#48. Phil Gerbyshak – How To Make Connections And Sales on LinkedIn

Tune in to learn how to sell your services using social media in a way that feels authentic and not at all icky! In this episode, I interview my National Speakers Association colleague, Phil Gerbyshak. Phil is a digital selling strategist who specializes in helping Superstars like us prospect and sell more effectively. He’s a tech junkie who’s been actively blogging, podcasting and using social media before we even called it social media. We talk about strategies for increasing your sales with social media, specifically using LinkedIn. It’s an awesome crash course in generating more leads through LinkedIn as well as how you can tweak your profile to attract more business online. In fact, it was so awesome that after the interview, Phil and I stayed on the line another 45 minutes, during which I hired his company to refresh my LinkedIn profile and build a stronger presence on the site. I think you're going to enjoy this episode!
