Editor's Notes
- The Internet has transformed how information is created and accessed, and how people connect and collaborate. As a result, the way the world works is fundamentally changing. Professionals need to be more responsive and make faster and better informed decisions to perform in an accelerated business environment. Enter LinkedIn. There is now a single, global community of professionals from which a magical new data asset emerges. With more than 175 million professional members representing companies in more than 200 countries and territories, LinkedIn is the world’s largest professional network on the Internet. These millions of professionals are adding information to their profiles, sharing important insights, and building their networks every day on LinkedIn.
- The world is changing Significant shifts Peers/social networks/conversations at the pub Forresster said 91% Other sources: Case studies, factsheets, website reviews, blogs, industry websites. So much information available to people. They have a good idea of what they want before they speak to a Sales person. You end up just competing on price. Cold calls don’t work. We don’t like them. I think we all know this. We just didn’t have a better way.
- First and foremost LinkedIn sales navigator makes sales reps successful by helping them to build pipeline. Consider for a moment that even the best marketing groups produce no more than 30% of the leads for a sales force. The majority of pipeline then is being driven by sales reps not marketing and in order to hit their numbers sales people need to actively drive pipeline. Sales Navigator helps make reps successful in driving pipeline in three key ways: 1. Finding people One of the most inefficient and difficult things in the selling process for both buyers and sellers is when a seller is chasing the totally wrong person. LI SN helps sales people navigate through it’s 225 million member network efficiently to quickly find the right people 2. Identify what to talk about? There’s nothing more annoying than when a sales person has no context about you or your business and leads with product before they know if you have any interest. The LinkedIn network generates 2B member updates per week. You can see what prospects and decision makers are discussing, sharing and joining 3. How do I get a warm intro? Buyers dislike cold calls probably as much as us sales people do. TeamLink. A unique SN feature that I’ll be showing during the demo, allows you to see who in your company- even if you’re not connected- is connected to a potential decision maker. It allows you to leverage the full power of your company and extended network to leverage common connection, get warmer introduction and conduct fewer colder, awkward conversations.
- Visibility – reporting Who: make sure doing searches. What: Make sure everything is customised and adding value to the customer. Not cold emails. How: Make the introductions. Encourage others to. Connections: Connect with people. You should have largest network. Profiles: Be a thought leader. Share thoughts and ideas.
