Building a Connection On LinkedIn

A good connection benefits both persons involved. But a real connection must be a two-way deal for it to persist. Why should the other person bother staying connected if you're the only one benefiting from the connection? Or why would the other party stress out just so they could connect with you?

The same is true for LinkedIn. LinkedIn is all about business networking; therefore, making a meaningful LinkedIn connection will entail adding professional value on some level. Business owners may think that building connections on social media is more accessible than doing it on LinkedIn. Adam, an expert, noted that you must have the right formula and be consistent to genuinely like people.

Your profile, targeting, and messaging must be harmonious and on point.  

If you're looking to pitch and sell all day long, then LinkedIn won't work for you. There is a time and a place to sell, but you must understand the process to get there. Otherwise, you never will.
