Strategic social selling on LinkedIn

Social selling turns LinkedIn into an active part of your sales strategy. By combining relevant content, network building, and targeted dialogue, you can build relationships with decision-makers long before they actively start looking for a supplier.

At VAEKST, we take a structured approach to social selling through content, outreach, and personal positioning on LinkedIn. Our approach turns connections into conversations, and conversations into customers not just organically but through LinkedIn Ads as well.

Social selling

Social selling as part of your go-to-market strategy

For many B2B companies, LinkedIn quickly becomes a channel for sporadic posts without a clear strategy. We change that with Social Selling by turning LinkedIn into a structured part of your sales process.

When your employees share relevant content, engage in dialogue, and build relationships with decision-makers, LinkedIn becomes a place where new opportunities emerge naturally. Instead of starting sales conversations cold, relationships often begin long before the first interaction.

Social selling therefore works especially well alongside other growth activities. When combined with disciplines such as outbound sales, appointment setting, or targeted LinkedIn Ads, your audience encounters your brand at multiple points in their decision-making process.

The result is stronger brand awareness, more relevant conversations, and a pipeline built on relationships rather than random leads.

Social selling in Practice

Social Selling works best when it is not just marketing or a single profile that is active on LinkedIn. The companies that succeed are those that systematically activate employees’ personal profiles as part of their sales strategy.

When experts, consultants, and salespeople share insights from their work, it creates a more credible dialogue with the market. Content from individuals often generates significantly higher engagement than content from company pages.

This also means that social selling is not just about visibility, but about activating the people within your organization who already have relationships with the market.

That is why many companies use social selling as a supplement to activities such as B2B marketing, outbound sales, or appointment setting, where LinkedIn becomes a place where relationships develop over time.

Social selling activities on LinkedIn

Social Selling on LinkedIn typically consists of a set of activities that together create visibility, relationships, and dialogue with decision-makers.

The most effective Social Selling strategies combine:
- Optimized personal LinkedIn profiles
- Consistent publishing of relevant content
- Active engagement in comments and messages
- Strategic network expansion
- Targeted outreach to decision-makers

When these activities work together, LinkedIn becomes more than just a branding channel. It becomes a place where new relationships and business opportunities are created. Benefiting both your company, your personal brand, and your bottom line.

What is social selling?

Social selling is a sales strategy where companies use social media, typically LinkedIn, to build relationships with potential customers.

Instead of starting with a direct sales message, social selling is about sharing relevant content, engaging in conversations, and building trust over time. Once the relationship is established, it becomes much easier to initiate an outreach strategy.

Who should work with Social Selling?

Social selling is particularly effective for companies with complex B2B solutions, where relationships and trust play a key role in the buying process.

This includes companies in consulting, technology, and professional services, where decision-makers often get to know suppliers through dialogue and industry-related content on LinkedIn.

When do you see results from social selling?

Social Selling is a long-term strategy that requires ongoing commitment. Initial results can often be seen after a few months, but the impact grows stronger over time. As your network expands and your content starts generating engagement, ongoing conversations and new opportunities begin to emerge in your pipeline.

How fast could I get started?

We usually start new collaborations in the beginning of each month.

What is the difference between social selling and LinkedIn marketing?

Social selling is primarily about building relationships through personal LinkedIn profiles. This is done through content, dialogue, and network building with relevant decision-makers.

LinkedIn marketing typically refers to paid campaigns and advertising on the platform. It uses targeting and ad formats such as sponsored content or thought leader ads to reach a broader audience.

The two disciplines work best together. Social selling builds relationships and credibility, while LinkedIn marketing scales visibility and reaches more relevant decision-makers through precise targeting.
