Irish Law: An Insider's Guide. 1. http://scholarship.law.nd.edu/irish_law/1 This Book is brought to you for free and open access by the Law School Publications at NDLScholarship. It has been accepted for inclusion in Irish Law: An Insider's Guide by an authorized administrator of NDLScholarship. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Welcome to Notre Dame Law School! On behalf of the Notre Dame Law School student body, we are thrilled to be among the first to welcome you to the NDLS Community! We know that this is an exciting time for you and — if you are anything like we were just a couple of years ago — you probably have plenty of questions about law school and Notre Dame, whether it’s about academics, professors, student life, or just where to get a good dinner. That’s why we’ve prepared the Guide. This is called an Insider’s Guide because it has been written by students. Over the past year, we’ve updated and revised old sections, compiled and created new ones, and edited and re- edited the whole book in hopes of making your transition to Notre Dame easier. This isn’t a comprehensive guide to everything you need to know to get through law school or thrive in South Bend, but it is a great place to start. Whether you’re trying to figure out where to live next year, the best way to get to and around town, what law students do on the weekend, or which daycare is best for your kids, the Guide is a terrific resource. Please note that some information may have changed since the date of publication, so be sure to confirm pertinent information. We all treasure our experiences here at NDLS. The professors, the students, and the staff of the Law School are unique — their warmth, friendship, and true support have made studying law at Notre Dame a pleasure. We hope that our enthusiasm will be apparent throughout the Guide. We have appreciated reflecting on our experiences here and enjoyed putting the Guide together for you. Although we know that you will receive a variety of additional information from the Law School and the University, we hope that this look at NDLS from the perspective of your soon-to-be colleagues will be valuable as you prepare to start here in August.

  • How “Social Selling” Is Reinventing Cold Calling
    OCTOBER 2013 How “Social Selling” Is Reinventing Cold Calling Ralf VonSosen (LinkedIn), interviewed by Robert Berkman REPRINT NUMBER 55203 MIT SLOAN MANAGEMENT REVIEW How “Social Selling” Is Reinventing Cold Calling At LinkedIn, the sales staff has become well-versed in the use of social media tools to open doors for new sales, says Ralf VonSosen, the com- pany’s head of marketing for sales solutions. RALF VONSOSEN (LINKEDIN), INTERVIEWED BY ROBERT BERKMAN ocial media has opened up entirely new ways of communicating with colleagues and strangers as well as with family and friends. Ralf VonSosen, the head of marketing for sales solutions for the online professional net- working company LinkedIn, thinks a lot about using social media, particularly for communicating with sales targets. VonSosen calls this "social selling" — utilizing the relationships, connections and in- sights available in social channels to facilitate a better experience in both buying and selling. S"It's really utilizing all this fantastic data that's out there that helps us gain visibility to the connections and relationships we have," says VonSosen. "We can take that data and combine it with the branding and infor- mation that we as professionals are sharing, and create a more meaningful experience and conversation." Done right, social selling "moves our contact from a traditional cold call to either a warm introduction or at least a warm conversation," he says. In a conversation with MIT Sloan Management Review's Robert Berkman, VonSosen talked about free ways to build a personal online brand and about how LinkedIn's Sales Navigator product is being used by both large and small companies.
