Norvin,

The best approach is to contact LinkedIn directly. I’ve seen that they’ve acted fairly quick in the cases I’m aware of.

I’m all about LinkedIn groups but how do you get control of a group if someone else is using your company identity?

Joyce,

Thanks for the comments. Let me know what you think of the books. Also one thing that’s not in the book is how to add video to your LinkedIn profile. Tomorrow’s post will be “How to Add a YouTube Video to LinkedIn using Google Presentations”.

Sean–wonderful advice to a novice who was wondering just how to use LinkedIn. I’ve ordered your books and am looking forward to receiving them and maximizing the networking opportunity to help many people personally and professionally through a Pre-Paid Legal Services membership.

Awesome article, Sean,

Thank you for the advice on joining and creating groups. There is so much information and advice that can be gained through linked-in. I have only joined about 10 groups so far. I guess I need to get it in gear!

Thank you again for sharing your knowledge about groups.

David,

For the longest I kept one group in reserve. I’m finally going through and evaluating the benefits of some of the groups. Have to make sure I’mm keeping 50 productive groups.

Hi Sean,

Good info!! Too many that are on LinkedIn completely overlook joining groups. I try to tell friends the value of membership in many groups. I currently am in about 47 groups. I know that I could max out to 50 and then drop a group to pick up another, but leaving a few available for when something sounds interesting, allows me to jump on it on the spot rather than searching to see which group to drop prior to adding the new one.
