get their help.

Daniel AlfonGUEST
But the truth is that if we leverage our current network, people who know you really well, those people can help you a lot.

Daniel AlfonGUEST
People you went to school with, people who are neighbors, people who are family, people you worked with in the last two to three years.
