LinkedIn Top Tip - Grow Your Own Network Group

The best way to grow a successful network is to grow your own. Create your own Linked In Group by going to

For example, say you have an advertising firm that specializes in retail development. You could start a group for users that focuses on all the new franchises emerging or those expanding in new business opportunities.

You would then use this forum to communicate to all those you invite to the
group. You would become the moderator and create influence and credibility by growing the collective wisdom of the group. By having your own group and leading it, you become one of the “go-to” people others want to connect with and learn from. Now, it will be easier for you or your employees to connect with referral sources and prospects building credibility and trust much faster.
