Hi Sue
Thank you once again for attending the Swinburne Speed Networking event yesterday. Student feedback was excellent and several students commented on how helpful your session was and wish they could have spent more time with you.
I look forward to reading your book and gaining further insights into LinkedIn.
Attached is a photo of you in action!
It was great to finally meet you after hearing about you for several years and receiving your newsletters. I will be in touch about another Swinburne event later in the year, if you are free. I am also keen to see if there are other ways I might be able to promote the Camberwell Network to international students as a way of helping them connect with Australian business people.
Thank you again, Olivia

Hi Sue,
Thanks so much for your informative email and your very helpful LinkedIn tips, and for talking to us yesterday as well. I will definitely follow your tips to improve my LinkedIn account. Hopefully I’ll see you again in Camberwell on the 20th.

Julie
