78% of salespeople using social media outsell their peers. (LinkedIn – Social Selling Index)
75% of B2B buyers and 84% of C-level or vice-president level executives use social media to make purchasing decisions.
70% of #sales reps prefer to use LinkedIn to prospect and close sales leads. (LinkedIn – Pocket Guide)

I’d love to hear other people’s favorite LI hacks!
