If you're like me, you probably HATE those salesy LinkedIn messages that hit your inbox the moment you agree to connect. However, there is a RIGHT way to do social media outreach. You just need to commit to making it an ongoing part of your marketing strategy - as, in the words of the famous Pantene Shampoo ad - it won't happen overnight, but it will happen. Yes - it can be a slow process, but it's all about building the relationship first. And the sale will follow. In today's episode, I'm chatting with Mohit Ks who has discovered social media outreach methods that really work. It's a juicy episode and I know you're going to get a lot from it. Let's dive in!

I have 2 words for you - elevator pitch. If you've ever networked before, those words might leave you quivering in your ugg boots. Or you might smile from ear to ear knowing you've totally got this. Regardless of how you feel about it - being able to summarise what you do, why you do it, and who you do it for, is essential information that EVERY health and wellness business owner needs to communicate with ease. But so many of us struggle with it. And that means potentially losing a key opportunity to get our key message and impact across. Because when you nail it, people pay attention. And that could lead to a new client or a new trustworthy referral partner for continuous ongoing work. Today, I'm chatting with Janeen Vosper who has some fantastic advice to share on the topic. Including what to do - and what not to do. And without further ado, let's jump in!
