Find the Members You Know

Your network of connections represent the "mouths" of word-of-mouth referrals. These people are willing to put their reputation on the line for you and your agency. Personally, for me to put myself on the line for someone else, I need to know them well and trust them. So let’s start by finding some of your clients:  

It’s easy to find all the Members you already know

The best place to start is to find all of the other members on Alignable you already know and invite them to join your network by inviting them to Connect with You.

Two Ways to Find Them:

The Quick Way - Use the email addresses in your address book

When you upload your address book we'll match it against the millions of small business owners on Alignable and show you all the matches. From the list you pick the ones you want to invite to Connect with you. To search your address book Click on this link.

The Slow Way - Cruise the local directory or search for someone by name:

Directory of Members in Your Community (you can also use search to find a specific person or business by name).  Note as a free user you can only connect with members in your community.  

Note: Connecting with members the slow way also uses one of your monthly connection credits. These vary by membership level. Connections made through your address book do not use credits so it’s the best way to connect with all the members you know all at once and to expand your network beyond your community.

Don't forget to take advantage of the door that opens each time a Connection request is accepted. Use Messages to say thanks for connecting and invite the person to continue the discussion over coffee or stopping by. Your goal here is to SPARK a conversation turning all connections into trusted relationships!
