Female Financial Advisors can Delegate with Linked in

I recently began using Linked in more actively and I am totally impressed with the results.  I asked two questions in the answer section and received great feedback.  Using linked in is like having the answers come to you instead of you doing the research.  

Before using Linked In I had been  searching for a good resource for webinars.  After learning about the Q&A section of linked in  I posted the question and ended up getting about 10 emails from experts with great information.  Not only did I learn the most commonly used resources but learned about some brand new programs that I may have never uncovered on my own.  I compiled all the answers in a single document and now have a complete line up for Webinar services.

 I posed another question recently looking for exercises for new journalers.  I believe journaling is a valuable exercise especially for female financial advisors who are consumed within a man’s world.  It’s not only a great emotional outlet but allows you to stay focused on what is important to you while keeping your creative female energy alive and well. 

Again the response to my question has been excellent, in fact I was referred to a great resource called Journal Prompts http://journalingprompts.com/  When you hover over a star a question pops up that you can use for journaling, really cool and just what I was looking for.

If you haven’t tapped into Linked In I would encourage you to do so. Most female financial advisors are already managing multiple responsibilities with barely enough time to do the daily tasks, who the heck has time for research? Well think of Linked In as your new research assistant.   In fact most all advisors should be using all three of the social media resources,Linked In, Face Book and Twitter.  If you are like me and find yourself a fish out of water when it comes to technology then go to www.WiredAdvisor.com  tell them Adri sent you and learn how they can help you too master the social media landscape.
