“There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to using LinkedIn but there is a framework you can follow”
Key Takeaways:
Mindset shifts
- Think of LinkedIn as a Social Network instead of Social Media
- Marathon not a sprint
- Behave online as you would do in person
Your Marketing Master Key is an asset which outlines:
- Who your target audience is
- Customer profiles of the people you need to start conversations with
- What makes you different to your competition and others in your market
- The key problems your products/services solve for your customers
- The next step you want your prospects to take when they are curious to find out more
If you’re using LinkedIn without your marketing key then you’ll end up using it tactically rather than strategically and will limit the opportunities you can gain from it
