1. People Also Viewed – When you visit your client’s profile, on the right hand column you will see “People also viewed”on the top right side. Although this isn’t perfect, often many of the others that appear here resemble the profile of your client. And, as you find others in this list that you identify as new prospects, you can click through to their profile, and it will suggest more. You will also find others within their company that you may want to connect with as well.
