Linkedin is a Unique Platform

Unlike Facebook or
Twitter, there is no way
to mask who you are on
Linkedin.

Users must engage on
behalf of themselves.

HOW TO ENGAGE ON LINKEDIN
#1: Share First, Product Second
• Conversation on LinkedIn is dominated by professionals
  seeking to help each other out.

• Because of this, an environment of overt selling is usually
  discouraged.

• Instead, you should try to provide as much non-product-specific
  value upfront.

• Once you have gained acceptance, you are able to potentially
  suggest your product as the right solution, if the opportunity
  presents itself.
#2: Be Transparent


• Always introduce yourself into a discussion with a statement of
  transparency such as…


   “Hi I’m {X}, I work in product communications for {Y}
   company – I think I can help share some of my
   insights.”


• This helps to set the stage that you are not overtly engaging
  JUST to push a product.
#3: Stay On Topic


                               • Though it might be tempting to
                                 shoehorn in a link to a white paper
                                 or other piece of intellectual
                                 capital, the best way to market in
                                 LinkedIn Groups is to wait for the
                                 right moment and only suggest
                                 materials that are on-topic.

                               • Suggesting off-topic resources or


O.C.D.
                                 trying to steer the conversation in a
                                 direction that others don’t want
                                 may result in you being banned
                                 from certain groups.
(obsessive closing disorder)
#4: Don’t Spam

• Marketing in LinkedIn groups is much more a courtship than it
  is a peppering of your promotional messages or links
  wherever you can.

• Be respectful of the
  conversation, only engage
  in discussions where you
  know you are on-topic and
  only share links or
  promotional messages
  when you know – without
  a doubt – that you are
  adding additional on-topic
  value.
To Recap: How to Engage on Linkedin



1. Share First, Product Second

2. Be Transparent

3. Stay On Topic

4. Don’t Spam

LinkedIn for B2B

  • 1. “Your Profile is Showing” Leveraging the Power of Linkedin for B2B Marketing
  • 2. Why Linkedin is GREAT for B2B ABOUT The standard LinkedIn is male (57.9%) and aged between 25 147 MILLION and 54 years (67.7%); compared to the previous year, the LINKEDIN MEMBERS percentage of teenagers (18-24) has grown more than other age WORLDWIDE groups Source: Amodiovalerio Verde, Linkedin, DEMOGRAPHICS & STATISTICS - JAN 2012
  • 3. Why Linkedin is GREAT for B2B Source: Amodiovalerio Verde, Linkedin, DEMOGRAPHICS & STATISTICS - JAN 2012
  • 4. Power? They Haz It 39% of Linkedin members are either a Manager, Director, Owner, Chief Officer or Vice President Source: Amodiovalerio Verde, Linkedin, DEMOGRAPHICS & STATISTICS - JAN 2012
  • 5. Linkedin is a Unique Platform Unlike Facebook or Twitter, there is no way to mask who you are on Linkedin. Users must engage on behalf of themselves.
  • 9. “Your Profile Is Showing” HOW TO ENGAGE ON LINKEDIN
  • 10. #1: Share First, Product Second • Conversation on LinkedIn is dominated by professionals seeking to help each other out. • Because of this, an environment of overt selling is usually discouraged. • Instead, you should try to provide as much non-product-specific value upfront. • Once you have gained acceptance, you are able to potentially suggest your product as the right solution, if the opportunity presents itself.
  • 11. #2: Be Transparent • Always introduce yourself into a discussion with a statement of transparency such as… “Hi I’m {X}, I work in product communications for {Y} company – I think I can help share some of my insights.” • This helps to set the stage that you are not overtly engaging JUST to push a product.
  • 12. #3: Stay On Topic • Though it might be tempting to shoehorn in a link to a white paper or other piece of intellectual capital, the best way to market in LinkedIn Groups is to wait for the right moment and only suggest materials that are on-topic. • Suggesting off-topic resources or O.C.D. trying to steer the conversation in a direction that others don’t want may result in you being banned from certain groups. (obsessive closing disorder)
  • 13. #4: Don’t Spam • Marketing in LinkedIn groups is much more a courtship than it is a peppering of your promotional messages or links wherever you can. • Be respectful of the conversation, only engage in discussions where you know you are on-topic and only share links or promotional messages when you know – without a doubt – that you are adding additional on-topic value.
  • 14. To Recap: How to Engage on Linkedin 1. Share First, Product Second 2. Be Transparent 3. Stay On Topic 4. Don’t Spam
