Linked Inbound: 8 Social Selling Strategies to Generate Leads on LinkedIn®

Read this book if you know the huge potential of LinkedIn®, but have no idea how to unlock it. Well… I am about to give you the key. At the time of writing this book, these 8 social selling strategies have generated over £138 million in new business, for my clients.

Sales and Marketing professionals, Business Leaders, Entrepreneurs and Experts pick up this book because they are worried about a weak, inconsistent or empty sales pipeline. Despite being really good at what they do, they just don’t have enough leads coming into their business and really need more clients.

Many are overwhelmed by just how much there is to do running their business or team and cannot find the time to fit LinkedIn® to their busy schedule. Most people who read this book know they need to be on LinkedIn® but are frustrated because they don’t have the knowledge to make it work. They just can’t seem to get the new business they know they should be getting.

Prospecting, lead generation and pipeline building via traditional methods are failing. Social selling gives you a competitive edge that gets you seen by your target market.

According to LinkedIn®, social selling leaders create 45% more opportunities than peers, are 51% more likely to reach quota and 78% of social sellers outsell peers who don’t use LinkedIn®.

You will really like this book and benefit hugely from it if:
