Testimonial for Sandy's Master mind groups
My wife is in the first Master Mind group that Sandy Walden started and says it's the best group of gals she's partnered with in a long time - if ever. Pat says it's good for her and praises it highly. And when Sandy said she wanted to start another group I was right there signing up.
At our second meeting the group agreed there might be a better way than chasing after business, and running around to networking groups, etc. We thought it would be desirable to have people come looking for us and our services. Less than 48 hours after we decided that and put that intention out there, I got three calls with new business; a call out of the blue, an opportunity to team up with someone that had been meaning to call me and an offer to do a second project with a fairly new client.
It means what I say it means.

LinkedIn Training with Wayne C. Breitbarth
Welcome Back Everyone
I hope this note finds you with you having had a great week of networking and adding connections. If you check your network statistics each week you will definately feel better about the efforts you are putting in. I heard several great success stories this week about how people are making connections that are leading to actual business and several others landing interviews by using Linkedin. Keep the stories coming.
Here are your tips for this week:
Profile Tips--
You should be sure to use the first person ("I") to describe yourself and not the third person ("he" or "she")
Have you used words to descibe the results of your work instead of just listing your function?
Previous jobs: Have you given a description of which projects you did or which results you achieved in each previous job?
Have you written down 5 personal interests?
Have you filled in the 3 websites? And given them a specific name..Not "My Company", jazz it up abit.
Connection Tips--
How many questions of comments have you posted in any Alumni Group you are in?
Have you listed all your previous employement and searched them specifically?
How many times have you used "status update" (or what are you doing now") since you joined, get going on this.
How many recommendations have you written since you joined, remember my story about how to have a great Monday am?
Wildcard Tip or Question--
Try one of the Applications like Slide Share, or Box Net or Amazon Book List. Not only are you making available more pictures, powerpoints, pdfs, excel docs and word docs you are also making your self much more interesting than those people who do not use these powerful tools. They are a way to differentiate yourself in a world when that just may make the difference of getting the sale or the job. Also remember whenever you post something on your profile like an application change you are announcing that to your entire #1 connections, so why wait!
Miscellaneous News and Notes--
Here is my upcoming schedule for teaching/speaking so you can share with other friends, relatives and business associates, JobSeeker events are noted accordingly, you can contact the venue directly for more information and registration other than the events noted as "Open" which in that case they can contact me directly

I hope this note finds you with you having had a great week of networking and adding connections. If you check your network statistics each week you will definately feel better about the efforts you are putting in. I heard several great success stories this week about how people are making connections that are leading to actual business and several others landing interviews by using Linkedin. Keep the stories coming.
Here are your tips for this week:
Profile Tips--
You should be sure to use the first person ("I") to describe yourself and not the third person ("he" or "she")
Have you used words to descibe the results of your work instead of just listing your function?
Previous jobs: Have you given a description of which projects you did or which results you achieved in each previous job?
Have you written down 5 personal interests?
Have you filled in the 3 websites? And given them a specific name..Not "My Company", jazz it up abit.
Connection Tips--
How many questions of comments have you posted in any Alumni Group you are in?
Have you listed all your previous employement and searched them specifically?
How many times have you used "status update" (or what are you doing now") since you joined, get going on this.
How many recommendations have you written since you joined, remember my story about how to have a great Monday am?
Wildcard Tip or Question--
Try one of the Applications like Slide Share, or Box Net or Amazon Book List. Not only are you making available more pictures, powerpoints, pdfs, excel docs and word docs you are also making your self much more interesting than those people who do not use these powerful tools. They are a way to differentiate yourself in a world when that just may make the difference of getting the sale or the job. Also remember whenever you post something on your profile like an application change you are announcing that to your entire #1 connections, so why wait!
Miscellaneous News and Notes--

Hello All
Welcome to Wayne's Linkedin Tips & Helps Vol #1.
I see many of you have really taken off adding connections and improving your profile since you attended the Linkedin Speed Training or heard me present at another Linkedin event. This effort will serve you well in increasing your reach and message for the branding and marketing you are spending time and effort on.
Each week I will attempt to bring a few things to your attention that will either reinforce some of the things we talked about or something "brand new" as relates to your adding connections, improving your profile or general linkedin efficiency. Let's get started, here are this week's helps:
Profile Tip--
Did you finish your profile to 100% complete so you are 40 time more effective on Linkedin, remember, why do it unless you are the most effective you can be?
If not here are some of the things you need to do:
-Entering current position
-Filling in two past positions
-Providing your education history (The more you list the more searching you can do automatically)
-Adding your profile summary (Remember the key words are soooooooooo important for searching effectiveness)
-Upload a profile photo (Do you want people to remember you from the event last night?)
-Give and receive recommendations. (Want to feel good about yourself, recommend a few people--right now!)
Connection Tip--
Did you download the Linkedin Outlook Toolbar? Do this by clicking the link at the bottom of the Linkedin Home page and follow instructions.
Wildcard Tip or Question--
Have you formulated a strategy?
Why are you on Linkedin?
What are you looking to achieve?
Who are your customers and what would their profile look for?
Miscellaneous News and Notes--

Hey Joe 9/22/09
Hey Joe,
See you all tomorrow.
Last week I mentioned that I am always happy to send along a note from the attendees to the group.
I can't always take notes or get them processed, but if send them to me, I'll be happy to pass them along.
Congrats to Sandy on her new office in New Berlin.
Sandy says, "I have added Reiki classes and a couple of workshops to the website. www.SandyWalden.com. More workshop opportunities to be added soon, hopefully in the next week.
Also, of great importance to me and a real opportunity for others to feel good as well. $10. of each Reiki or coaching session, class or workshop which is scheduled during September will be donated to WOCA, Wisconsin Ovarian Cancer Alliance in the clients name. Feel the love? Fore more information, I encourage others to visit their site and consider making their own contribution in some way. This could be thru direct giving, encouraging a business they frequent to offer a one-time gift or percentage of some sort. If they need more ideas, give me a shout. First and foremost, I encourage others to inform themselves about ovarian cancer and share the info with the women in their lives. www.WisconsinOvarianCancer.com"
And we had a guest, Ryan Jenness, last week who is looking for new insurance agents. He will not be able to attend this week, but enjoyed the group.
The Best Small-Business Opportunity in America!
As a Farmers Agent, you’ll be given the opportunity to:
- Be your own boss and gain independence
- Gain personal achievement and career satisfaction
- Be in business for yourself, but not by yourself
- Create job security
- Gain community stature

Ranked in the top 2 of all insurance companies to sell for in America!
