Apart from recruiters, it didn\u2019t seem like a platform to be used by companies. <\/p>\n<p>Over time, that\u2019s changed a lot, particularly as LinkedIn has rolled out features to help set up and maintain company pages as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/blog\/2016\/05\/connect-with-customers-on-linkedin.html\">an extension of a business\u2019s existing digital presence<\/a>. Given that many people <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/blog\/2016\/03\/dos-and-donts-linkedin-sales.html\">use LinkedIn to share insight<\/a> and professional accomplishments, it\u2019s a natural venue for organizations to align their brand. <\/p>\n<p>What does that mean in practice, though? SMBs might be put off by LinkedIn at first because it seems like just another social media channel to manage. It\u2019s also a place where, based on the work-related nature of the discussions, more \u201cfun\u201d or creative content doesn\u2019t seem to have a place. <\/p>\n<p>Firms that have spent time on LinkedIn know the opposite is true. When you begin to view LinkedIn as less of a discrete activity and more as an environment to help execute your marketing strategy, the benefits can be enormous. <\/p>\n<p>For starters, LinkedIn provides details about individual people using its platform \u2014 far more than the bio area of a Twitter profile allows, and is naturally less focused on personal interests than what you would see on Facebook or Instagram. <\/p>\n<p>LinkedIn has also evolved into a truly multimedia opportunity, where companies can not only post text but strong images and video. Engagement is also relatively straightforward, given that analytics are built directly into company pages. <\/p>\n<p>What follows are simply a few ideas of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/blog\/2017\/03\/market-business-on-linkedIn.html\">where SMBs can use LinkedIn for marketing<\/a>. The specifics of what you do and how you do it will depend on your company\u2019s business goals, your marketing strategy and your team\u2019s ability to deliver relevant content \u2014just like every other marketing channel. <\/p>\n<h2>LinkedIn as a place to distribute the best SMB content<\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019ve had a marketing team of any kind in place for a while, you probably already have a lot you can repurpose or amplify on LinkedIn. This could include blog posts, infographics and even video clips that have only been shared on Twitter or directly through your email newsletter until now. <\/p>\n<p>Sharing these kinds of assets on LinkedIn is literally as simple as clicking a button, but that\u2019s not all you should do. Treat the text you add to your post with the same care you would put into a landing page on your site, or a digital ad you would run. Make sure it reflects the value of the content you\u2019re sharing without giving too much away. <\/p>\n<p>And don\u2019t forget hashtags! LinkedIn now supports the use of hashtags in a way that\u2019s similar to Twitter, and you\u2019ll get notified if you content begins \u201ctrending\u201d in a particular category. If you\u2019re not sure what hashtags to use, LinkedIn will suggest some for you.<\/p>\n<p>Your LinkedIn feed doesn\u2019t simply have to be limited to your own content. Have one of your subject matter experts offer a one or two-sentence take on the latest industry research. Showcase a successful project from one of your best customers. Although it\u2019s a great marketing channel, LinkedIn is still a social channel, and it should be approached as such. <\/p>\n<h2>LinkedIn as a place to meet customers and prospects<\/h2>\n<p>Anyone can follow a LinkedIn company page, like or comment on a post shared by a company, or reshare content from a company page to their own network. That means you need to be prepared to not only drive engagement but respond to engagement. <\/p>\n<p>Much like Twitter, LinkedIn can become a place where customers share feedback (good or bad) about their experience. This is not only a way to get at service issues, but to provide a brand consistency in the way you talk about your values and how you want to serve your community. <\/p>\n<p>Similarly, your LinkedIn page can be followed by everyone in your company, and they should be given guidelines on how best to connect with those who engage with your company\u2019s LinkedIn content. <\/p>\n<p>If someone who fits your ideal customer profile reshares your company\u2019s LinkedIn post, for instance, should one of your sales reps \u201clike\u201d it, comment or reach out to gauge their interest in your products and services through InMail? <\/p>\n<p>In some cases, LinkedIn may be a mechanism to get to know your target audience in a less \u201csalesy\u201d setting, where they can participate as they choose and get to know your firm before they\u2019re approached as part of a more traditional campaign that\u2019s run through marketing automation tools like <a href=\"https:\/\/salesforce.com\/ca\/products\/marketing-cloud\">Marketing Cloud<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>LinkedIn as a place to showcase your purpose<\/h2>\n<p>The best marketing involves more than discussions about a company\u2019s products and services. It should also reflect who you are as a brand \u2014 and what you stand for. <\/p>\n<p>If your organization is involved in a corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiative or project, even if it\u2019s just a few employees volunteering at a local charity, you can use LinkedIn to talk about why you\u2019re doing it and what it means. <\/p>\n<p>People on LinkedIn aren\u2019t just looking for jobs or trying to \u201cshine.\u201d They\u2019re human beings who are looking to be inspired as well as educated. Think about how this platform can not only advance your bottom line but also offer a way to articulate your vision around issues that are important to customers and future employees. Some examples could include diversity and inclusion, equal pay or even environmental stewardship. <\/p>\n<p>Once you\u2019ve explored all these areas, avoid the most common pitfall in using LinkedIn for SMB marketing: Make sure everything on your company page is accurate and consistent, whether that\u2019s contact information, your logo or other elements. And don\u2019t let your LinkedIn page become orphaned or abandoned. <\/p>\n<p>Like every social channel, LinkedIn can help companies in many ways, but only if you maintain it the way you would any digital entity you own directly. <\/p>\n<p> <span id=\"authorRoot\" path=\"\/content\/blogs\/ca\/en\/authors\/\"><\/span> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There\u2019s always a difference between using a social media platform in your personal time and using it as a marketing channel for your company, and that\u2019s particularly true of small and medium-sized businesses that want to reach their audience via LinkedIn.<br \/>\nIn its earliest days, LinkedIn came across<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1602,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"sf_justforyou_enable_alt":true,"optimizely_content_id":"","post_meta_title":"","ai_synopsis":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"sf_topic":[1],"sf_content_type":[],"coauthors":[2],"class_list":["post-1600","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","sf_topic-small-business"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.2 (Yoast SEO v27.2) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>How Small Businesses Can Use LinkedIn For Marketing - Salesforce<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"There\u2019s always a difference between using a social media platform in your personal time and using it as a marketing channel for your company, and that\u2019s particularly true of small and medium-sized businesses that want to reach their audience via LinkedIn.
