LinkedIn In House Training Workshops

Kintish have developed a new workshop on how to get to grips with the online networking world, particularly the LinkedIn online global community. When it is used in combination with face-to face networking it can really help gain new business and build your own and your businesses profile. After all, with the growth of the internet, we are now in a global marketplace meaning that anyone in the world can buy your products and services.

LinkedIn is for you and your business if you want:

  • to act and not react in this new business climate.
  • to approach warm leads and avoid cold-calling.
  • more business opportunities at virtually no cost.
  • relevant colleagues become comfortable pro-active business developers.
  • satisfied clients to introduce you to their contacts in an organised and carefully targeted manner.
  • colleagues to create more cross-selling opportunities.
  • to be involved in modern up-to-date business development techniques.

LinkedIn Training Seminars

We can also compliment your in-house networking skills workshop with an element of online networking skills. Our LinkedIn training seminars aim to provide you with all the tips to make the best out of your online network, including -

  • Sell yourself – make impact with a powerful profile
  • Market your business – using LinkedIn to promote your services
  • Make it credible – your guide to online referrals and recommendations
  • Grow your network – introduction and invitation etiquette
  • Join the online global community – joining groups and discussions relevant to you

Whilst face-to-face effective networking is the main message that Kintish delivers, we have seen real results in using LinkedIn alongside day-to-day networking. It is an effective tool which helps you reconnect with old contacts and develop your relationship with new contacts.
