“Sorry, {our clients} do not have a need to market themselves on LinkedIn or other social media channels.”
Yes, you read it right.
My proposal to educate and enlighten their audience was rejected for that reason.
Now I can take rejection. And you have to accept it if you are an entrepreneur, but I had to reply:
“I would tend to disagree that {your clients) have no need for LinkedIn. Corporate execs in all fields and all seniorities have a need for branding themselves, their departments and their company. I teach that too.”
As I often say as the LinkedIn evangelist, “I can’t convert the heathen all of the time.”
