1. A Non-Spammy Approach to Generating Leads with LinkedIn’s Sponsored InMail 

With more than 347 million users — a population that’s growing “at a rate of more than two new members per second” — LinkedIn is easily recognized as the web’s largest professional network. However, what many marketers fail to see is its advertising potential.

LinkedIn’s paid advertising platform offers plenty of different options for reaching prospects, but one that more marketers should be paying attention to is Sponsored InMail. Sponsored InMail lets you use LinkedIn InMail to deliver highly relevant messages to targeted audience segments. Here’s how to use it effectively without coming across like a spammy advertiser.

5. The Social Potential Failure Threatening Companies Everywhere

The social economy is estimated at $1.3 trillion according to a widely circulated report by McKinsey & Company. Yet, astoundingly, only a small fraction of organizations have discovered how to effectively harness its power — especially, when it comes to generating revenue.

In fact, there’s a gap quickly widening between organizations who have developed a sophisticated understanding and approach to social media and those who are stuck lagging dangerously behind. Many organizations are simply checking social media off the list, doing the bare minimum, while social savvy organizations are making huge strides, creating massive impact and disrupting entire markets seemingly overnight.
