3 Things That Can Go Wrong When Using Linkedin for Business

If you've been using LinkedIn for business, you may have noticed that there are some things that can go wrong when using it. We've compiled a list of three issues that we think you should know about.

  1. Not connecting with your clients: one of the best things about LinkedIn is the ability to connect with other professionals in your industry. This is a great way to connect with clients and potential clients, but it's also important to keep track of these connections. If you don't know how to manage these relationships, it can be difficult to stay in touch with them because they might forget who you are or how they met in the first place!
  1. Not having a professional profile: if your profile isn't up-to-date or doesn't include all the information needed for people to find out more about what you do, it will be hard for people who are looking for consultants like yourself to find out about your services quickly and easily! Make sure that your profile page includes all this information so that people can easily identify what you specialize in or what services you provide for them personally as well as professionally.
  1. You might get an email from someone who doesn't exist. If you receive an email from someone who doesn't exist on LinkedIn, delete it immediately. This is known as phishing—it's when a scammer sends out emails that look like they're from LinkedIn but aren't really. These emails usually ask you to click on a link or give them money. Don't do either!

In the end, figuring out how to use Linkedin business effectively just comes down to getting acquainted with the platform and figuring out what works for you. It may take some time to learn, but it's a worthwhile effort. That way, you can eventually put together a LinkedIn profile that makes your networking partners, clients, and customers sit up and take notice. And that's definitely a win-win situation.
