What is Social Selling?

You’ve heard the term “social selling” thrown around all over LinkedIn™ and social media, but what is it, really? In a nutshell, social selling uses social media platforms like LinkedIn™ to build meaningful and genuine relationships to connect with potential customers.

LinkedIn™’s algorithm rewards those who use social selling skills with:

  • Increased reach: With over 500 million members worldwide, LinkedIn™ provides an expansive pool of prospects to connect with, and social selling allows engaged LinkedIn members to capitalize on the massive potential.
  • Improved engagement: Creating content your network enjoys, understands, relates to, and looks forward to will inevitably generate new and improved levels of engagement for your LinkedIn™ profile.
  • Greater conversions: When done correctly, social selling can result in more sales conversions than traditional, old-school selling methods like cold outreach.

Why Social Selling on LinkedIn™ Matters

The days of traditional sales processes are over. Every dominant business today relies on creative strategies and social media platforms like LinkedIn™ to drive leads, sales, and conversions.

The reason is simple: customers today want relationships, not transactions. LinkedIn™ provides the perfect platform to build those relationships. In the modern era of sales development and prospecting, it’s important to note that:

74% of buyers see LinkedIn™ as a trusted source of information in the first buying stage, compared to 34% in 2018 (Gartner)
65% of the buying journey is done entirely online, without any interference from sales reps (McKinzie)
According to Gartner, the modern sales rep spends 6 hours online researching potential clients

How you portray yourself online — and how you connect with others — matters now more than ever. Avoid mistakes, engage appropriately, and grow your brand.
