Here are the highlights of this episode:
1:48 John’s ideal Client: It's definitely business coaches, consultants, solopreneurs, small business owners and anyone who is in-charge of their own business, company or their own brand.
2:06Problem John helps solve: Lead generation. Getting people quality leads without spending a ton of money on advertising or playing professional footsie at network events, and all those other things we hate to do. Definitely the problem I solve is getting quality leads quickly with minimal expense.
2:46Typical symptoms that clients do before reaching out to John: I think people come to me feeling frustrated, feeling like they've been pass-by. I used to do cold calls, I used to do ads, I used to do networking events and it's not working. I've been living of referrals and those went away, I'm obsolete, how do I get in the game here. And also, those inquisitive and curious wondering there's something going on with LinkedIn, I'm not quite sure how to capitalize on this. But I feel like there's an opportunity here, you seem someone who can help me. That's definitely the state people come to me in.
3:45What are some of the common mistakes that folks make before finding John and his solution: The biggest mistake that people make in approaching LinkedIn is treating it like it's still their resume, and not making a profile in what I called "client face-in", and not being about the problems that you solve or the audience that you serve. That's the number one mistake that people make. The other big mistake that people make on LinkedIn is to try to marry everyone in the first day; they immediately connect and try to sell you something. And you need to practice a little professional courtship and build some rapport. You wouldn't do that in real life, you wouldn't sit down across from me face-to-face meeting for the first time in a coffee shop and ask for a discovery session. You wouldn't do that. Those are the two big mistakes; profile set up wrong and trying to sell.
4:59John’s Valuable Free Action (VFA): With you LinkedIn profile, the most important thing is your headline, right under your name and your photo. Change your headline from CEO (company name), your title, but, no one cares about themselves. Change it to the audience you serve and the service you provide. (example) It will be Business coaching for (blank) audience or SCO for (blank) audience, or lead generation for (blank) audience. Service + audience, that's one quick win you can write.
5:45John’s Valuable Free Resource (VFR): I'm going to giveaway copy of my entire book "LinkedIn Riches." The audio book, the E-book, the PDF, the kindle, whatever version you want.
