There is a good AskSC question on this and there are some very good answers.
I just want to share an experience I had with LinkedIn.
Every new connection I receive in LinkedIn receives an email from me doing three things.
1. Asking why did they connect with me.
2. Asking what they do and how do they use LinkedIn to do it. This may be modified by asking How they are doing if their business is clearly mentioned in their profile.
3. A video link to that explains How to maximize the value of their LinkedIn experience. I explain at this point that I am a Team Leader and Trainer and I want them to value from their experience with me.
To this people respond in 2 ways. with introductions and appreciations or blatant ads about their business. Where appropriate, I respond to these LinkedIn Mails. Always appropriate with the first group, sometimes with the second group.
I was responding to LinkedIn mail and this is why Badges are so important.
Eric asked me about my business and if I was successful. I told him I am very successful online in SFI. I have been with them going on 4 years now and as of 2013 I left my full time job and work SFI full time.
He then asked if I could demonstrate that success to him so that he might know if it is real or not. I said, "Visit my page and see for yourself." Then I gave him my joinmysfiteam link. "Visit this page", I said, "and see my successes. Especially note two badges, Top 100 Sellers and Top 15 sponsors. There are thousands of sponsors in SFI and I am number 15. This based on ratings from our affiliates. I know how to sell, and I know how to teach others to sell. Together we rise."
Eric is ready to go, and my badges helped him get there. But you may want to call attention to specific badges that might demonstrate to your prospects that you are a serious player in the online marketing world.
