LinkedIn, as a professional networking platform, offers unique opportunities for marketing. Whether you are marketing your business or yourself for a career move, being proactive on LinkedIn will provide a competitive advantage.
Here are 5 strategies that continue to be effective to gain more visibility and opportunities to engage with the ideal people you want to influence.
- Share Valuable Content Regularly: Consistently post high-quality content that is relevant to your target audience. This can include videos, single-image posts, and newsletters.
Add your best posts and newsletter to your profile’s FEATURED section.
2. Engage with Your Network: Interact with other users by liking, commenting, and sharing their posts. This helps to build relationships and increases your visibility.
This is also a ‘Top of Mind’ strategy that keeps your name and influence visible. Commenting is key to this strategy, being a lurker will never magically get you in front of the people you want to influence.
3. Consider LinkedIn Live Events: LinkedIn Live allows eligible members and Pages to broadcast live video content to a LinkedIn profile, LinkedIn Page, or Event. You can also hold audio events; these are great for discussions and audience participation.
4. Optimize Your Profile: Make sure your LinkedIn profile is complete, professional, and keyword-optimized. This will help you appear in more relevant search results and position your expertise often separating you from the competition.
