PS - I think the speaker for next week is Brian Traichel - I just went online to see who he was since the name wasn't familiar to me and there's a Brian that is a LinkedIn Expert and Sales Trainer.

Oh, maybe it's Brian. I just took it off our Google Doc of speakers. I'll do some research on that. Thanks, Kat Palmiotti
