Why Leverage Competitors and Advocates?
Your competitors have likely built relationships with the exact type of clients you want to reach, while advocates—supporters of your business who aren’t direct competitors—may also have connections to your target audience. Using their LinkedIn networks, you can reach high-quality prospects already familiar with your industry.
Key Takeaways:
1.Identify Competitors and Advocates:
•Start by making a list of competitors who offer similar services and advocates who have referred you business in the past.
•These individuals already have access to the clients you’d like to connect with, giving you a head start.
2.Use LinkedIn’s ‘Connections of’ Feature:
•LinkedIn Sales Navigator allows you to view connections of a specific person. Simply enter the name of a competitor or advocate, and Sales Navigator will show you their connections.
3.Refine Your Audience:
•Use filters like job title, location, or industry to narrow your search. This helps you focus on the most relevant prospects for your business, such as marketing directors in the creative sector.
4.Create Custom Lists:
•Organise these prospects into a list and personalise your outreach. Mention the mutual connection in your message to make the approach feel warm and natural.
Why This Strategy Works:
By leveraging existing connections, you can bypass cold outreach and connect with people who are already aware of your industry. This saves time and increases your chances of building relationships with prospects who are genuinely interested in your offer.
