Social Selling with LinkedIn - Basic+ for sales
When your sales team is active in a Business to Business (B2B) environment, LinkedIn is the ideal platform to generate your leads.
With over 645 million users worldwide, there is a good chance that your target group will also be present on this network.
But how do you use LinkedIn to let your sales team generate leads themselves? How do your salespeople present themselves and is this clear and convincing enough for your target group? How do they make the connection with their target group, and how do they convince the target group to make an appointment?
You can achieve all of that with LinkedIn. It can serve as a customer magnet and lead generator.
When using LinkedIn for Sales, the basics must be perfect. The profiles must be aimed at the target group, the network must be expanded with relevant connections, and the organisation’s content must be shared in the right way.
Ultimately, this must also yield something; in other words, it should lead to appointments and sales!
To achieve this, we have set up a training course that is aligned with this.
Setup of the training
Profiling - make your profile a client magnet
P – Profiling, how do you create an optimised profile that is found by the right target group, and that gives the right first impression?
A good sales profile is written with the target group in mind. It contains a catchy headline, a summary that shows what the company and this employee can do for a new customer, with a Call-to-Action, a professional photo and the right keywords.
A good sales profile works as a customer magnet.
All important components are discussed, and the newly gained knowledge is applied immediately.
Expanding the network and reach
E – Expand your reach, how do you ensure contacting the right people, and creating your reach as a consequence?
LinkedIn has an extensive search function to find the right people. We teach the participants how the search engine works, how to properly invite people, and how to handle invitations.
We also show which groups are interesting and how they deliver added value.
Add value by sharing the right content
A – Adding value, making sure you add value to your network by sharing interesting items and by interacting with others.
Your organisation has all kinds of information that your sales team can share on LinkedIn. How do they find this information, and what is the best way to share it?
How do you interact, and how do you present yourself as an authority in your field?
Success!
S – Success/Sell, this is the final, most important step. It is a natural consequence of the three previous steps.
How do you make use of the above to realise appointments? How do you fit LinkedIn into your daily work without having to spend the whole day on these activities? How will it ultimately yield returns?
