Security
New users and regular users must systematically secure their accounts. Why?
- Competitors can easily steal your connections
- Hackers can get your data
Branding
A low level of commitment allows your competitors to shine: it is therefore really necessary to publish articles and publications.
Brand Image: Unifying accounts (banner, 5 liner, etc.) allows people to see you as the players of a single team.
Goals
People with fewer than 500 connections should try to achieve this goal.
Security settings
To secure your connections, you must follow 3 steps :
SECURE YOUR CONNECTIONS
You should be the only one to see your connections
HIDE WHAT DOES NOT NEED TO BE SHOWN
When you edit an item in your account, such as your profile picture or job title, no one should receive the "John Smith has a new job" notification.
OPTIONS: WHO HAS SEEN YOUR PROFILE + HIDE YOUR EMAIL
BRANDING
COVER IMAGE
-
Profil > See profil
-
Put an image of 1536 x 768 pixels including the logo of the company. See the example below.
-
We recommend using the same image for all employees -> no -> Having the same picture is like playing in a football team with different jerseys.
PERSONAL DESCRIPTION
Click on the blue logo (top left) / Update your profile / the pen icon on the right -> scroll down to "Summary"
-
Include a personal description that provides details about you.
You can also add a video about you
For example:
I am a dynamic team leader who can bring energy, excitement and humor to motivate team members to realize their potential and achieve their goals. I like being a skilled communicator, able to maintain cultural sensitivity, build relationships with members of various groups and promote team cohesion.
LOGO
When you enter your employer in your profile, search for "CTG - Computer Task Group" in the list of companies.
5 LINER
The CTG liner is the most important part of your presentation! Ask the LinkedIn Manager to provide the official text.
COMPANIES
Show a little love by following the groups and companies in which your prospects and your main customers are active.
Also follow the companies you just love!
How? - Enter the name of the company in the search bar. Click Follow.
- Examples of companies to follow : IBM, IRBC, Clearstream, CTIE, BIL, CSSF
- Companies that you like: SpaceX, Tesla, Apple, FT, Arendt, ...
POSTS & ARTICLES
You should have at least three posts and one article on your profile.
The "articles" are displayed in large format on your page, while the "messages" are displayed on LinkedIn's main thread. See below :
STEP 1:
Get an article from LinkedIn Manager or write one and have it validated. Post it with a catchy image. (The article will stay there until you publish a new one)
STEP 2: start posting / like, at least once a week
How?
1. ARTICLE: Main Page> "Write an article"
2. POST: Main page> "Share an article, a photo, a video or an idea" + "Publish"
SKILLS
-
Show your skills only if you have more than 25 recommendations
-
Recommend the skills of your relationships and they will do the same thing in return.
STRATEGIES
The ROLODEX approach:
Reproduce your real network on the Internet.
Result: Low leverage of LinkedIn's potential.
NB: Make sure you hide your connections.
SELECTIVE:
Expand your current contact base with specific targets using keywords such as "Asset Managers + Paris".
Protect your connections and interact with colleagues and their connections to get you introduced correctly
Result: Leverage focused on LinkedIn's potential.
ACTIVE:
Increase your current contact base exponentially. Invite 75 connections a day. Identify keywords and use filters for better results.
Result: significant leverage of LinkedIn's potential.
HOW TO MANAGE THE RISK OF NEGATIVE COMMENTS?
-
When posting, always stay positive and relevant.
-
If there is a negative comment, answer quickly, the conversation tends to end. (or delete the post)
-
Remember, not being on LinkedIn does not prevent others from posting negative comments about you. It's like a battlefield: you have to be there to control what's going on.
TIPS FOR PUBLICATION OF CONTENT
Make sure your network hears about you and your organization in a relevant way, for all texts, images and videos.
