Some quick tips for SaaS companies to market on LinkedIn
1. Identify and connect with potential referral sources. Those within your niche can be a great resource to find new business. For example, if you sell a real estate software connect with realtors who could potentially refer you new business.
2. Build relationships with your potential clients. Become a resource for your network by commenting and responding to posts. Educate your network so they will want to come to you with their problems.
3. Create a community of like-minded professionals. LinkedIn groups can be a part of the lead generation funnel. A airline SaaS can share information with a group of airport operations people who may refer business when their clients need advice. Within this group, you can start conversations and link potential clients, referral sources and other media back to your website where they can get even more information.
4. Spread your content and prove you're a thought leader. Placing your content and expertise in front of the right people you could potentially work with can be the best way to attract new clients and referral sources. That's why you need to join the groups your prospects are going to for information. Those are the places you can provide information and engage in conversations.
5. Build on existing client relationships. You may want to consider creating a LinkedIn group specifically to provide exclusive content and information just for clients. Your marketing efforts should not stop once someone becomes a client. Make sure you're building on those relationships to better your chances of client retention.
6. Stay in touch with what's happening in your specialty. Joining groups that your peers, colleagues, and competitors belong to can help you stay current with trends in your target industries. You will be able to see what others are talking about and what they have to share.
7. Showcase your SaaS team. Bring your team to the front of your marketing on LinkedIn to make it as much about the people as the product. Additionally you get to leverage all of your employees networks for exposure.
