“I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful webinar you presented this week to the Michigan membership. I was so proud to be able to offer sure a stellar educational experience to our attorneys. Not surprisingly, you received the very best of reviews in the webinar survey; this was in all aspects of the webinar.

“I’ve twice hosted Allison’s LinkedIn in One Hour presentation, and both times she demonstrated her amazing expertise, her client focused attitude, and practical applications for LinkedIn for professionals. Through these programs alone, she has helped over 200 legal professionals become better LinkedIn users. For many of us, LinkedIn is just another place to put info on the web, and we let hundreds of opportunities pass us by by failing to connect, missing great leads, or failing to continue the conversation. Allison will help you make the appropriate changes so that LinkedIn becomes part of your larger business strategy. It’s amazing how much more I get out of LinkedIn by following a few simple tips from her.
As a practice management adviser, it’s my job to make sure that the members of the NCBA have access to the best resources. In the area of LinkedIn, Allison is the best. Her book and her presentations are my first resource for all things “LinkedIn.” If you are looking for an expert to make your LinkedIn profile customer and colleague ready, I highly recommend Allison to you.”
