617 Patrick describes the 3 Phases of putting LinkedIn to work for you, whether you're managing a corporate career, you're an entrepreneur or a self-employed professional.

Phase 1: this is entry level, where you think of LinkedIn as a giant Resume -- Spoiler Alert -- Patrick says the average user of LinkedIn is spending way too much time primping and preening the "resume" portion of their profile. Patrick explains there are more valuable  tweaks to be made.

Phase 2: is when you realize LinkedIn is the best Rolodex ever invented, and provides CRM benefits for anyone in a sales capacity that you simply can't get anywhere else.

Phase 3: According to Patrick you are officially dangerous inside LinkedIn once you understand it is actually a Research Engine which can provide and endless stream of hot prospects - whether you're looking to advance your career or land new business. Patrick estimates that 80% of the groups he speaks to have no idea how to leverage the powerful advanced search features in LinkedIn.

The Thinking Man's Guide to LinkedIn feature will be in the March issue of Men's Essentials Magazine. There's also an article here: http://www.mensessentialsmagazine.com/617-patricks-lethal...
