Channel: Media Maven

[0]
In this video, I'm going to show you a tool on LinkedIn that is actually judging you and
[5]
scoring you on your performance.
[7]
It's something that you probably did not know existed, but I'm going to show you how you
[11]
can find it and how you can figure out how they're scoring you… and let me tell you
[16]
the average score is going to shock you.
[20]
If you want to get more media exposure with spending money on ads and make sure you subscribe
[25]
to this channel where I post videos every single Thursday.
[31]
Okay, now let's get back to LinkedIn, and you're going to want to stay until the end
[37]
of this video because I am sharing a brand new LinkedIn visibility cheat sheet.
[42]
You can get it at LinkedInVisibility.com I'm going to tell you a little bit more about
[46]
it after I tell you about this secret tool that you probably did not even know existed
[51]
on LinkedIn.
[52]
It is called the LinkedIn Social Selling Index or LinkedIn SSI and it is actually judging
[61]
you and keeping score on how good of a job you're doing on LinkedIn to sell yourself
[67]
socially and LinkedIn is measuring you on four different things.
[72]
One, your professional brand.
[75]
Two, finding the right people.
[78]
Three, engaging with insights.
[81]
Four, building relationships.
[84]
Please let me know in the comments if this is the first time you're hearing about LinkedIn
[88]
SSI.
[90]
Just say yes or no.
[93]
Is this the first time you're hearing about the LinkedIn Social Selling Index Yes or no?
[97]
Let me know in the comments.
[99]
So to break down what this means, I'm actually going to go into my LinkedIn and I'm going
[103]
to show you my SSI score and break down what it means for me and what I'm going to do based
[110]
on this score.
[112]
So the first thing I'm going to do is I'm going to start on my profile and then I'm
[115]
going to go up here and I'm going to backtrack a little bit in the URL.
[120]
I'm going to go all the way back to just LinkedIn.com/and then I'm going to type in “sales/SSI”
[127]
for Social Selling Index and hit enter and this is going to bring up my social selling
[131]
dashboard.
[132]
So I can see here I ranked in the top 1% of my industry and I'm also ranking in the top
[137]
1% of my network.
[138]
So that's great, but there's still room for improvement because when I look down here,
[143]
I only score 79 out of 100, so I know there's room for improvement and those four points
[149]
are here: Establishing your professional brand, finding the right people, engaging with insights,
[154]
and building relationships.
[156]
I'm pretty good at building relationships.
[158]
I have a 25 out of 25.
[160]
There’s little room for improvement with engaging with my insights and establishing
[163]
my professional brand.
[165]
But where I need the most help is finding the right people.
[168]
Because here you can see I only have 13, so if I click on “finding the right people”,
[174]
LinkedIn is actually going to tell me step by step what I can do to increase my chances
[180]
of finding the right people so I can bring the score up.
[183]
And of course as you bring the score up and you're going to have more right people following
[188]
you and then your business is going to grow.
[190]
So I want to make sure that I'm following LinkedIn's recommendations on how I can find
[193]
the right people.
[195]
And then, you can even scroll down and find more information.
[198]
So I can see my weekly social selling index and they can see how the numbers are slowly
[202]
increasing and getting better.
[204]
So that's good.
[205]
And then I can look at people in my industry.
[207]
So I ranked in the top 1% of people in my industry.
[209]
Most people in my industry scored 29 out of 100.
[214]
People in my network, 48 out of 100 and I'm up 1% since the last week.
[219]
So actually last week, I was 2% and now I'm at 1% because I've been keeping an eye on
[225]
my LinkedIn Social Selling Index and I know I need to better some things to increase my
[232]
social selling on the platform.
[234]
So this is how you can find out what your LinkedIn SSI score is and how you can make
[239]
it better.
[240]

[255]
And it tells you everything that I did to get in the top 1% of my industry and the top
[260]
1% of my network according to the LinkedIn SSI.
[265]
