Asking for Recommendations
If you don't know Mike Mueller yet, you should get to know him by subscribing to his blog. If you do know him he was just laid off from Fidelity. As Active Rain members we support Mike in his quest for a new company who is going to be blessed with his talents.
Please reblog his post and let's go very viral with his request in his blog post below. It will only take a few minutes of your time but will open doors for Mike. Thanks!
I just started reaching out to my LinkedIn Connections for their recommendations.With a present roster of 861 LinkedIn says I can reach a audience of over 4 million! That’s a lot of humans.
Ever conscious of spam I am only wanting a recommendation from people I know or have helped in some way.
I’m sending the following email to a selected few:
Help!
I’m building a page of people who have taken the time to write something nice about me. You can find it here: http://cli.gs/Recommend
It’s part of my "Find Mike a New Job " project.
Yeah, I was laid off by Fidelity : (If I have done something to help you, have encouraged you, written or recorded a video that has helped you in any way, I would greatly appreciate a 30 second recommendation from you!
You can do this easily on LinkedIn by following the link in this message.
Want to go 2.0?
Record a video using the Seesmic video comment plugin (like Ed Bisquera did)
or or go to http://12seconds.tv/ and let me know about it.
You’ll get two things in return.
I’ll return the favor AND I’ll put your website link up on the recommend page giving you Google Juice!Bonus:
If you record a video I’ll embed it on the page and record a video for you!
If you include your Twitter Name I’ll Tweet how wonderful you really are!Want even more Google Juice? Write a guest post on http://AreWeConnected.com
I know this sounds a bit like I’m selling Ginsu knives or ShamWow but I thank you deeply for helping!

Feel like dropping your personal Recommendation on me?

BTW: On ActiveRain all you have to do is add me as an Associate and fill in the "Comment about Associate:" box with your recommendation. How do you add an Associate? Go to their profile and right above their picture is the button. Or you can just click here: Recommend Mike (yeah, it's that easy!)
