LinkedIn Leads in 10 minutes per day

Imagine that you would know every time someone is asking for a referral for your service.  Imagine that you could check out the person that is asking for the referral to see if that's a good fit for your business. And then imagine that you could message them right away and start a conversation.  All of that is possible within LinkedIn quickly and easily.

This quick article show how you can create a "LinkedIn Listening Station" on your free LinkedIn account, without Sales Navigator. It allows you to reach out to people who are ready to buy your product or service directly, simply by listening when they're asking for help.

Step 1: create a relevant search

Here is the formula for the search: 
(looking for) AND (recommendations OR professionals) AND (your service 1 OR your service 2 OR your service 3)

For example, if you provide online strategy and digital marketing services then your formula might look like this:

(looking for) AND (recommendations OR professionals) AND (marketing strategy OR digital marketing)

(Note that on a free LinkedIn account you can use a maximum of 5 Boolean operators, so a total of 5 "AND" and "OR")

Step 2: Implement the search on LinkedIn and optimize

Now it's time to set up the Listening Station:

• Open your LinkedIn account
• Copy the search from step 1, paste it into the "Search" field and press Enter
• Click "People" under the LinkedIn logo, and then select "Content"
• Click on "Date Posted" and select "Past 24 hours"
• Bookmark the search. In Chrome: press ctrl-D and give it a name like "LinkedIn Listening Station"

Here is a quick video illustrating the steps:

That's it, you're all set!

Step 3: Listen every morning

Every day just click on the bookmark and LinkedIn will execute the search. You can then reach out to the people who are ready to buy your product or service!

If you really want to step it up a notch then you can get Sales Navigator which allows you to fine-tune your search.
