Quotes from the Episode:
“LinkedIn is an especially good source for discovering leads. Hubspot found that
LinkedIn is 277% more effective at generating leads than Facebook and Twitter. Given
this, it’s no surprise that 79% of marketers see LinkedIn as a very good source of
leads, with 43% of marketers saying they have sourced at least one customer from
LinkedIn. That number increases for B2B marketers, who report that 80% of their
social media leads come from LinkedIn.” [00:07:58]
“The reason why LinkedIn is so easy to go viral on right now is because only 4% of
people out there will post on LinkedIn but 100% of people need people need content in
their news feed.” [00:11:30]
“If you have a company page and personal profile that have the same number of
followers. If you post something, the same thing on both, you’ll usually get 10 times the
engagement, 10 times the views on your personal post rather than the
company’s.” [00:17:25]
“Always provide value first but make sure that it’s gated, you’re going to get first name,
last name, email address…” [00:36:25]
