Social Selling
Using social media for lead generation – what we like to call Social Selling – is where the most successful salespeople are concentrating their efforts in today’s extremely competitive digital marketing landscape. We can teach you and your team how to master social selling.
Consumers start the buying process online
Innovative salespeople and sales teams understand the buying process is happening with or without them. So if your salespeople are not online and leveraging social media sites to build and promote their personal brand and the products they sell, they are likely missing sales opportunities.
Adapt or get left behind
Today’s salespeople need to be able to adapt and stay relevant with today’s consumers, which means becoming a hybrid of traditional sales expert who communicates via phone, email and voicemail, mixed with an individual who has a strong social presence, social clout and thought leadership.

Social Selling: Learn how Social Media Can Transform Your Selling Strategies
- How can we increase our sales pipeline?
- How can our sales team be involved in our buyers’ journey?
- How can we outperform our competitors?
If any of these questions are resonating with you, it may be time to ditch your cold calling scripts and re-evaluate your current, more “traditional” selling tactics.
Using social media for lead generation, or what we like to call “Social Selling”, is where the most successful sales reps are concentrating their efforts in today’s extremely competitive landscape. That’s because innovative sales managers understand that consumers are primarily starting their buying process online. And more importantly, this buying process is happening with or without the guidance of your sales reps. So if your sales reps are not online and leveraging social media sites like LinkedIn, Xing or Viadeo to build and promote their personal sales expertise, they could be losing sales opportunities they didn’t know they had.
