Do you love dogs?
Happy, tail-wagging, stick-chasing bundles of furry joy (okay, maybe a little drool-y)
What can YOU learn from dogs?
@MelindaThomasNY knows a lot about how humans (and dogs) behave (or misbehave)

We all have an untold story inside of us.
You either tell it, or spend the rest of your life wishing you had.

Given the sense of true "ownership" in one's efforts, makes perfect sense @GracePlaton !
Self-employed workers view their jobs more favorably than those who are not self-employed according to a recent Pew Research Center survey of employed Americans via Dana Braga @PEWResearch buff.ly/44iOa90
Excellent point, @GracePlaton !
A tectonic shift in the labor market that is undercovered in the media!
The labor force continues to evolve as freelance and part-time work popularity is on the rise, with just over a third of us workers now partaking in one of the two. buff.ly/3PCJoPk via @LaurenMagarino & Emily Sen @scrippsnews
You're so welcome @jeffsheehan! You're a fabulous collaborator and looking forward to many more opportunities to work together!
@VictorLLee Victor, TYVM for the RTs, mentions, likes, and ongoing support and friendship. I greatly appreciate it. Have an enjoyable Saturday up in #Princeton .
Yes, @GracePlaton it certainly sounds convenient but it's not clear what the purpose is - create useful content for readers? allow people to polish their "reputation"?
#LinkedIn Launches Live Test of Generative AI Posts. Key concern that it’s going to enable people to create a misrepresentation of who they are by making it incredibly easy to just fake it, post, and move. buff.ly/43T7glX via @adhutchinson @socialmedia2day
The most important principle of #networking is HAVE A PLAN.
For Thomas Gay, that plan is "Specific Intentional Engagement."

Approach (at a #networkingevent) :
Once you have engaged the person in a conversation (more about that another day), establish your desire to help the other person
Perfect Q; how would I know a great prospect for you?
Whether or not you have an immediate #referral, you've laid the groundwork for a continued conversation after the event and the building of a genuine relationship

Embrace the #opportunity that every networking event provides. Learn about the people so you can see who YOU can help.
Lower the Tension.
Build a bridge of trust. [Later, we'll explain how you can both benefit from crossing that bridge. But you have to build it first!]

This is a critical point about the #USeconomy that many people miss - #exports are not just THINGS like cars and food.
#FinancialServices and other services are a big part of growing our economy and expanding U.S. influence through the world!
Thanks @IntlTradExaminr !
The United States continues to show a positive trade balance in the services sector. The top US service export is financial services. US financial services exports reached just under US$15 billion during the first quarter of 2023.

And the best part is, you don't need a network of 100s or 1000s of people to get started!
Tom says the ideal number for you to start your outreach is 20 (yes, twenty), and that you can even get started with 10. And see results within weeks!
