"You were great. Thanks so much for your personal branding presentation. The group will definitely want you back to discuss LinkedIn. They couldn't stop commenting on how the brief time you spent on LinkedIn equates to higher value content than hours long LinkedIn training/webinars they previously took. So bravo!"
