Why Use LinkedIn
Principles of Social Selling
Passive, Active and Proactive
Why Use LinkedIn?“People keep
telling me to use LinkedIn to find
new business, but I have absolutely no idea how!”
Fundamental Principle 1the REAL Power is in the 2nd Degree
1st Degree: everyone knows 250 people
2nd Degree: those 250 know 125 = 31.250
3rd Degree: 31.250 * 125 = 3.906.250
4th Degree: 3.906.250 * 125 = 488.281.250
5th Degree: 488.281.250 * 125 = 61.035.156.250
Fundamental Principle 1the REAL Power is in the 2nd Degree
Fundamental Principle 2the Networking Attitude
Networking Attitude = sharing information in a reactive and proactive way without expecting anything immediately in return
“Give and Receive”

Feed your prospect little snippets of content that add
value and allow them to gradually get to know you, allowing
