Why do men approach women on LinkedIn when they would never act that way in real life? Why do people send a sales pitch DM immediately after connecting? People seem to act in strange ways with a keyboard, often very differently to the way they would in person. In this episode of LinkedInformed I had the pleasure of chatting with Jacob Elton about this fascinating topic

We don't agree on everything but I think you will find this discussion valuable.

Business development on LinkedIn.
