We often hear people talk about social selling as sending spam over social when it isn't

That's spamming people on social 

Our definition of social selling is 

Using your presence and behavior on social media to build influence, 
make connections, grow relationships and trust, which leads to 
conversation and commercial interaction.

As we talk to people we always see an aha moment 

Which is when people realise why they need to have a “shop window” on social

Why they need to connect in a non spammy way to drive conversations not pitches

How by commenting on people's posts brings people towards you and builds trust

Sharing insight not corporate propaganda demonstrates you are the expert you are 

As this all comes together, sales starts to accelerate
