Boosting My LinkedIn Connections
Thursday, April 04, 2019
So by now most members of my contact list have received a phone call and two postal mailings from me; many have lunched with me.
I’d like to connect to them in LinkedIn.
LinkedIn requires I know something about a person before I can issue an invitation.
Something like their email address.
Heh heh!
The email address that The Prospector hands to me on a plate each morning.
I might set up a query in Access that throws up records which
(1) indicate that I am not yet Linked In and
(2) have a valid email address.
It’s a start!
The Database
.. will need a field that tells me whether
(1) I have asked for a connection (“A”)
(2) I have made a connection (“M”)
A better scheme might be
(1) The date on which I last asked for a connection
(2) I have made a connection (“M”)
With a date value I can revisit records in a decent sequence.
The Query
... would show those active records for which the status field does NOT read “M”, in ascending date sequence.
A simpler scheme would set the date to be in the year 2099 once I’d made a connection.
Or three years ahead so that I can “renew our vows”!
