Some employees really let it all hang out there on LinkedIn. Have you "lost money" at your company because a top employee was stolen away by someone who found them via LinkedIn? I believe there's much more to social media than just a new way to form a sales pitch. The amount of information out on the internet to be mined is a bit mind-boggling. Thanks Perry!

We track the results and compare costs. We are doing HR recruiting, not making dollar sales, so things work a bit differently for us with costs, etc. But for our work, things like web banner ads on specific sites are our most effective source, followed by FB, followed by Google. We simply use the FB ads like we do Google ads - split-test & measure ads, and all ads go to the same corporate website. Andrew We've been using FB ads alongside Google ads and other website ads.
