In this episode, Sam interviews Morgan J Ingram, a top voice in sales on LinkedIn, about his journey in building a personal brand and using LinkedIn for business development.

Throughout the conversation, Morgan shares three tactical plays: the Boomerang, the Surprise Step Back, and the Did I Do Something Wrong? approaches. These plays involve leveraging past client relationships, engaging with profile viewers, and starting conversations with a simple question. Morgan also shares his insights on using voice notes as a powerful sales tool — and provides a framework for creating effective voice notes.
