Find highly targeted customers and connections.<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">&#8220;The targeting on LinkedIn is unparalleled in the realm of digital advertising. Small businesses can zero in on the exact industry, company size, and job role [of the people] they know typically would buy their product or service. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">For example, if you are selling customer support software to small businesses in the United States, you can set your advertising campaigns to only be showing to businesses [that have] under 100 employees, based in America \u2013 and within that grouping, only to executives at those companies with a customer support title.&#8221; \u2013 <\/span><b><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">Tim Peters, vice president of revenue operations at <\/span><\/i><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.doxim.com\/\"><b><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">Doxim<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/a><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"> .<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b style=\"color: var(--h2_typography-color); font-family: var(--h2_typography-font-family); font-size: var(--h2_typography-font-size); font-style: var(--h2_typography-font-style,normal); letter-spacing: var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing); text-transform: var(--h2_typography-text-transform); background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);\"><span style=\"color: #095782;\" data-contrast=\"none\"><span style=\"color: var(--awb-color5);\">2.

Clients tell us what kind of people make high-quality customers for them. We search LinkedIn for people who fit their criteria and then introduce them. (We do it, so it looks like the client is introducing themselves, but we do all the work for them.) Then we stay in touch with the people who have expressed interest, again using LinkedIn. We do daily status updates and weekly LinkedIn blog posts to keep the client&#8217;s name in front of their network. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">We also send monthly emails that share information about the problems our clients can solve for their customers and share their results with other customers. We also make offers by inviting people to a webinar or offering a whitepaper. The result is a simple, inexpensive, systematic process for lead generation, with all the work done through LinkedIn.&#8221; \u2013 <\/span><b><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">Judy Schramm, CEO of <\/span><\/i><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.proresource.com\/\"><b><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">ProResource Inc.<\/span><\/i><\/b><br \/>\n<\/a><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b style=\"color: var(--h2_typography-color); font-family: var(--h2_typography-font-family); font-size: var(--h2_typography-font-size); font-style: var(--h2_typography-font-style,normal); letter-spacing: var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing); text-transform: var(--h2_typography-text-transform); background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);\"><span style=\"color: var(--awb-color5);\" data-contrast=\"none\">3.

Do apologize for the lack of personalization in the email. LinkedIn lets you message 50 people at a time this way, and I added about 300 people to my email list with this method. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Include in your email a direct link for the email signup. In the message, you must have reciprocity: Tell them what they will receive by signing up for the email list, and offer to look at something of theirs, which is a fairly noncommittal method to garner goodwill.&#8221; \u2013 <\/span><b><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">Bradford Hines, founder of <\/span><\/i><\/b><a href=\"http:\/\/yumdomains.com\/\"><b><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">YumDomains<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/a><b><i><span data-contrast=\"none\"> and HungryKids.org.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b style=\"text-transform: var(--h2_typography-text-transform); font-style: var(--h2_typography-font-style,normal); letter-spacing: var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing); color: var(--h2_typography-color); font-family: var(--h2_typography-font-family); font-size: var(--h2_typography-font-size); background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);\"><span style=\"color: var(--awb-color5);\" data-contrast=\"none\">4. Use sponsored updates.<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">&#8220;With sponsored updates, businesses pay to push their post onto an individual&#8217;s LinkedIn feed. This &#8216;pay-per-click&#8217; or &#8216;pay-per-1,000&#8217; impression feature offers demographics similar to other social platforms (location, gender, and age), but one key differentiation is the ability to customize based on the company name and job title, job function, skills, schools, and groups. Users can target interested industries without competing against the noise of outside companies and messages. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">A sponsored update can be an excellent way to promote thought-leadership content useful primarily to the targeted audience with a strong call to action. People don&#8217;t want to see pure advertising anymore and want something useful for free. By promoting a firm&#8217;s content (whitepaper, guide, etc.) through a LinkedIn Sponsored Update, a firm can target a niche audience, increase website visitors and, if the content is compelling enough, generate sales leads.&#8221; \u2013 <\/span><b><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">Jeremy Durant, business principal at <\/span><\/i><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bopdesign.com\/\"><b><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">Bop Design.<\/span><\/i><\/b><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-style: var(--h2_typography-font-style,normal); letter-spacing: var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing); text-transform: var(--h2_typography-text-transform); background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);\"><span data-contrast=\"none\"><b style=\"color: var(--awb-color5); font-family: var(--h2_typography-font-family); font-size: var(--h2_typography-font-size);\">5.

If a post begins to gain some momentum, LinkedIn will put a spotlight behind it in one of its categories, and it can get tens of thousands of readers (or more).

Join groups \u2013 and stay active.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">&#8220;One tip I always share for small business owners is joining LinkedIn groups relevant to their target demographic. Joining groups is a great way to listen to what your audience is saying. There may [also] be times for small business owners to interact or offer their advice. More importantly, you can message the members of groups you are in, even if you aren&#8217;t connected. LinkedIn InMail adds up quickly, so this is a great way to save money when building relationships with potential clients.&#8221; \u2013 said <\/span><b><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">Lauren Covello, senior account executive at <\/span><\/i><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/garfieldgroup.com\/\"><b><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">Garfield Group<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-style: var(--h2_typography-font-style,normal); letter-spacing: var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing); text-transform: var(--h2_typography-text-transform); background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);\"><span data-contrast=\"none\"><br \/>\n<b style=\"color: var(--awb-color5); font-family: var(--h2_typography-font-family); font-size: var(--h2_typography-font-size);\">9. And create your own LinkedIn group.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">&#8220;Here&#8217;s a secret sauce to find your ideal, ready-to-buy prospects right away on LinkedIn: Create your own LinkedIn group to start. After you have your LinkedIn group set up, go out and join as many groups (LinkedIn allows you to be in 50 total) where your prospects are hanging out. The next step is to pick one of those new groups you&#8217;ve joined and start working on the Members page to find prospects. Once you&#8217;re inside the group and approved as a member, click on Members, filter the list further by searching for certain job titles or something else to winnow down the list to your ideal prospects, and invite them to join your group (tip: send personalized invitations). <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Once these invitees join your LinkedIn group, you have all your proverbial fish in the same barrel \u2013 all your best prospects in one place! You can control this LinkedIn group so that no competitors get in, and you can share great, valuable content within the group that your prospects will love. You also get to demonstrate your value and expertise for them while avoiding overt sales pitches or spam. Plus, you also have a built-in email list, a focus group of your core prospects and clients, etc. This is a great tactic to build your brand and generate leads to boost your small business.&#8221; \u2013 said <\/span><b><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">Ali Liaquat, head of marketing at <\/span><\/i><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.it-serve.com\/\"><b><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">IT-Serve.com<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b style=\"font-style: var(--h2_typography-font-style,normal); letter-spacing: var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing); text-transform: var(--h2_typography-text-transform); background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); font-size: var(--h2_typography-font-size); font-family: var(--h2_typography-font-family); color: var(--h2_typography-color);\"><span data-contrast=\"none\"><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: var(--awb-color5);\">10.Make your company page matter.<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">&#8220;It&#8217;s also important to have an updated and consistent presence for your brand with its company profile page. Imagery, colors, and content on this page should be consistent with your website and any other social media profiles the business has. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">The page should be updated regularly, so the brand is active and appears to be a current business. We&#8217;ve all had the experience of stumbling upon a company&#8217;s social media profile that&#8217;s updated once a month or hasn&#8217;t been updated in months.

Your URL is important for people who have a lot of contact with potential clients. Especially for those professional services and the B2B sector, when meeting with someone they have not yet met, many people will search Google for the name of the person they&#8217;re meeting to learn more about them.
