Overview

Are you in a relationship-driven business and want to know how LinkedIn can help you close deals faster? Cut through the “social media noise” with The Power in a Link and learn why you as a professional should be on LinkedIn, and how it’s much more professional than social. TPL takes a unique position as it explains the strategic advantage of this platform, following Dave Gowel’s unique journey, acting as a case study for the success you can have by following the principles he suggests. Dave was an Army Ranger in Iraq; taught as an MIT Assistant Professor; then became a Rockefeller business partner… and all before his 30th birthday.TPL delivers the understanding you need to map your network, directly stimulate word of mouth, get the business intelligence you desire or be ushered into your target market to close deals faster. Foreword by Roger Staubach.
