AA-ISP Frontline Friday: How Microsoft's Purchase of LinkedIn Impacts Your Sales and Marketing Strategies

OVERVIEW
Microsoft’s acquisition of LinkedIn for $26.2 billion is one of the largest tech acquisitions in 20 years. The acquisition of the world’s largest social network for business by the world’s largest software company is bound to have far reaching effects for many decades.

But what does it mean to your business right now?

The short answer is that companies need to become a “social business” now in order to remain competitive in the future. Waiting until LinkedIn is fully integrated in Windows XX is like sticking with typewriters when personal computers hit the market.

Join LinkedIn and Social Selling expert Kurt Shaver as he explains how this milestone deal will impact you and your sales teams.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This interactive session is designed for salespeople and sales management leaders interested in staying competitive in the social networking era.

Attendees will learn:
-What’s in it for Microsoft?
-What changes can you expect in LinkedIn?
-What steps should your company and team take today to avoid getting left behind?
