Posted November 9, 2011

What would your immediate thoughts be if you received this in your Linkedin inbox?

Just to add a bit of context to this email . . . I’ve never interacted with this person before and this is his first attempt at contacting me.

They contacted me by using a comment I made in a Linkedin group and replying privately.

OK class . . . over to you. 🙂
