Philip Calvert is an author, social network founder and specialist professional speaker, consultant and strategist helping businesses in highly regulated industries and the professional services market to leverage Social Media. I give motivational speeches at conferences on how to use LinkedIn and social media as part of your marketing and communications strategy; in particular industries such as financial advisers, IFAs, accountants, lawyers, pharma and others in specialised niches. My main focus is on helping businesses to win business by using LinkedIn, and have produced a powerful Tips booklet: http://www.ifalife.com/LinkedInforBusiness As the founder of the world's first social networking site for Financial Services professionals, I bring real-world experience and an eye-opening 'behind the scenes' view to using Social Media in highly regulated industries. My conference speeches are energetic, animated, humorous and packed with real-life examples of how companies are successfully using Social Media to engage with their customers.
