Judi Radice Hays has written a LinkedIn book with a difference, it isn’t about LinkedIn.
The mistake that pretty much all LinkedIn authors make is that the book is about the tool. Then, of course, as soon as the book is published is that it’s out of date as LinkedIn has changed.
The book “Elevate, Expand, Engage” is ahead, because it offers the reader a strategy, in which to be social, which is the secret of winning on social media. Like driving a car, you don’t need to understand how the engine works, you follow the process of driving.
I certainly recommend this book if you are moving into sales and want to understand the mechanics of selling on social. This book gives you are decent framework as well as some hint and tips that should get you started. Also, if you are a business owner and either have to “sell” as it’s your business or you want to understand what this “LinkedIn thing” is all about. Certainly, the best LinkedIn book I’ve read for a long time.

A+ for Three E’s
Judi has hit a home run by proving a practical and entertaining book that is full of wisdom on a platform (LinkedIn) that many find daunting. Even as a LinkedIn power user, I found many tips and encouragement to help myself. I totally encourage you to pick this one up, make it two. Give one away to a key client, friend or one of your staff members. You won’t be disappointed.
