LDN, UKIt's the 2nd January 2003 and I'm out of the job I adored.
Like a train wreck, twenty-five years in sales and marketing in the corporate world had come crashing to an end in a brutal merger and all I had to show for it was a cheque. A quick calculation suggested that the money wouldn't last long.
My wise old dad told me to "...get out there immediately and network like my life depended on it".
It turns out it did.
I had only ever networked with work colleagues in City bars, so the meeting I went to that freezing January night would be a first.
I sat in the audience with complete strangers and the lady next to me (Tessa) asked what I did for a living.
"Nothing, as of today" I said.
"Then you'll enjoy tonight's speaker; he's from a very special website – I think it will help you". And she winked knowingly.
Sixty minutes later my jaw had dropped and I had discovered something truly startling. Something that would change my life. Seventeen years after that, it is still the foundation of my work.
Back in 2003 it wasn't called Social Media – it was 'Online Social Networking, and I was gripped by its possibilities. The site was called Ecademy and was the forerunner to LinkedIn.
I'm Philip Calvert and I help clients to unleash a truer, bolder, more compelling version of themselves on LinkedIn. As at today
- I've written nine books about LinkedIn lead generation...
- I've run hundreds of workshops to employees, sales people, marketers, HR professionals, CEOs & entrepreneurs, and teachers and students on how to leverage LinkedIn in the workplace
- I've spoken to thousands of people at conferences and training events around the world on how to attract leads, customers and sales with LinkedIn and wider Social Networking.
I work closely with conference organisers and meeting planners to help them sleep at night. I give their audiences a speech or presentation to remember – one that directly impacts their performance in the workplace and sales in their businesses.
The fastest I've got a new client is seven minutes, when a delegate at a conference used a technique I was explaining while I was on my feet. She told me later that she had been working on this prospect for three months with no success.
My speeches and presentation are fun, educational and get results for you. There's no theoretical fluff - just actionable content that works. You should try it...
