How Tom Popomaronis used LinkedIn to nab his first client [Baltimore Business Journal]: “I’ve invested about $750 in InMail. When we were in the development phase we sent out notes to senior developers in e-commerce, leaders in this space to find out why or why not they would use this. A senior director at Skype understood what we were doing. We had asked for feedback and if he’d be willing to look at the link. He understood what we were doing, responded in length and ended up being an advisory board member. He’s now leading our client relationship with Skype. How we got there was a cold outreach to him that ended up being very warm.”
