We are firmly in the digital age.  More buyers are researching online before speaking to someone in sales. LinkedIn, as of 2024, has over 1 billion users worldwide (38 million in the UK). That’s half of the population of the UK.  92% of buyers want to buy from a salesperson known as a thought leader. Use LinkedIn to showcase your skills and build your personal brand. It is the first way to build a connection and demonstrate authority and credibility in the field.  Outline of This Episode [1:28] Why a compelling LinkedIn profile is important [4:51] The elements that have an impact on sales [6:34] How to tell your professional story on LinkedIn  [8:34] Balancing professionalism and personality  [11:07] How often to update your LinkedIn profile  [12:31] Tools to improve your LinkedIn profile [15:09] Laura’s top LinkedIn profile dos and don’ts  [17:54] Harness the power of LinkedIn Resources & People Mentioned LinkedIn SSI Score Connect with Laura Hayton Connect on LinkedIn Connect With Paul Watts  LinkedIn Twitter  Subscribe to SALES REINVENTED Audio Production and Show notes by PODCAST FAST TRACK https://www.podcastfasttrack.com

Why You Should Take a Genuine Interest in Your LinkedIn Connections per Perry van Beek, Ep #386

If someone wants to buy something sizable, they want to find the best person to help them. Most people turn to Google for answers.

When you approach someone with genuine interest and care about their outcomes, you’ll see success on LinkedIn. But don’t take my word for it—listen to this episode with Perry van Beek to learn more.
