• Buyers are now getting smarter and more empowered
  than before. Today, buyers do not directly
  purchase something they like and need, they first
  spend some time researching and reading various
  helpful articles, reviews, and testimonials from
  different websites, and social media pages. If
  you have a large and relevant social media
  network, you have a bigger chance to be found by
  potential buyers.
• Sales marketing can be really tough. But meeting
  the high standards and expectations of customers
  is much more challenging. Keeping up with the
  expectations of your customers is one of the
  major challenges that your sales teams may face
  these days. With all the essential information
  and educational resources readily available all
  around the internet today, customers are now
  getting smarter, more empowered and well-informed
  than they were a few years back. Before they come
  up with a final decision about what and where to
  buy certain goods and services, they first seek
  help from Google, ask the opinion of others,
  visit the pages of trusted advisors, read reviews
  or testimonials, and do a little bit more
  research works.

Social selling defined
There are many ways to define social selling but
all these definitions boil down to only one
concept, that is Social selling is when sales
people and businesses use various social media
platforms like LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter,
Google, Instagram, and Pinterest to directly
connect and interact with potential clients and
customers.

So, how can social selling generate revenue for
your business?

• Gone were the days when businesses will just wait
  for customers to contact them and visit their
  store for a purchase. With the buyers getting
  smarter and the competition getting stiffer, you
  need to go out of your comfort zone, do something
  to reach your target market, and stay a few steps
  ahead of your competitors. Thanks to the Internet
  and to the continuous rise of social media,
  connecting with potential clients is now easier
  and quicker.

• Social media provides a new, direct, and amiable
  venue to connect with clients and prospect
  customers. Today, the purchasing process starts
  even before the buyers contact the seller. If you
  already have established a connection with a
  large pool of potential buyers, your chances of
  getting ahead of your competitors are greater
  that those who just sit quiet in the corner. In
  addition, having a large social network does not
  only help you connect with your clients, it also
  helps you establish a good relationship with
  them, build your reputation, improve your online
  presence, and eventually drive passive income to
  your business.
