I have used it for recruitment purposes also and it was a great starting point. I suppose what makes it so sticky is that you get access to others contact so a bit of a double edge sword. Thanks Ian.

I saved well over €15000-20000 on two senior people by searching for the skillsets i needed. My only struggle is opening up my contacts - which i dont - i think it would be great if you could open up sections of your contacts as sometimes you want to link to competitors as a market networking tool but i feel you can give away a bit too much. ian Good breakdown Eoin,
