  • What if AI could enable ALL sellers to perform like top performers? 📈 We’ve all heard that AI is transforming B2B sales, but it’s only as powerful as the data and context that fuel it. To succeed, sellers need AI that connects them to the right people, at the right time, with the right message – enabling them to have more high-quality conversations. That’s why we’re reimagining Sales Navigator by combining the power of LinkedIn’s unparalleled network of over 1 billion members with Microsoft’s cutting-edge AI. In the coming weeks and months, we’ll be introducing several new AI-powered features, including … 🔎 Lead Finder – automates the manual steps of prospecting, empowering sellers to prospect less and sell more 🗣️ Message Assist – drafts contextually-relevant and hyper-personalized outreach messages that reflect both the seller and their offerings 🖱️ Account IQ – while already an existing feature, we’re enhancing the experience to not only provide account summaries in a single click, but also allow sellers to personalize insights even further with solution mapping 📄 Lead IQ – uncovers what resonates with a buyer by aggregating and summarizing key information about potential leads The impact? Enabling sellers everywhere to drive smarter, more meaningful sales engagement at scale. Get to know the new Sales Navigator and learn more about how – and when – we’re turning this vision into reality to support our larger AI vision here: https://lnkd.in/SalesNavigatorReimagined #SalesNavigator #FutureReadySales #B2BSales

    Helping sales leaders create more meaningful conversations with people that matter.

    Sales Navigator Top Tip: Go through your latest alerts every morning As a salesperson, we want to stay on top of what's happening with our most important accounts & stakeholders. I LOVE using sales navigator to stay on top of all key alerts and engaging as key events happens in my clients life in real time. Examples of alerts you can find -> Leads mentioned in the news -> Companies with new C-level execs joining -> Company have received a round of funding -> Lead posts shares ->Career Changes ->Company risk lerts ->Company growth alerts all of this helps me to stay on top of what's happening in real time and helps me support my clients where they are at right now 🙏 What'd your favourite alert? #salesnavigator #deepsales

  • The best teams don’t just learn, they teach. 📚 At last month’s World Economic Forum, Cloudflare’s Michelle Zatlyn shared a powerful insight: Embracing AI (or any tech shift) isn’t just about individual adoption. The real impact comes when change agents take the time to teach their colleagues. For sales teams, this couldn’t be more relevant. Success isn’t just about using new tools — it’s about sharing strategies, insights, and best practices to upskill the whole team. How are you fostering curiosity and a teaching culture in your org?  #WEF25 #Davos25 #B2BSales #FutureReadySales

  • “I don’t see cold calling being a viable way of growing business any longer.” 📞    Hear us out, because Managing Director at Merrill Lynch, Michael Lestina’s rationale makes sense ...    Why cold call when you can use Sales Navigator to find the right people, get to know them better, and understand their needs — all before reaching out?    Find out how else the Merrill team is upping their sales game: https://lnkd.in/dmQ-kRuy   #B2BSales #FutureReadySales #SalesNavigator

  • Great reminder from David J.P. Fisher on why thoughtful engagement matters. Building meaningful connections with buyers in large B2B sales is about persistence and strategy. With up to 20 stakeholders and countless touchpoints, staying visible is essential. That’s where Sales Navigator’s Lead Lists come in, helping sales pros cut through the noise and engage at the right time 🚀 #SalesNavigator #SalesTips

    Showing Sales Professionals and Leaders How to Leverage Digital Influence to Create More and Better Opportunities - Sales Hall of Fame Inductee, Speaker, & Author

    How many times do you need to “touch” a potential buyer before they become an actual buyer in a large B2B sales? …. Whatever your first guess…it’s probably more. Here’s a few variables to keep in mind: ↘️ Number of people with a say in the buying decision: probably 10-20. Most of the reports I’ve read put the number in the high teens, but even if that's high, it’s pretty easy to get to ten. Your main points of contact, a few power users, their boss and their boss’s boss…add in the financial, legal, and IT contacts and the number grows fast. ↘️ Number of times you need to grab their attention over the course of the buying journey: let’s say 20-40. That might seem like a lot, but think of every email, phone call, meeting, social post, etc. You wouldn’t message someone once and think your job is done. ↘️ Number of times your competitors are reaching out and muddying the waters: a lot. The marketplace is noisy with competitor’s messages and other industry noise. And there is always the siren song of “status quo” that your buyer could listen to. No matter what number you come up with for your buyers, my guess is that you need to find more ways to engage with your prospects and customers in a meaningful way. That’s why I’ve been such a big fan of the Lead list filters in Sales Navigator since they first came out. The ability to find conversations that your Leads are engaged in with almost no effort…(chef’s kiss). Because then you get to add to the conversations in a simple but meaningful way. And with just a few seconds you’ve created one more opportunity for the prospect to see you as a partner. So if you have Sales Navigator and haven't set up your Lead lists for an expansive approach to your accounts, go do it. And then schedule at least 15 minutes into your day to review all of their activity and engage. #socialselling #salesnavigator #linkedIntips Becky S.

    How I'd book a meeting with Marvel in 24 hours. (A real framework I use for landing dream accounts) Here's my exact process: 1. Identify your Persona Triangle This will make or break your outreach. I always suggest targeting three main personas. Here are mine: ↳ CRO ↳ CMO ↳ Head of Enablement These are the personas that drive adoption and success. Before we start reaching out we need to know who we are talking to. Now let's get tactical with Sales Nav: 2. Use Relationship Explorer     This is where you find hidden allies. Real example: Batman (my CRO) is connected to Iron Man (target CRO). Here's the play: ↳ Ask Batman for an intro ↳ Give him ready-to-send messaging ↳ Let him schedule the meeting Here's the exact messaging: "Batman, saw you're connected to Iron Man. We worked with the Guardians of the Galaxy to increase pipeline by 30% last quarter. Mind making an intro?" But wait, there's more... 3. Check Your CRM     This is where you find gold. Example: Wolverine was a past customer who moved to Marvel. That's a perfect relationship to leverage. The play here: ↳ Send a connection request ↳ Make a relevant video for him ↳ Reference past relationship context Send this connection request: "Wolverine great working together at Sony. Quick question about your new role at Marvel..." The steps are simple, but powerful. The secret? Stop trying to do it alone. Start building internal alliances. One strong intro beats 100 random cold emails. P.S. Will you start implementing this process today? P.S.S. ♻️ Repost this so others can find value as well
