What Is Linkedin Today?

What is your least favorite part of the job search?

Recruiters pay a lot of money to find candidates. Businesses and sales people pay a lot of money to have their information put in your feed. The yellow pages are very sophisticated.

You go there to find a job, to find a company that you want to work for. When you're a jobseeker, you're trying to sell your skills to an employer. The yellow pages of LinkedIn are the modern day ones.

Businesses used to pay a premium to have a bigger presence in the yellow pages. Today is all that is known about LinkedIn. The networking thing is done.

There is a reason that few people are connecting and building relationships on there, and it is because people have no skin the game. The return on the investment is no longer there. It's just a place to put up your profile and webpage.

The bad news is that you can't create events on the professional networking site. It's free, and it's going to be great because people are going to start building events online and talking to one another, and that will improve the social marketplace situation a little bit, but it's not going to solve the problem. After all, it is not dying.

LinkedIn Page: How to Get Your Business Card

If you have a LinkedIn page, you'll be found in the search results when people look for businesses online. You can't rely on people to find your "contact us" page on your website. They know they can get more perspective on your business when they search for you on the internet.

When you meet someone at a networking event, you should get his or her business card. You can use LinkedIn for your social media, online business card. People can forget to return phone calls or email, they have business cards.

You can make sure you're not forgotten when you connect with LinkedIn. You can reach out to anyone you want. People use the professional networking site to look for jobs, post jobs, and get help with their business.

Boosting Company Page Posts

The new 'boost' option is similar to Facebook and will make it easier for brands to maximize their reach. The feature seeks to turn organic Page updates into paid ads, while also adding new tools to help maximize virtual events, and track their performance in the app. When you post an organic update to your company page, you can see it get some early traction, and you may want to use the new 'Boost' option to create a new ad.

As you can see, you'll soon see a new button your company page posts that will give you a quick and easy way to get more reach, if you're willing to pay for it. You can also add exclusions and set your budget. You click on 'boost' and your campaign begins.

A guide to boosting was published by LinkedIn. It could be a helpful way to get more eyeballs on your content, while also providing a means of organic testing, in that you can boost posts that are already gaining traction. It is not a bad idea to pay to reach people who already follow your company page on Facebook, but it is not a good idea to pay to reach people who are not already following your company page on LinkedIn.

It could be another option to consider, at least for experiments, as you look to maximize your LinkedIn performance. In response to increased demand due to the Pandemic, LinkedIn has been working to improve its virtual event options. The platform made its Events option available for all company pages last April, and added live-streaming for events a month later, providing new ways to facilitate connection in the app, and host virtual events that are linked back to your company presence.
