FOUR LINKEDIN MYTHS
The Truthand
The Solutions
#INBOUND16
MYTHONE
IF I BUILD IT THEY WILL COME
TRUTH #1
An All Star Profile doesnt mean youll convert profile views into clients
Make it easy for your high quality leads to contact (not just connect) with you.
#INBOUND16
REAL STORY
#INBOUND16
1. Put your phone number and your email address on your background or hero image.
2. Use a Google Voice Number and an unique email address so that you can easily track where your leads are coming from.
3. NEW UI has a new template, but the above strategies should still work
POWER ACTION ONE
#INBOUND16
Use a calendar tool like TimeTrade or Calendly.com Add to your Summary section, Website section
and Publisher PostsA lot of the folks who find your profile know they need you, but they dont necessarily need you right that second. Make it easy for them to book sometime with you in the near future on their timetable.
POWER ACTION TWO
#INBOUND16
MY PROSPECTS ARE NOT ON LINKEDIN
MYTHTWO
TRUTH #2
Enough of high quality leads use LinkedIn to make it a viable tool for you.
If you are not finding your ideal prospects on LinkedIn, its probably because you arent looking in the right places or using the right tools.
#INBOUND16
REAL STORY
#INBOUND16
Make sure to use LinkedIns Advanced Search to find exactly the right leads. If you are not getting enough results, use the Boolean modifier OR to include more search terms.
Example CEO OR founder OR owner OR partner.
If you are getting too many unqualified results, use AND and NOT to refine your search.
Example: CEO AND Medical NOT consultant.
POWER ACTION THREE: Current UI

Save your searches! You can save up to three searches on LinkedIn with the free account.
Once you have saved a search, LinkedIn will send you new prospects who fall into that search algorithm every week!

most of them are spammers anyway, or at least not high-quality leads.
