10 Activities All Professionals do on Linkedin!

Most Professionals have a simple, accurate and complete understanding of LinkedIn Marketing. LinkedIn is considered the best professional social networking site which will not only help you connect with people but also to grow your businesses.
It also helps portray a trustworthy image which is constructive and respectful in order to achieve your business goals.

10 Important Activities you as a Professional need to apply:

  1. Create a quality profile
    Your LinkedIn profile should portray your business in a very creative and attractive manner. It should showcase your products in the best possible way. A LinkedIn profile is the most suitable way of evoking interest towards your website. Have a profile that is complete and updated regularly. Give a detailed description of what you do and describe your business properly to get quality traffic.
  2. Personalize each invite
    People are usually attracted towards personalized or tailored invites. A Personalized invitation creates stronger positive impressions of your business. To gain a targeted audience, personalized invitations are an asset for your business. Personalize your recommendation requests and offer a reciprocal if appropriate. Personalized invites are less likely to be marked as spam and will drive more traffic for your business. Try to include a message along with your invite in order to get the best results.
  3. Post timely and relevant updates
    Updates help strengthen relationships with your business connections which are necessary when you post vital information related to your business. Updates made should be relevant, meaningful and differentiated.
    If the updates made are not related to your targeted audience, then they are more likely to be ignored by your connections, and may distract them from your profile.
  4. Make your profile public
    If your LinkedIn profile is set in private mode, then no one other than your connections can view it. A LinkedIn public profile can easily be viewed by your targeted traffic through various search engines whether they are your connections or not.
    You can manage your public profile settings by clicking on Edit Profile and then on manage Public Profile Setting. Making your profile public will help you in getting appropriate traffic in order to boost your sales and profits.
    It also gives you a chance to increase your followers in the long run.
  5. Best use of LinkedIn Ads
    LinkedIn helps you promote your business by posting ads regarding your products or services on it. Posting ads will help drive subscribers to you. These are paid ads which help get targeted customers for your business.
  6. Respond promptly to messages
    Many people ignore LinkedIn messages. However, they’re equally as important as business calls or emails. They can also help you by bringing your audience to you which would increase your list of subscribers. In LinkedIn etiquette, it is considered that LinkedIn messages should be treated just like your emails and should be responded to promptly.
  7. Be professional
    Your business profile should be highly professional and effective so you can create a genuine reputation for your business.
    Your LinkedIn profile enables you to engage with your audience and build your brand, as well. A professional LinkedIn profile helps achieve your targets, so make the most of it. Use appropriate content on LinkedIn so that you can get better responses from your target audience.
  8. Make the best use of social contacts
    To increase your list of targeted contacts, go to other social media platforms, invite your contacts to become your connections and increase your profits. Use your social contacts to gain referrals and audience for your business.
    You can also share your contact list with your new connections so that they can bring you more targeted audience to your business and help you build your business’ brand.
  9. Have quality networks
    Everyone likes to have a large network where he or she can promote their business in a fruitful manner. Having a large number of contacts is good for your business, but having quality contacts should be given the utmost priority.
    Most potential customers will dig deeper when checking out your business profile, and will judge your business by the profile details and the amount of quality networks you possess. Try to get quality connections rather than having a huge group that won’t help your business.
  10. Contribute to discussions
    Post updates or start a discussion on your profile to get more quality connections. Be active while contributing in discussions and try to relate your comments to your business. Interact with others, join discussions and share your expertise to get quality traffic to your business profile that will benefit your business. While doing this, don’t get involved with too many groups or discussions.
    A major benefit that is gained when joining discussions is that your contacts can easily learn your growth parameters, and feel more connected to you.

You can follow the above mentioned pointers to increase your brand loyalty on LinkedIn, which is very helpful to drive targeted traffic to your business. Post updates regularly and build a network that will bring benefits to your business.
Keep all these points in mind and march on to the path of progress 🙂
