00:05corporate executives, family offices, fund managers, and more can connect with actionable
00:10business deals from across the globe and in all industries. Our updated platform boasts
00:15some more agile format, streamlining the process for creating business needs and connecting with
00:19leads that are relevant for you faster than ever before. In this 3-minute tutorial, we will get
00:25you up and running by reviewing the basic functions of Opportunity Network's updated platform.
00:30Step 1. Logging in. To log in, simply click Continue with Opportunity Network and enter
00:35the email and password associated with your account. Alternatively, if you are a member
00:40of YPO or Entrepreneur's Organization, you can select either login option, which are linked
00:45to your YPO Connect or MyEO deal exchange login credentials.
00:51Step 2. Creating a need. Once you've logged in, you will see a prompt to input a business
00:56need. Simply answer the questions presented by the AI chatbot.
01:00In this example, I'm an investor looking to invest in early-stage tech companies. I'm
01:04looking to deploy up to $5 million of capital in artificial intelligence and cybersecurity
01:09companies based in the U.S. Remember, your need can be raising or investing in companies
01:15or real estate, seeking new clients and sales channels, sourcing new providers of products
01:19and services, or buying and selling companies. The system will generate a brief title and description
01:25of what you're looking for and present you with relevant leads.
01:29Step 3. Connecting with leads. From the list of leads that are generated, you can click on
01:34individual leads to read more about the company and understand why the system thought this would
01:38be a good match. If the profile seems relevant, simply click on the Request Connection button
01:43in the top right corner. You will be shown a suggested message, which you can change to be
01:47more personalized if you wish. Once you click the Request Connection button, the counterpart will be
01:52notified via email that you're interested in connecting. Not sure if you're ready to connect?
01:56Simply click the bookmark icon located to the left of the Request Connection button to save that
02:01member in your Favorites list. You can revisit that counterpart at a later time from the Favorites list
02:06located next to your list of leads.
02:11Step 4. Explore. Just like Opportunity Network's previous platform, you can search for needs posted by
02:17other users from our Explore page, giving you the ability to connect with posts from other users
02:21that are relevant to your business needs. You can search by using specific keywords. Any need that
02:26has that keyword in the title or description will appear. You can also search using pre-existing
02:31filters like geography, deal type, and industry. See a need that might be relevant? Simply click on
02:37the post for more information. To start a conversation, simply click the Connect button. Again, the system
02:43will prompt you to send a message and inform the counterpart that you're interested in connecting
02:47once you've hit the Request Connection button.
02:50Step 5. Conversations. Whenever a message is sent through the platform, Opportunity Network sends
02:56an email alert to the counterpart. Additionally, you can view all of your conversations, both requested
03:02and received, from the Conversations tab. When sending communications through this channel,
03:07the counterpart will always be informed that you've sent them a message.
03:10Step 6. Managing Your Business Needs. You can always revisit a need you've created in the past,
03:17to manage the activity associated with it, by clicking on the Business Needs tab.
03:21From here, you can review old, new, and bookmarked leads. Additionally, you can monitor the visibility
03:27of your need by making it public, private, or anonymous. Lastly, if a need is no longer relevant,
03:33you can archive it to remove it from your list of business needs. We hope this tutorial was useful
03:37to help you get acquainted with Opportunity Network's updated platform, now leveraging the power
03:42of artificial intelligence. As always, happy connecting!
