Getting Started With LinkedIn in Less Than 20 Minutes Per Day

In 2017, the buyer is in charge and they are looking for you and your products or services. If you are using social selling as part of your sales process, one of the first places your prospects will find you is on LinkedIn.

How much time you spend is a personal choice, however in less than 20 minutes a day, you have the ability to connect, engage, and listen to the your prospects build their trust and offer solutions.
