Some good tips but gives me the feeling of I just paid for an infomercial

I liked some of the tools and tips provided in the book. Although there are links and recommendations to software and templates I got a sour feeling about being a target of a huge infomercial machine to provide business and reference cash for the author and author company. That feeling diminished the value and credibility of the information. Just read it with a critical mind.

This book is an infomercial.

What disappointed you about Connect: The Secret LinkedIn Playbook to Generate Leads, Build Relationships, and Dramatically Increase Your Sales?

A few good tips, but mostly it was selling the $900 coaching program.

What do you think your next listen will be?

Something on sales and/or finance

How did the narrator detract from the book?

The narrator did a great job.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Connect: The Secret LinkedIn Playbook to Generate Leads, Build Relationships, and Dramatically Increase Your Sales?

Everything about the coaching program.

Actually useful!

I've had my share of social media books and a lot of them had extremely boring narrators AND they were the most basic information about social media. This book was very informative and exactly what I needed. I didn't know much about LinkedIn and now I feel like I know a lot more than I did and very confident in making some new connections.

Useful Prospecting LinkedIn Methods

These methods I have found useful for conducting my marketing to prospects for growing my business.

this is awesome strategy

Deep Dive into LinkedIn

Easy listening, gobs of useful information. Will review for implementation. I now need to identify a group to market my services to.

Great Content, no story

Narrator was easy to listen to. I rated it average in the story telling department, because it's not a "story' book. It's a practical, easy to understand and follow business book. Can't wait to start applying the material.

Why did I pay to be advertised to?

1st pitch, ok. 2nd pitch, fine. 3rd advertising pitch ...ugh! This book had some great pointers but reads more like a webinar than a business "how to ".

Very basic information

Call me goodbye this information if you have very little marketing experience. The book is not intended for more sophisticated marketers.
