3. Optimising your LinkedIn company page
Updated content & highlighted offerings
Keep your business fresh in your connections mind, by appearing in their news feed regularly. You
can post updates with company news or links to industry specific information which might be of
interest to your connections. Links to your website blog entries are great for LinkedIn updates if
you have a blog set up on your website. Highlight the products and services that your business
offers in the ‘Products & Services’ area to make your connection aware of what you can do for
them. This is a great place to include any presentations or guides your company has, to give your
connections further information with call to actions.

message further to like-minded connections. Invite your personal connections, email subscribers and
other social media connections to follow your company page. You can also increase your network by
