Make the connection meaningful: LinkedIn tips for network building

As most people are now aware, LinkedIn is the main social media platform for you to build trusted professional relationships. 

But with LinkedIn limiting the amount of connection requests you can send, hitting the connect button without adding a personal message could be a big mistake. 

I mean, you wouldn’t meet someone new and go in for a hug before you said hello, right? 

Just hitting ‘connect’ with no intro message or conversation starter is a missed opportunity to build a connected and potentially lucrative business relationship.
