Social selling is reeds een paar een trend. Wat is Social Selling? Voor wie is het bedoeld? Hoe doe je dan? Is dat enkel het gebruik van LinkedIn? Welke stappen moet je door? Wat zijn de gevaren?
This document discusses social selling and provides tips for salespeople to use social media effectively in their work. It begins by noting that companies set sales quotas for salespeople each year. It then provides advice on using social media to build trust and relationships with clients, engage with influencers in a client's network, and share useful content daily. The document outlines a 5-step approach to social selling and suggests using tools like LinkedIn and Twitter to find sales triggers and see what clients are discussing. It emphasizes becoming a "master curator" of others' content over creating one's own and making social selling efforts measurable.
This twitterchat will look at a numbers of angles for social media polices within companies. During the session I discussed and share my views with the audience on how to create a policy, to why and how to make it attractive.
Whether you like it or not sharing content on LinkedIn will help your create your personal brand as well as your Company visibility. However, most people and companies have no idea what to share. Therefore I have brought together these 50 posts from 33 companies and organisations as a source of inspiration on what to share on LinkedIn. When you take a look at this list, I am convinced you will not be able to say that you have no content to share.
