LinkedIn responses outperformed e-mail by 558%
LinkedIn responses outperformed phone by 209%Drop-out rates for the event on the day were similar across channels. The most successful channel was LinkedIn and the lowest cost per registration was also LinkedIn. The phone remains an essential and powerful tool in anyone’s social selling arsenal.The lowest cost per registration was also LinkedIn.We’re now living in the golden age of messaging where platforms such as WeChat allow you to hail cabs and book movie tickets through the app. This golden age extends to business communication, with more and more companies choosing to use messages instead of email as part of their social selling strategies.This is because LinkedIn messages trigger higher response rates than cold emails. Here’s the reason why:
Provides more context on the sender (They know about you)
If you receive a cold email or phone call from someone you don’t know, it takes time and effort to check who the person is and whether they are of interest, can you trust them, what is their background and reputable.When you receive a LinkedIn message, you are curious and you can click on the sender’s profile and easily find out more information about them….infact alot of information about them. You can see information such as their latest updates, interactions, connections and groups in common, common connections which helps the recipient build up a better picture of the sender, as well as any previous interactions you’ve had.Our addictions to notifications
In fact, you can get two notifications for LinkedIn messages –– one through the app and one via email –– making it more likely you’ll check and read the message.It’s still also easier to use the LinkedIn app to reply to messages than it is to use a (sometimes clunky) email app.2 Way Real Time Messenger Rather Then a Cold Call or Email
On LinkedIn you can easily switch between conversations with just one tap, and it doesn’t feel like that much effort to talk to multiple people at one time. This is very different from cold call or an email.People view messages in a different way from an email: we normally keep our messages to look back on later, while we are all trying to delete as many emails as possible as quickly as we can to reach the holy grail of inbox zero.
