re: Outbound Prospecting [part 16] / Power of Patience on LinkedIn

I bring to you yet another tale from the world of LinkedIn outbound engagement.


It might not seem extraordinary at first glance, but its core lesson holds immense value: Embrace the Power of Patience on LinkedIn.



Deliver your message thoughtfully, with precision and poise. Then, let silence do its magic. Allow your connections the space and time to absorb your message, reflect on it, and return when they're ready.


On LinkedIn, success is not about speed. It's about endurance and consistency.

Not LinkedIn related, but patience/persistence related.

There's a prospect I've been targeting for the better part of a year, who I've spoken to a few times now in person.

Each time we met, I was met with the same "Potentially interested, just not right now" "Timing is bad" "yada yada"

Didn't get discouraged and still paid her some friendly visits every couple of months (office is close to my base of operations)

Well, today, she reached out to ME looking to get a demo scheduled!

Keep nurturing those leads, everyone.
