Social media is a great way to get people to trust you -- but you have to be (and be able to prove) you are trustworthy. Do you have reviews and/or testimonials from clients? Those are proof points. Do you have guarantees in place? Those are proof points. Do you have clients and friends recommending you? That's how you build trust, and it is indeed often a missing link to generating sales from social media efforts. Aaron, that’s so true.
