What is LinkedIn?

It's the global business card holder for professionals. It's the only platform that allows you to send direct messages to overseas buyer representatives.

Over 1 billion people worldwide use it, and 80% of B2B leads come from LinkedIn. You can verify the buyer representative's title, company, and experience, ensuring precise targeting.

Account Types and Costs

LinkedIn offers both free and paid accounts. If you're looking to engage in serious sales, we recommend Sales Navigator.

Profile Optimization

You need to create a profile that buyers can trust. Profile photo, background image, headline, and About section are all important.

Buyer Search Methods

Finding the right search strategy to identify target buyers is crucial. Basic search is available even with a free account.

To increase your connection acceptance rate, personalized messages are essential. There is a 300-character limit.

Message Sales Strategy

The message sequence after the connection is crucial. Send up to the third message only, and maintain a minimum interval of 5 days between each message.

Content Marketing

Consistently posting content generates inbound leads, where buyers reach out to you first.

To achieve results in practice, it's important to stick to daily/weekly routines.
