Six Degrees Success Stories?

Anyone have any personal stories to share?

This week, I got an InMail response from an A list candidate who specifically told me he only responded to me after reading Dave Mendoza's write up about me.

Thanks Dave!

Good topic Julia!

I can say for a fact that being on Dave's list has given me a professional boost!

His reach really is amazing.

Agree with Jerry re: Dave's reach .. still get invitation requests on LinkedIn. I have received few comments re: Dave's write -up.. which was humbling.. That reminds me.. I have to get back to Dave's request re: french translation final edit :)

Yes, Dave has created a large and friendly community.

I crossed over 10,000 LI connections this week, thanks to being on Dave's list, and we got some new people in the "Boolean Strings" group http://www.linkedin.com/e/gis/1176637 (over 1,500 members now).

I'll see what the upcoming write-up will bring!

Thanks, Dave!

maybe you can tweet dave sightings, and give away little dave dolls with the autographs. What a great idea!

Well, personally the boost to my network has been huge but my very favorite part is walking around with Dave at conferences. He's like a rockstar. It's so funny! I am going to start selling his autograph.

Julia - your suggestion made me start thinking about this a bit. I believe Dave deserves the first "RBC Superhero Bobblehead Award".

It could be kinda cool. Maybe Dave could pass some out at RBF2!

Definitely, being featured on Dave's list or being profiled by him, is definitely a huge step in the right direction! His reach is far, evident by the number of invites I got, and still am getting!!

That may be the best idea I have ever heard Jerry!
