Social Selling

Social selling means using social networks to build relationships that lead to sales. It is not cold pitching through messages. It is being visible, helpful and credible to the people you want to work with.

Social Selling

Social selling means using social networks to build relationships that lead to sales. It is not cold pitching through messages. It is being visible, helpful and credible to the people you want to work with.

Principles

  • Help first: share useful insight before you ask for anything.
  • Be consistent: show up regularly rather than in bursts.
  • Be personal: people connect with people, not logos.
  • Be patient: trust builds over weeks and months.

Practical steps

  1. Optimise profiles. Make it clear who you help and how.
  2. Share expertise. Post lessons, opinions and examples from your work.
  3. Engage with prospects' content thoughtfully, not with one-word comments.
  4. Connect with context. Mention why you want to connect.
  5. Move to conversations when there is genuine interest.

Avoid

Automated connection requests followed by an immediate pitch, generic templates and posting only about yourself.

Measure

Track profile views, connection acceptance rate, conversations started and opportunities created.
