Did you see the latest study showing that 80% of B2B leads today come from LinkedIn?
Generating new business from LinkedIn is pretty simple — if you know how.
Follow this guide consistently and you should see results within 7–10 days.
Time required
Spend 15 minutes every morning, 15 minutes every afternoon, and 10 minutes every evening on completing these activities LinkedIn.
Regular Activities
- Reply to any comments or posts you’re tagged in
- Accept new connection invites*
- Check your notifications
- Check your inbox
- Check who’s viewed your profile and invite anyone new to connect
- Post a Call to Action post
- Send connect requests (with a short intro message) to 20 people who are in your industry and would be a useful contact
- Send connect requests (with a short intro message) to 20 people who would make ideal clients
- Like and comment on 3–7 posts from other people
- Invite anyone who has viewed your profile to connect
- Post something: this could be a link to an article or news, a direct shout-out for new business, a testimonial from a client, or an update on a recent personal achievement or challenge
*Only reject connect requests if they seem spammy, fake, or irrelevant. Accept invites even if you don’t know the user. Every time you gain a new connection, their 1st connections become your 2nd connections. You gain the ability to connect with these 2nd connections and make them part of your network. Think of every new connection as a new door opening!
