The financial services industry is on the brink of wholescale digital disruption. We are starting to see an increasing number of case studies and stories in finance news showing the power of social media in wealth and banking relationships. Social business is here to stay but there is still a lot of unknown in what and how to act to get the most benefit.
LinkedIn gains 2 new members a second and has more than 6 million members in Australia, roughly 9 out of 10 professionals. Combine this data with the ability to segment by seniority, job title, even where their company sits in the Fortune 1000 – it makes sense that so many financial institutions are leveraging the platform.
Our financial services breakfast will examine how organisations can leverage LinkedIn database to build profitable relationships with the hard to reach financial buyer.
