How I Booked Eight Appointment From LinkedIn In One Week! | Donald Kelly - 1864

Is it possible to get multiple appointments on LinkedIn in just one week? Guys, I'm telling you that it is, and in this episode, I'm going to show you how I got eight appointments in five days. I promise it's no influencer trick and has everything to do with prospecting.

Take a look at your LinkedIn Connections

Go through your LinkedIn connection list and group them into potential customers, past customers, and people you know but don't know what you do.
For the ones grouped in "people you know," try booking a 5-7 minute meeting by doing the most simple thing: ask permission to ask a question.

Appointment Influencers

Past coworkers could be your connection to getting appointments for a specific organization.
You may have to set up an appointment with them, but at least they can probably influence a deal for you.

Look for Partners

Sometimes you have to provide opportunities to others to help you set appointments. I share how I did this with a recruiting firm and some of my sales reps. If you give to others, they will be more willing to give to you.

Post LinkedIn Polls

Creating LinkedIn polls on an industry issue and responding to those who engaged with it is a great way to find prospective clients. They're telling you what their problem is, and you can use this to your advantage.
Shoot them a question to start a conversation and see if you're able to set an appointment.

"You guys get to hear from me all the time, but I never get to hear from you. I want to hear from you! Connect with me on LinkedIn, and I'll be happy to answer questions or even help you out with these tips." - Donald Kelly.
