Mike Marko Publishes Expert Guide on How to Use LinkedIn Effectively for Business
April 11, 2019 – – Mike Marko with IM Consultant Services in Cincinnati, Ohio, has published an expert guide on how to use LinkedIn effectively. Because LinkedIn is one of the leading social networking sites available for business owners, most marketers want to know how to properly use the platform and its features. Because of this, Marko has decided to share his knowledge and LinkedIn for business tips.
As an online business marketer who also struggled in the past to create a LinkedIn marketing strategy, Marko says that other business owners should not be intimidated by LinkedIn’s seemingly complex platform. In fact, Marko says that LinkedIn is the perfect place to show off products and achievements while also recruiting talent or partnering up with other businesses. This is why he wants his readers to know more about how they can effectively use LinkedIn, and not just create a LinkedIn account.
“There are around 100 million users that you can market your business to on LinkedIn,” says Marko. “While using LinkedIn inefficiently, you are at risk of losing a lot of potential consumers every day. So, every business owner needs to work on their LinkedIn activity in order to properly use the platform. LinkedIn content sharing has already gone down because of improper LinkedIn marketing strategies. However, this means that significant results are available for business owners who are willing to make an effort on LinkedIn. And if you’re willing to put in that effort in order to grow your business through LinkedIn, then you can use my tips in order to get a head start.”
Marko’s first tip to using LinkedIn effectively is to publish and share relevant content. As with any other social networking site, content is very important. In order to show an audience that a business page on LinkedIn is worth following and connecting with, it’s necessary to show that the business has content that consumers can deem useful. Only sharing content that promotes a business can discourage potential consumers because not all of that content is bound to be relevant to them.
In order to make it easier for business owners to know what relevant content they should share, Marko says they should start with creating a buyer persona. According to him, identifying their target consumer can help business owners see what they should cater to. Marko even gave a couple of guide questions that can help business owners build their buyer persona. After that, it will be easier for them to identify what their buyers would want to see.
To further encourage the publication of relevant and informative content, Marko also comments that doing this can help business owners gather more followers. He advises his readers to create a buyer persona to cater to. If they do that and use it to guide their content production, the users that fit that buyer persona will most likely be drawn to their business page because of their content. Marko also advises his readers to try to link to their LinkedIn business profile in their own website or other social media accounts. Business owners can even go as far as attaching their LinkedIn information to their email signature.
Business employees and business partners can also play a large role in growing a business’s LinkedIn audience. Business owners can ask their employees and business partners to promote their LinkedIn details to other connections. They can even leave feedback on a business’s LinkedIn profile to help promote the business’s legitimacy.
Next, Marko mentions that LinkedIn business owners can use tracking and analytics in order to keep improving their LinkedIn marketing strategy and content. By using tracking and analytics, business owners will be able to see how well or how badly their content is doing. Marko recommends that business owners should learn from the data that they receive from analytics in order to be able to produce better content in the future. According to him, the data can serve as an indicator of whether a business owner should continue what he’s doing or improve it.
Marko also mentions that business owners should experiment with video and photos for their content. According to him, a wall of text isn’t going to be appealing for most LinkedIn users. Therefore, business owners should learn how to create graphics or videos that can be eye-catching enough to encourage users to read what their content has to say. Marko even adds that photos and videos can tell more about a brand and their services without overwhelming users with text.
Lastly, Marko mentions that business owners can create LinkedIn Showcase Pages. According to him, these LinkedIn Showcase Pages can highlight important content that business owners want their followers to notice. These pages can even serve as an extension of a business page in order to share more important and specific content.
