LinkedIn works because you attract supply (e.g professionals) with the draw of getting the personal recommendations/network effects for free and then make money off demand (e.g employers/recruiters) by letting them pay to win and send you spam.
Two-sided marketplace businesses are supposedly the hardest to get off the ground. Especially if you're trying to charge for something that is currently offered for free.

I think the value add is that you can traverse a network of recommendations (u -> your friend -> their recs etc).
