Things you will learn in this episode:
* If you’re using automation to start sales conversations on LinkedIn, you’re not only breaking LinkedIn’s user agreement, you’re coming off as inhuman and insincere… like a “bot.” You might as well be a bot if you’re using it because you’re not starting the relationship in a genuine way. It’s tough to make that shift from automation to an authentic conversation, especially when many people can tell when you’re using a bot. — Bob Woods
* Why Am I in LinkedIn Jail? Here are some reasons your account is restricted: 1. An unusually large number of profile views 2. The name used in the account profile is in violation of LinkedIn’s User Agreement 3. They’ve detected inappropriate or illegal activity (often reported by others) 4. You are using automation that breaks the User Agreement 5. They are detecting a login that is suspicious and believe you may be getting hacked — Brynne Tillman
