Business Problems Solved Podcast Leveraging LinkedIn To Energise Your Client Base - with Craig Dean
This week, Lee talks to Craig Dean, a LinkedIn expert and coach, about how we can better use LinkedIn to leverage connection, and in doing so, create clients and leads so as to fortify and grow our business.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Many believe that a LinkedIn profile is some kind of resume for a job. If a profile is tailored this way, then it can be a barrier to gaining clients. It needs to be repurposed.
- Building a client base through LinkedIn is the art of building rapport, and starting conversations that begin connections between people.
- Connecting with people on LinkedIn should be treated the same way as a real world interaction. Consider the way in which we connect at networking events, and treat the conversation the same way.
- Never underestimate the power of a powerful banner. Catching the eye immediately is crucial as it makes you instantly memorable.
BEST MOMENTS
