LinkedIn provides a phenomenal opportunity for switched on businesses to attract new work and proactively gain new customers, the question is, are you using it to your best advantage?

Do you have a sales or marketing team that are looking for new opportunities? If so, then LinkedIn should be in that mix.

Even if you don't have a sales team, LinkedIn allows you to cultivate business relationships like no other social media platform out there.

Alastair Banks, from Optix Solutions, and Julian Summerhayes (See full bios below)  have teamed up to provide detailed LinkedIn training which will focus on getting new business and growing existing relationships.

The cost of the course reflects the level of training we are providing – this is not for people who just want an overview of the tool, this is for forward thinking businesses who want to learn from real experts, how they gain extra business.

You’ll learn ‘on the tools’ techniques which you can implement in your business immediately. We will also provide a FREE follow up visit to your place of work after the training to see how you’re getting on.

The course will cover:

• The Fundamentals of Inbound Marketing
• LinkedIn Overview
  
• LinkedIn - A Powerful Relationship Builder
• LinkedIn - A Sales Tool
• LinkedIn - A Positioning Tool

Who is this course for?

This course is suitable for anyone who wants to know how to use LinkedIn effectively within their business.

We're looking forward to seeing you there & please pass this link on to any businesses you feel could benefit from this opportunity.
