“LinkedIn is such a powerful social media platform, and so many people I'm finding are just starting to jump on and get involved in it.” – Jennifer Darling

“Using LinkedIn, we could just really hone in and talk about business. We can have relationships that are less personal, more professional, and there's some really cool tools in LinkedIn that you can take advantage of, that you can't take advantage of in Facebook.” – Jennifer Darling

“When you put content on LinkedIn, it becomes searchable outside of LinkedIn, so you can get searched on Google and other search engines. And being with the content you're putting on LinkedIn and your profile searchable, that's not something that happens with Facebook.” – Jennifer Darling
