As we build a sphere of influence connection, we collect information and intelligence to help us make informed decisions, such as whether that person would make an ideal team member.Reverse engineer yourself and your common interests and life experiences, tell your whys, tell how you can add value to someone's life, arrange a time for knowledge exchange, then have an overt call to action to turn a normal conversation into a business conversation.“The purpose of LinkedIn is to go from online to offline as quickly as possible, but it's the simplest medium to communicate with people that you don't have their mobile phone number.” – Jamie ShanksCONNECT WITH JAMIE SHANKS:Website: https://salesforlife.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamestshanks/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jamietshanksEmail: [email protected] WITH JENNIE:Website: https://badassdirectsalesmastery.com/Email:  [email protected] personal page: https://facebook.com/jbellingerPLFacebook podcast page: http://facebook.com/BadassDirectSalesMasteryFacebook group for Badass Crew: https://facebook.com/groups/BadassDirectSalesMomsInstagram: https://instagram.com/BadassDirectSalesMasteryPersonal Instagram: https://instagram.com/jenniebellingerLinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/BadassDirectSalesMasteryShow Notes by Podcastologist: Angelica RaycoAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
