LinkedIn Groups provide a place for professionals in the same industry or with similar interests to share content, find answers, post and view jobs, make business contacts, and establish themselves as industry experts.

You must learn to interact with LinkedIn Groups where other similar business owners are present. If availed properly, these groups can be utilized to help market your products, expand your market reach and evolve strategic networking opportunities for your business. Bear in mind that social networking is all about engaging and building relationships that can later result in sales and therefore should not be used blatantly for direct marketing and promotion.
