Online Business Development and

Client Engagement via LinkedIn

“LinkedIn members are nearly 50% more likely to purchase from a company they engage with on LinkedIn” Hubspot

LinkedIn is a powerful business development tool when used in a professional manner. If your sector is very competitive, your LinkedIn activity can help you stand out from the crowd.

Clients expect professionals to:

  • Listen and respond to their needs and goals
  • Provide a consistent, client experience across all touchpoints
  • Demonstrate knowledge of their client’s industry and the challenges they face

These skills are not usually taught until several years post-qualification, creating a major hurdle in career and client relationship development.

This workshop is interactive so no time is wasted, with participants able to work on LinkedIn ‘live’ during the session.
