Social Selling: Boost your Business Opportunities and Sales Funnel

Social Selling

Def:

In a B2B context, social selling refers to the set of practices that use professional social networks for sales development.

Why is social selling essential?

Because 91% of executives consider LinkedIn their first choice for professionally relevant content and 85% of millennials use social media to search for products and services for their companies.

Today, 73% of B2B buyers are millenials. Thus, their influence on B2B purchasing decisions will only increase as they undertake more important roles and leadership positions along their career path.

When looking for B2B products or services for purchase, the majority of millennials (56%) indicate that digital channels such as search engines, supplier websites and social media are the most important channels to search for new products and services.
