Fast Pitch! vs. LinkedIn vs. Facebook:

Facebook is a great social network for sharing content with Friends, and keeping in touch with people you know. However, due to the nature of the website - it is not designed for doing business. Facebook is notorious for obscene content, sophomoric features, and social activity. Remember: it only takes one comment or photo to paint a negative image of your business or brand.

LinkedIn is a resume service built within a social network. The platform offers a way to post your resume or biography, and validate your experiences through your network. LinkedIn is a powerful way for professionals to find jobs, but does not provide any outlet to truly grow your network and build your business. In fact, Fast Pitch! offers the ability to promote your LinkedIn profile and helps grow your network on both LinkedIn and Fast Pitch.

Fast Pitch! views both LinkedIn and Facebook as complementary and encourages it's members to become involved in a variety of networks. What separates Fast Pitch! from other networks however, is: 1) our robust and relevant features designed to help you market your business 2) our extremely active community 3) our first-class customer support.
