Here are the highlights of this episode:

Brynne and her team helps those who wants to grow their business by leveraging LinkedIn platform from a content, prospect, and networking perspective. There as salespeople who said that they need more conversation time to sell to reach out to the top of the funnel, and those especially struggling with 'connect and pitch' or 'bait and switch'. People need to grow their business and they know that they need to use LinkedIn but they're not quite sure how. She tells us to think of LinkedIn as networking event to start conversations and build relationships but not go at it as a sales pitch. Brynne can really help because she practice what she preach. She and her team are good in what they do and they're affordable, too.

Brynne’s Valuable Free Action (VFA): She advises to check your clients who truly support you then search and filter their connections; make at least 8-12 people that you want to meet. Ask their permission to use their name or ask them to introduce you to them. By doing this, it will fill your pipeline very quickly at a high level of credibility.
