When a prospective business buyer is looking at a business, an area which is becoming more and more important in their decision making is “marketing systems”. Especially the social media marketing systems like the ones used by many larger businesses and corporations.
More and more business owners and business professionals are using social networks to build relationships, meet new contacts, market themselves and grow their businesses.
For the uninitiated, however, diving into the “virtual meet-and-greet world” can be daunting. Where to begin? For first-time users, the answer is LinkedIn.
LinkedIn was developed specifically for business owners and professionals. The site doesn’t run the risk of mixing your professional life with your private one; and with more than 135 million users (3 million in Australia as at March 2012), it serves virtually every industry and profession.
Joining a network like LinkedIn is simple, but turning it into a powerful networking tool that promotes you and your business; well that takes some knowhow and experience. See details of our workshop CLICK HERE!
Do it right and LinkedIn can really lift your professional ‘online presence’ and set you and your business up as the “go to people” for whatever product or service you are selling. It’s all about having an ‘online presence’ and being the person or business which comes up first in searches on the Internet. Become the authority and “go to business” for your area of expertise.
I am a partner in another business called Smarterworshops. Our business involves running practicable, hands on, done with you workshops where you get things done and come away with tangible outcomes. We DO NOT run fluffy feel good information workshops.
For example, with the upcoming Smarterworkshops “Hands On” Done With You LinkedIn Workshop participants will learn how to optimise their personal and business profile, promote their products and services, build a community of prospects ‘predisposed to do business with them and set themselves up as the “authority” in their field.
