Struggling to turn LinkedIn® CONNECTIONS into actual SALES through social selling?
If your social selling strategy is just posting and hoping, why not do something about it?


It’s the MAIN reason why your inbox is crickets instead of conversations.

Start treating LinkedIn® as the social selling engine it’s meant to be.

Scrolling LinkedIn® without a social selling system to build trust and authority = LOST opportunities.

Missing quota is FRUSTRATING, and watching competitors win deals that should be yours is PAINFUL.

Imagine your perfect buyer is reading your profile right now.

But you don’t stand out.

You don’t engage them.

You’re blending in with every other salesperson pitching in the DMs, and they’re tuning you out.

With over 1 billion professionals on LinkedIn® daily, your social selling strategy must build credibility, trust, and real conversations.

Right now, if you’re just connecting and hoping....you’re:

→ REPELLING potential buyers.
→ LOSING to competitors who’ve mastered social selling.
→ MISSING out on revenue-driving conversations.

But if you take CONTROL and implement a proven social selling system, you:

→ ATTRACT inbound leads instead of chasing.
→ START conversations that turn into booked meetings.
→ BUILD relationships that shorten sales cycles and increase deal sizes.

LinkedIn® is the most powerful social selling TOOL today when used correctly.

"Salespeople who effectively use social selling on LinkedIn® generate 45% more opportunities per quarter."
LinkedIn® Sales Solutions

The right social selling system turns LinkedIn® into a pipeline-building machine.

But this isn’t about YOU; it’s about your BUYERS.

You need to be where they are, speak their language, and solve their problems through social selling.

To generate leads on LinkedIn® consistently, you need a repeatable social selling framework that includes:

→ A LinkedIn® profile optimized for social selling and trust-building.
→ Messaging that starts conversations instead of getting ignored.
→ A social selling content strategy that builds authority and warms up leads.
→ A connection strategy that grows your network with qualified buyers.
→ A DM strategy that turns engagement into booked meetings using social selling best practices.

Not convinced?

I guarantee results. If you don’t generate new sales conversations using social selling in your first 30 days, I’ll work with you until you do.

Let’s turn your LinkedIn® into a social selling pipeline-building machine.

I never gave a hoot about going Viral, neither should you.
{you'll want to save this for later}

LinkedIn gurus love to talk about templates, comments, low-value lead magnets, infographics, etc.

You don't even have enough time to digest one lead magnet or infographic before you see another pop up.

ENOUGH 🥴

Where is the actionable advice?
Where is the work itself? 
Where are the snapshots?


Their hustle:

You show them plenty of love, their reach expands, and the cycle continues.

(All while they use engagement pods and lie about it)

Guru: "Comment 20 to 30 times a day, oh, and be first to comment."

Guru Again: "Ohh, and don't forget...make sure to focus on big creators for visibility."

(All along, they are all in the same "Mastermind group")

You: Comment on their post right after they publish"

"WOW, 10k people saw my comment"

"NICE, I got 30 connection requests (Not you ICP)"

"WAIT, I'm getting pitched by people I connected with after I made that comment"

"WAIT...WTF is going on"

Don't continue this nonsense in 2026

You make NO money chasing likes.

Seriously...The bar has never been lower for social selling.

Founder, DemandJen | Sales Trainer & SKO Keynote Speaker | Dog Rescue Advocate

I help B2B revenue teams stop losing pipeline to buyer status quo. I'm a former Enterprise seller who carried quota for 18 years, closing 7-figure deals with Fortune 500 brands. Now, I run DemandJen, a sales-training firm trusted by Autodesk, GE, G2, IBM, Bloomberg, Instructure, Sprout Social, and more.

From conference stages to company Sales kickoffs, I'm known for:

- Buyer-Centric Frameworks – Practical playbooks for defeating buyer status quo in outbound pipeline generation, running executive-level discovery, building a point of view on cost of inaction (COI), and gaining consensus with larger Enterprise buying groups. 

- Story-First Messaging – Techniques that replace product pitches with problem-centric narratives that buyers remember.

- Engaging Delivery – A direct, humorous style that keeps even your most tenured reps taking notes.

Featured in Forbes, Sales Hacker, and 200+ podcasts, I combine real-world stories with data-driven insight to move audiences from inspiration to application. When I'm not on the road, you’ll find me in the Chicago suburbs chasing my 4 rescue dogs and 4 step-kids.

Head of DemandJen

Delivering SKO keynotes & virtual workshops that won't put your teams to sleep.

B2B Sales & Marketing teams have tried to earn buyer time and attention with a strategy of "more". 

More dials.
More emails.
More content.
More "value" and ROI.

But, 2023 showed us "more" is expensive and no competition against today's risk-averse B2B buying teams.

Instead of motivating the team to do “more”, I help empower teams to defeat customer status
quo and to make their sales conversations a competitive advantage.

Last January, I posted about how I collected social proof from 51 clients in 4 simple steps. It costs $0. I started doing this when I was an AE, but now I do it religiously as a solo business.
