620: Using a LinkedIn AI tool (Engage AI) to write comments and stand out to prospects:
Commenting on LinkedIn posts is a proven social selling strategy, but posting "great content" or something else that is generic and blah won't help you stand out. But this LinkedIn AI tool - Engage AI - which we discuss in this podcast episode, can help.
Engage AI helps you write comments faster to the right prospects, which in turn can help you stand out and move to conversion quicker.
On this episode of "The Business Storytelling Show," I'm joined by Engage AI Managing Director Jason Tan.
