How to Use LinkedIn to Get Clients. LinkedIn Marketing Tutorial. How to do LinkedIn Lead Generation in 2022. In this video, I deep dive into my LinkedIn inbox to review some of the messages I've been receiving lately. From bad to good I talk you through the power of personalization and how we use it to increase our overall response rates. I also breakdown my own templated message which although I don't fully recommend for lead gen, does provide great results when supported with great content marketing. LinkedIn is a tool that when mastered provides great opportunities for brand building and lead generation. It's not specifically quick, it can take time, but when you get it right it's extremely powerful. LinkedIn lead generation is as much of an art as it is a science. Understand the human psychology behind why we respond and you'll start to unlock ways to build relationships online that you never thought would be possible. 100 Content Ideas: https://www.pipeline44.com/p/content-...

Here's Why Social Media Doesn't Work! I always find it amusing when people say those words... "Social Media doesn't work" - I mean, you don't really believe that do you? I've worked within hundreds of different industries throughout my time in business and I am yet to find an industry where Social cannot be leveraged for more brand awareness. I've even seen content for funeral directors! This video isn't about convincing you. Deep down I know you understand the power of these social media platforms. This video is to lay out some simple steps you can take to start getting these platforms providing you with a return on the time you spend on them. It's not rocket science as I always say.

In this episode of Straight To The Point, I talk all about "How To Stand Out On The Newsfeed In 2022? | Social Media Strategy 2022". It's a topic that I heard numerous people talking about at an event I attended this week and I wanted to share my thoughts on it. There's such generic advice out there right now in relation to social media, for me, some of it is dangerous and is a shortcut to failure. In this, I wanted to break down 5 different elements that should be added to your Social Media Strategy to enable you to achieve results fast.

The Story Behind Our Latest £20k+ Deal! | Marketing Strategy 2022 In this video, I thought I would share the key points that enabled us to secure a deal that saw us travel to Northern Ireland to deliver an incredible 2 day LinkedIn & Social Selling masterclass. The series of events that took place which led to this deal is incredible and to me, it shows the real power behind Social Media. When it comes to a Marketing Strategy one of the things I see so many businesses forget is the importance of saying yes to opportunities. When it comes to the story behind our latest £20k+ Deal and the Marketing Strategy behind it, you'll start to realise that a lot of this stuff isn't rocket science. In fact, none of our Marketing Strategies are rocket science. The majority of them are focused on human behaviour and basic human relationship principles. Marketing Strategy in 2022 is not difficult, and I hope this video just shows how I'm right on this occasion. Links: Buy A Copy Of Linked Inbound: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Linked-Inbou...
