Because you are one of many people I suggest, I wanted to invite you to gain access to my network o-n Linked-in. > > Basic account is free, and it will take less than a minute to sign up and join my community. This poetic https://linkedin.com/pub/angel-recalde/41/41a/55 URL has a myriad of rousing suggestions for the meaning behind it. I have received well over 35 announcements like this, worded almost precisely the same manner. The senders have acted amazed and offended that I didn't start to reap the benefits of this request. Let us look at the dilemmas in this request from the marketing viewpoint. * The vast majority of the invitations I received were from people whose names I didn't identify. Why would I want to be a part of their network? The request doesn't say who they are, who they've access to and how I would reap the benefits of their network. * What's Linked In, how does it work and what are the advantages of using it? No-one has yet explained this clearly in their request. You cannot expect that some-one receiving this invitation knows what you're asking them to participate or how it would be beneficial to them. It would be useful to have a passage or two explaining how it works and citing a certain result anyone behind the request liked from membership. It may be that people think that since 'basic membership is free,' the conventional person of this invitation may go-ahead and join. But even when it does not cost money, joining would devote some time. You still need to 'sell' people on taking a free action, specially with respect to a task or organization that could be new to them. * No one got some time to head off possible misconceptions or objections for this account. As a non-member of Linked-in, I am concerned that joining would open me up to a lot of mail and telephone calls by which I would have no interest and that would spend my time. Again, you can not assume that anything free is thereby enticing; you need to imagine why some-one might have doubts or dismiss the theory and handle these arguments. * Using a canned request that's almost the same as everyone else's does not make a great feeling. Even if the text provided by Linked In were effective, which it is not, you'd desire to give your own personal stamp to it. Besides being irritated that they're obviously encouraging people to send invitations that make little sense, I have nothing against Linked In. Perhaps it's a helpful organization. My position is that its members have to use good sense and fundamental marketing maxims to promote busy, skeptical people-to give the opportunity to it..
