How to use LinkedIn in 2017
New year…new ways…
Connection Based Content Creation …notifications that go out to all your connections every time content gets posted. This means that every piece of carefully crafted content can potentially end up in front of anyone that you are connected with on LinkedIn.
Action Plan
• Make a list.
• This list could include investors, clients and other potential partners.
• Once the list is done, go through one by one and add them to your network.
• Include a custom and highly personalize note for each person and begin to send requests.
Outbound Recruiting
• While in the past, options were limited to job boards, word of mouth referrals and expensive recruiters, Linkedin has opened the door to connect job seekers directly with employers like never before
• “84% of organizations are now recruiting on social media while only 56% of companies were hiring on in 2011.”
Action Plan:
• Use advanced search.
• Start with staff, end with CEO.
• Initiate conversions and open up dialogue.
