Linked – Taking your reading to networking

ByMike McBride October 17, 2017October 16, 2017 Reading Time: 1 minute

Kevin raises an interesting point.

When I read a good post or article, whether from a blogger, reporter, columnist or business person (lawyers included), I look to meet the person. Online and maybe later, offline.

If someone can add value to my life with what they’ve had to say online, maybe there’s something more to be gained through getting to know them.

I’ve connected with people through my blogs, and am always more than happy to hear from readers, and people who want to further discuss anything I’ve talked about, and it’s been fun to meet some of those folks in real life, including Kevin. Feel free to reach out!
