    1.) Too bad Shally cannot be paid a royalty based on the value he has created for the companies with which he has worked. Not sure where the industry would be without his contributions.

    2.) He’s obviously a smart marketer, too: “Sourcing in 10 mins or less” is powerful USP. Very Dan Kennedy.

    3.) Re: LinkedIn – 900K recruiters is one helluva big market. I had NO idea. Jason Davis, word up.

    4.) Shally’s comments at 14:45 are excellent. Would you play a golf course with just a nine iron? Not if you wanted to win! Use every club in the bag, depending on the situation.

    Shally’s contribution is golden. There are imitators plenty but he is one of the original market-makers.

  • Not a shally fan.

    You do realize that shally sells a service that lets his clients link to your network on linked in and he charges the client 10k You see none of it and are never aware of it.

    Read his OTHER company’s product offering to HIS clients.

    Yes, he is innovative, but the reality is that any other big biller knows Shally’s tricks. Sally packaged them and sold them (good for him) but you should check out his website before you think he is gods gift to recruiting and that he isnt trying to link to you just to cut you out.

    To the spinelessly anonymous “Not a shally fan” – just one point of clarification, before you go accusing people of things it may be a good idea to do a bit of research. I don’t own or have anything to do with H3.com. I once did a webinar ABOUT them, a long time ago (and it was free for anyone to attend including you) but what I want to clarify is that H3 is not my product. Please don’t go around misinforming people.
