You can add more connections by inviting trusted contacts to join LinkedIn and connect to you.
Your network consists of your connections, your connections’ connections, and the people they know, linking you to thousands of qualified professionals.
Through your network you can:
Find potential clients, service providers, subject experts, and partners who come recommended Be found for business opportunities Search for great jobs Discover inside connections that can help you land jobs and close deals Post and distribute job listings Find high-quality passive candidates Get introduced to other professionals through the people you know
LinkedIn is free to join. We also offer paid accounts that give you more tools for finding and reaching the right people, whether or not they are in your network.
Plaxo
Another great Networking site. Plaxo is different in that it allows you to keep an online adress book that sinks with Microsoft, Google, Yahoo, Apple, AOL, and even your mobile phone! Now you can have your cake and eat it too!
Take a look at the video below to get more info on the contact management feature that Plaxo has to offer. See what you think and I'd love to have your feedback on the site for everyone to view. This would help other agents decide if this is a tool that they may benefit from. I personally can't endorse it just yet as I've just discovered this feature and have not begun to play around with it.
