re: Ryze vs. LinkedIn |

I use 3 networks regularly to build my business contacts, Ryze, LinkedIn and Ecademy.
Here is what I use them for:
Ryze ---- My main tool for connecting with small business people. This has resulted in my finding both suppliers and clients. Ryze has worked well for sales of my e-books, and coaching services and for building subscribers to my newsletter and generating members for my Free Traffic Bar.
A great source of referrals.
Ecademy ------- My main tool for expanding into Europe. Ecademy has also worked well for selling e-books and coaching and building subscribers and members. Another great source of referrals.
LinkedIn -------- My tool for reaching "influencers." People in larger companies and organizations, association executives, media etc. Connecting with these people gives me the capability of reaching 1,000s with a single connection.
So all 3 have their use, and I don't consider one better than the other. The "hammer" and "screwdriver" analogy is apt. The trick is to find out how to use them successfully for your own business.
