Build trust and authority to close more deals. Trust and credibility form the bedrock of successful sales as underscored by Patrick.

About Patrick Baynes
Working at LinkedIn started his career in technology and was the perfect launch pad into the internet and software space. He was once told that if you sliced him open to see what he was made of, it would mostly be LinkedIn DNA; He's ok with that. Following LinkedIn he co-founded PeopleLinx, the first employee-based social marketing solution for LinkedIn. The company was acquired in 2015 by Frontline. He purchased and resurrected the PeopleLinx brand in 2023.
