–Have a profile setup but not using it –Members of online groups but don’t participate –Companies who setup their LinkedIn company pages and now don’t know what to do...

TIN MAN There are people who are trying to do it :
–People using email to spam clients –Organizations using Facebook to spam prospects –Annoying people online who are the same annoying people that we would run into at networking events and conferences
