The use of big data intelligence for sales development is still in its infancy stages. At LinkedIn, we use big data to push the envelope in the sales development process. Traditional methods of sales development are less data driven and little has been done to quantitatively understand an accounts propensity to purchase. We develop a set of full funnel b2b sales models that incorporates both company and individuals information and synthesize such information to dynamically inform our sales team on how to best manage their sales development. We are able to produce an information machine that decides which firms to target, who to target within each firm, understand each individual's propensity change in real time during the sales process so that the sales team is better equipped to win business deals. - See more at: https://ieondemand.com/divisions/analytics/presentations/elevate-the-sales-process-b2b-sales-intelligence-with-linkedin-social-selling-data#sthash.yILVhWId.dpuf

One Two Punch – combining APS and IPS
• Field uses APS to decide which accounts to target
• IPS decides which members to target
• Combine both models (One Two Punch)

Summary of One Two Punch
• Finding high APS accounts to target, and then reaching out to high IPS members on those
accounts (who will likely be a champion for Sales Navigator) can increase win rates
significantly
• Next Steps
• Surface APS within Salesforce where sales reps can focus on prioritized information
right where they work
• Unlock online behavioral analytics through IPS for optimized prospecting efforts Work
• Top to bottom account allocation based on Project One-Two Punch recommendation
The power of LinkedIn’s platform grows exponentially as we continue to
Add more members
Get them to come back more often, and
Give them more reasons to engage on the site
These three actions drive network effects that form a virtuous cycle on LinkedIn. As membership grows, and activity on the platform increases, it improves the quantity and quality of data propagated throughout the network, which we then use to create better and more relevant products and services for our members and customers.
Many people use iceburg to describe big data and big analytics. But most of the people only see the portion above the ocean.
SSI is a great predictor of social selling behavior and IPS is for individual propensity to buy?
What’s missing from the picture is account level targeting metric, and here is where APS comes in
Here we show two companies that are highly similar in terms of SSI and SOP/ Sales Rep count, anyone what to guess which account has higher APS?
