{E67} How *not* to connect on LinkedIn

Ah.LinkedIn..the one we love to hate? I’ve been on LinkedIn forever and it seems that some things never change…What am I talking about? I’m pretty open about who I accept on LinkedIn that is until you do one of the things that is my biggest pet peeve.

What is that you ask? The “pitch” email one second after we’ve connected! Why? Why do people insist on doing this? Instead, why not try to actually work on networking?!

Key Takeaways:

  • Instead of just pitching people one second after you’ve connected try to find something in common
  • Ask yourself, would I do this offline? Social media is no different!

  • Surround yourself with people who lift you up. Hustle rubs off!
  • You can’t have a successful business if you are not committed to it.
  • You don’t have to be at the same place in business as your mastermind peers but you have to bring the same amount of drive to the table.

Hustle rubs off. Surround yourself with dreamers and doers! Talking accountability and #masterminds…

{E64} Fast Fix Fridays #19 How to get rid of those pesky Google+ invites from your calendar?

Take back your calendar! I don’t know about you but I’m tired of all those Google+ invites that are clogging up my calendar.

Turns out it’s less of a Google+ problem (much to the dismay of many) but a little calendar setting that is causing your calendar to be filled up by events you have no intention of going to.

Get rid of those pesky Google+ invites from your calendar once and for all! #timemanagement…
