Today’s guest loves to help people who are not comfortable with technology to embrace its power. She is a social sales, social media, and LinkedIn trainer, consultant, and speaker. She works with organizations, and individuals who know they should be using LinkedIn to: extend their networking, fill their sales pipeline, build their professional brand, advance in their career, and create advocates within their organizations. She knows people are often afraid, even if they don’t admit it, of clicking in the wrong place or saying the wrong thing. She helps to remove fear and accelerate the LinkedIn, social sales, and networking learning curve.

Her clients call her part friend, part consultant, part confidante, a sales enabler, and LinkedIn whisperer. Please join me in welcoming Beth Granger.

In this episode we discuss:

• her thoughts on leadership: “Leadership is undefinable. You know it when you see it. Leaders do things to make you trust them and ask them for advice.”
• how being an artist opened up new opportunities to be a leader.
• her early career using her art degree at the forefront.
• how her colleagues encouraged her to start her own business.
• how being fluid with her idea of what her business would be led to more success than if she had been locked to a specific idea.
• how she organizes herself to identify the tasks she should be doing vs. what she could outsource.
• how she nurtures and sustains her network.
• some tips on how to share content on social media.
