This book guides you on how to use LinkedIn B2B marketing to generate qualified prospects and obtain clients. To appreciate what awaits you should you take up LinkedIn advertising, this guide begins by providing you with proven benefits of LinkedIn advertising so that you may know your gains well in advance. While LinkedIn has been used successfully by many companies to market their businesses, it is not a one-platform-fits-all kind of basket.

This simply means that LinkedIn must be evaluated on a case-to-case basis. In this guide, you will find valuable criteria that will enable you to determine whether LinkedIn suits your marketing needs or not so that you do not risk your resources against potentially low ROI (return on investment).

We provide you with practical approaches to grow and monetize your LinkedIn following so that you can increase your income. Finally, there is a limit to how much you can do as an individual. Even if you employ a dozen more people to work specifically on your LinkedIn account, you cannot completely tap into the huge potential base of over 500 million people.

This guide provides you with information on how you can automate your LinkedIn income and the specific tools you require in order to harness great success.
