Great story, great pseudonyms, and a simple distinction: Smarty cares about you, while Pimply cares only about himself.

Interestingly, I looked up Pimply McClueless’ company site, and I actually reached out to them a long time ago. No database? No SalesForce? I’d be surprised if there wasn’t. They already have tons of info on me, and he reached out to me via LinkedIn. Some stuff I just don’t understand.

I’m starting to see that happen on LinkedIn as well. I get maybe one a week, but I also get folks who sometimes seem to want to connect simply to reach into companies I’ve worked with. But I also used LI during a job search a year or so ago for the same reason and thought the experience was a good way to match simply because you could see what the recruiter was able to publicize about themselves and vice versa.

I’ve never been pitched on Linked-In…however, I do get periodic phone calls & emails. One particular woman who has called me three times was particularly entertaining as I believe that she couldn’t spell “SEO” if I gave her the first two letters.
