My favorite is the direct statement that social selling is NOT marketing. Yet, so many marketing departments just want the sales team to share marketing posts. 🤦🏼♂️ Sales is always about conversations and relationships. Great article Timothy (Tim) Hughes 提姆·休斯

Timothy (Tim) Hughes 提姆·休斯 my favorite part is that of generating your own inbound and getting choices. This is something that is so often overlooked when evaluating whether or not to do strategic social. When the #salesperson is generating their own inbound they have the ability to focus on the best opportunities for a given time and match the buying process of their prospects.

🔥Timothy. Many think they know what it is. Others attach personality, strategy and revenue to the activity. 👍
