August 21, 2014: Recently, we’ve been talking a lot about Linkedin. It’s a terrific platform to publish blogs on, it’s great for lead generation, it’s even good for outreach and brand building. However, don’t take our word for it! Check out these quotes from professionals who grapple with client challenges every day, and see what they have to say about LinkedIn Groups.
“Killer content rules in social media circles and this is no different with LinkedIn Groups.”– Fiona Hamann, Problogger.net
“Avoid Posting to LinkedIn Groups from Your Profile Status Updates.”– Stephanie Sammons, Wirelessadvisor.com
“Get involved in discussions where the right folks are talking about the right topics. “ – Wayne Breitbearth, Sigma Web Marketing
“Like everything else in marketing, the first step is finding the right audience. Building authority with cyclists is completely useless to you if you’re looking to engage people in the automobile industry.” – Vincent H Clarke, The Social Media Hat
“Devote five minutes of your day to identifying LinkedIn groups and then networking within them. Use these groups to share insights, learn new things and build out your prospect list.” – Rick McDermott, Sandler Sales Training Blog
“Read the rules before you start to load up your profile & status updates with LinkedIn illegal material. As is the case with all social networks, LinkedIn has a user agreement. Read, comply & stay out of LinkedIn jail.” – Elizabeth Hall, Smartofficehelp.com blog
“Be sure that you keep up with what other group members are posting, adding comments, and liking other’s posts and that you post something of your own on a regular basis.” – Shelley Riseden, Paralegalalliance.com blog
“In most groups, they ask questions about their issues looking for insight on the best way to solve them. When you are only pushing interaction that says “buy me”, it makes it hard for the potential customer to acquire information on why they should buy from your business.” – Chris Makara, chrismakara.com
“Join LinkedIn groups. You are 70 percent more likely to get an appointment with someone on an unexpected sales call if you cite a common LinkedIn group than if you don’t.#salestips“– Tweet by Amanda Johns Vaden (@amandajohnsSWC)
“Groups are not the place for a sales pitch!” – Viveka Von Rosen, exclusive Didit.com interview
