The Definition of ProspectLinker




















To ensure that we are clear about what ProspectLinker is, I would like to define the company name for you first.

What does ProspectLinker (for short, I'll use "pL") mean?

I would like to focus on the word "prospect" and a couple of the meanings in the photo above (cited from dictionary.com):

Definition: A potential customer or candidate
-- pL is currently a community of smart people who include
technologists, designers, architects, investment bankers, financiers, product managers, consultants, engineers, marketers, entrepreneurs, advertisers, venture capitalists, asset managers, Ph. D's, students (undergrads and grads) and more. These people are all potential customer types and / or candidates.

Definition: A view or outlook on a subject or situation
-- The pL community will provide their views and outlook on any subject or situation that people are interested in.

This leads me to answer...

What is ProspectLinker?

ProspectLinker is a community that links people who share their views, ideas, and thoughts with each other. People engage in conversations with professionals, who could be inside or outside of their own personal networks, to gain each others' insights and viewpoints.

For example, you might need the viewpoint of a potential customer for your business, who happens to be out of reach and is outside of your network. In this situation, where do you turn? Social networks like LinkedIn and Facebook?

Often times, it's difficult and unduly time-intensive to get introductions to specific people who are outside of your network, especially if it's just to get their viewpoint, thoughts, or ideas regarding an issue you are experiencing. This is where pL can help. ProspectLinker establishes a platform for people to channel their ideas, expertise, feedback, and thoughts on issues into a forum that may be easily accessed by others seeking insight.

Join our community now to:


(1) Start a conversation amongst a wide range of people from whom one can gain insight;

(2) Give your take on current conversations and see what other smart people have to say; and

(3) Invite others who have been requested from your network into conversations to help add perspective and value to the community

Thanks in advance for your interest.

Cheers,

Andre Charoo
President
