The Power of Facebook with Jack Daly

Hi. This is Jack Daly, and I’m the Sales and Sales Management Trainer, and I was relating to the group just a moment ago about how powerful Facebook is. In fact, in one case, I was leaving Los Angeles and I was going to Toronto for four days and then onto New York for one. And I just said, ‘That’s it. I’m going there to speak to business leaders,’ and when I got off of the plane in Toronto, I had updates from Facebook from my friends. Breakfast. Lunch. Dinner. Cocktails. ‘Thirty minutes of your time. It doesn’t matter when. I want to meet with you.’ When I got on the plane to go to New York, Thursday night, I had booked three gigs. In New York, I booked one more and, when I headed back to California where I live, on Friday, I had booked four gigs in one week just by my update to Facebook.
