Social media continues to be a proven way to generate more high-quality leads and create a steady stream of prospects clicking through to your website. So, how can you take advantage of this?

Nail the Basics
You wonÕt be able to tap into LinkedInÕs robust platform capabilities if you donÕt have the fundamentals in place. Make sure that your profile is optimized with keywords and terms that your customers would use to describe you. It is also important to remember that the key to a successful LinkedIn profile is making sure there is plenty of ÒWhatÕs In It for Me?Ó built into your profile. 

Hyper-Target Your Content
Creating or sharing hyper-targeted content can help you reach specific niche audiences on LinkedIn. These are the kinds of individuals that would otherwise be hard or impossible to reach. To generate tangible results fast on LinkedIn, be sure to publish updates about your company daily, create weekly posts, and repost your content to LinkedIn groups. 

Publish Long-Form Content on Pulse
The Pulse publishing platform on LinkedIn offers businesses a valuable way to share your thoughts with other members while garnering greater exposure for your profile and company website. When you publish on Pulse, it ties directly to your profile. Having insights about your industry at the top of your profile can benefit you by expanding the conversation while also demonstrating to prospects that you are a credible authority in your niche.

Mine Company Pages
One of the best ways to begin generating leads on LinkedIn is to collect company names, headquarter locations, website addresses, company size, and more. Gathering these elements can help you to understand better the organizations that you are trying to target and can help you to better tailor your connections with them. 

Incorporating these four strategies into your overall LinkedIn marketing efforts can help you gain the highly qualified leads that your business needs to grow and increase sales.
