Using the LinkedIn Relationship Feature

October 31, 20130 Comments

Hello, I’m Jim Glover, That Branding Guy for Once a Day Marketing™. Today is Digital Friday and we are looking at the “relationship” feature in the LinkedIn profile.

As part of our 7Cs of Successful Inbound Marketing© we address the need to Capture and Cultivate your social media contacts and leads. With this relationship feature, LinkedIn has made it extremely easy for you to track and engage potential prospects.

For each connection you make with LinkedIn you can enter how you met and who introduced you; make notes about conversations and action items; include tags to help you sort through your database; and add automatic reminders to approach the individual again.

This LinkedIn relationship feature is a very powerful tool to help you manage your inbound marketing efforts. Although not as powerful as a dedicated lead tracking tool like SalesForce.com, it still provides the bells and whistles you need to build your online relationships and close deals. Our recommendation: start using the LinkedIn relationship feature today.

Once a Day Marketing™ positions brands to become #1 in the minds of target customers. Visit our website at www.onceadaymarketing.com.
