2013: A New Year and Time to Turn Over a New Page

Whether you are in Dallas or Atlanta, our newest corporate office, or any city on this big planet, when it comes to strategic communications and marketing, 2013 will prove to be as fast-paced and challenging as this past year.  One way to get a jump on the new year is to make sure your Linkedin Company Page is up and running.  Here are the reasons why:

1. Linkedin is critical to engaging your professional audience.  Trust me, your employees and your competitor's employees are constantly on Linkedin.  And, trust me again, they are constantly updating their profiles.  Why would your company not do the same?  Without a Linkedin Company Page, you have no "landing page" within Linkedin for engagement.  And, your employees and supporters will not be able to promote the business.  If you do not have a Linkedin Company Page, and an engaging one at that, make sure that building it is your first resolution of the new year.

2. Linkedin is a great platform to drive business to your website.  Consistent Company Page updates help bring people to your dot com home, and, in many cases, can turn into professional leads and possible sales.  But, you have to work at Linkedin like you do your social media channels.  Considering your Linkedin Company Page as a static online billboard is a big mistake.  As the saying goes, "It works when you work it."

3. Think of Linkedin as a search engine microcosm.  Again, trust me when I say that your employees and your competitor's employees are using Linkedin.  And, they are constantly searching Linkedin.  Make sure your business is there when they do search.  And, make sure when they find you, your Company Page is up-to-date and engaging.
