Lean Out Your Business Podcast


Nov 29, 2022

Today’s episode is super special! This is our 100th episode and it feels like I've been doing this podcast for years at this point. So, thank you all for being with me for these 100 episodes.

 

What better way to celebrate our 100th episode than bring back on the show the absolutely brilliant Annie P. Ruggles who was the very first podcast guest back on episode seven? Annie P. Ruggles is the Founder of The Non-Sleazy Sales Academy, she's guided hundreds of people toward making deeper connections, lasting impressions, and friendlier, more lucrative transactions and conversations. Her pride and joy is her podcast, Too Legitimate to Quit: Instantly Actionable Small Business Strategies with a Pop Culture Spin.

 

In this episode of the Lean Out Your Business Podcast, we are going to talk about sales, marketing, and messaging on LinkedIn. LinkedIn is a curated content engine plus social networking site, where you can highlight your background by optimizing your profile, grow and leverage your network by connecting to people, and engage with the gifts of content that you're being offered. It enables you to network with people and professional organizations in your industry which is a great way to stay up to date with the latest developments and to share information and ideas with others in your field. We have to take into account, that the larger our network is, the more business opportunities will come our way, meaning the more potential leads and sales.

 

If you are using LinkedIn and you want to leverage this platform, tap into this episode!
