Hello Everyone,
I haven't mentioned it yet. I am the founder of a start-up that develops innovative hardware solutions in the technology sector. At the same time, I provide technical coaching and consultancy services to two different start-ups operating in the field of technology, providing strategic and operational support to their development processes. Due to this intense pace and the need to effectively manage your professional network, I use LinkedIn very actively to strengthen my connections and closely follow developments in the industry.
LinkedIn is one of the most powerful platforms for professionals, but selling here isnât like traditional sales. People donât come to LinkedIn to buy products! theyâre here to connect, learn, and get inspired.
Thatâs why the key to success isnât about âsellingâ not âserving.â So, how do you do it?
Donât Sell⌠SERVEâźď¸
1ď¸âŁShow Up Consistently
The first rule of winning on LinkedIn is to be visibleâregularly. If people donât see you, they wonât know what you offer. But this doesnât mean spamming; itâs about consistency and quality.
2ď¸âŁEducate
LinkedIn is a learning hub. People love content that solves their problems or helps them grow.
Instead of pushing a sale, share knowledge that makes their lives easier.
3ď¸âŁRelate to Their Needs
Everyone cares about their own story.
To sell on LinkedIn, you need to understand what your audience needs and speak their language. Empathy is key.
4ď¸âŁValue Relationships Over Transactions
Chasing a quick sale on LinkedIn rarely works.
Focus on building relationships firstâpeople want to know who theyâre trusting before they buy.
5ď¸âŁEngage with Authenticity
A robotic or overly formal tone can push people away on LinkedIn. Be yourselfânatural, approachable, and genuine.
đRemember: When you give value, you get value in return.đ
