Getting Started: LinkedIn

LinkedIn Profile Setup

LinkedIn company pages help build brand awareness by providing a channel to promote your products and services to customers and prospects.

Completed company profiles get 30 percent more weekly views so be sure to include the following:

  • Description—lead with relevant keywords and phrases that describe your company’s mission and purpose. LinkedIn members can search by keywords, so include words and phrases that describe your business, expertise, and industry focus.
  • Imagery—add your company logo and a cover image to bring your page to life. Graphic design tools like Canva can help anyone design professional, branded images.
  • Company information—provide your website URL, location, and select your industry and company size.
