  3. 5 Reasons Your Employees Should Have a Noteworthy LinkedIn Profile
To gain knowledge and a clear perspective about your organization, prospective clients, and new hires, scan your company website, LinkedIn company page, and employee profiles mentioning your organization as a workplace. A holistic and comprehensive digital view is essential for any organization these days, including the employees. Brands are slowly realizing the importance of having the face of the organization represented on digital platforms through employees of all levels, not just focused on only a few selected higher-ups. Your employees can create moments and relationships that will resonate with prospects, clients, and potential hires, and they will consciously keep your firm top of their minds. LinkedIn could be the best platform to establish these professional connections and brand stories that will successfully resonate with your future prospects. Here are five solid reasons to encourage your employees to have strong and productive LinkedIn profiles.

LinkedIn is a great platform to show off your organization’s collective expertise. Your prospects and clients can review the expertise of your employees when these profiles are kept updated with experience, skills, endorsements, and notable achievements. In addition to this, your employees can also post new hires, job openings, and regular news updates to demonstrate the collective growth of your organization. This will eventually put your organization in front of the employee’s network, who can be your company’s potential prospects, clients, and job searchers. Of course, it’s also crucial that the heads of the organization should maintain a strong LinkedIn presence as they are the most well-known face of the organization. But the collective LinkedIn presence of your employees is essential to make your brand more authentic and human.

Effective Lead Nurturing

LinkedIn has 810 million members in total across 200 countries and regions globally, from which 61 million are senior-level decision-makers. LinkedIn may not be the largest social network like Facebook or Instagram, but with a specific business-focused audience, it’s an audience that can do magic for your business. A great LinkedIn presence will provide them insights into your organization and what could be their potential experience when they decide to collaborate with you. According to research, LinkedIn is one of the primary ways for prospects to assess whether they trust your organization to be competent enough to handle their projects, business purposes or collaborations. In addition, when your employees stay active on LinkedIn with a superior profile to others, it simply creates a positive public image for your firm and makes your brand more compelling.

Increased Visibility​

When your employees promote your firm by updating their profile as a current employer, this automatically links them to your company page. This is quite crucial because a person’s place of employment and job title are the only details you can have before clicking on their LinkedIn profile. Employees can also include a brief yet creative description of your organization under the experience section with the use of your relative keywords and a link to your organization’s website. They can also follow your company page so that it will be displayed in the “interests” section of LinkedIn. All these LinkedIn actions will greatly improve your LinkedIn search results, help your organization appear in search engine results, and eventually make your firm more visible.

Great Website Traffic​

LinkedIn is consistently driving great traffic to business websites, thanks to its unique algorithm and detailed functionalities, especially when your company profile stays updated and shares posts on trending topics. As your employees stay more active on LinkedIn and engage on your organization posts constantly, it will expand your reach and drive more reference audiences to your website.

Get Exceptional Talents​

LinkedIn is the most used tool for job seekers globally. Every minute, three people are hired on this platform. Prospective employees for your organization always want to get a sense of your work culture and see whether they should consider working with you in future. Even employers from other organizations keep a constant view on active profiles and positively promote their organization. This provokes employers to shortlist specific profiles with go notes for future reference. Effective employer branding will help your organization to acquire great talents with utmost trust and less search. No doubt, a strong LinkedIn presence is a must for businesses in today’s landscape. Keeping LinkedIn profiles up to date with proper details should be encouraged by every employer. In addition, inviting your employees to share their perspectives at select intervals can be quite effective for brand reach. We are sure that your employees will likely be happy to participate here with a little encouragement and a few reminders.
