MAKE YOUR MARK ON LINKEDIN

To make a mark, you first need to be present. Being present means maintaining an active and visible profile on LinkedIn, while presenting yourself involves how you portray your expertise and achievements to your audience. Both are crucial for creating a compelling LinkedIn profile that highlights your unique value proposition.

TO PRESENT AND TO BE PRESENT


Present: one word for different meanings. Presenting yourself involves curating your profile and sharing your story, crafting a narrative that showcases your expertise, achievements, and professional journey in a way that resonates with your target audience. Being present, on the other hand, refers to your consistent activity on LinkedIn, such as regularly logging in, engaging with content, and staying updated with industry trends, making you a constant, visible part of your professional community. Both concepts share the word “present,” but they carry different meanings in the context of building a LinkedIn presence.

Steps to Enhance your Presence

 

To effectively establish your presence on LinkedIn, it’s essential to implement strategic actions that ensure you stand out and engage meaningfully with your audience. 

Before diving into the “Present, Engage, Grow” (PEG) approach for your LinkedIn marketing strategy, it’s essential to set clear goals. Defining your objectives will help you measure your success and make data-driven decisions as you progress through the Engage and Grow stages.

Once you have this clear, the following steps will help you optimize your profile, showcase your achievements, and maintain consistent content creation, forming a comprehensive approach to building a strong LinkedIn presence.

Profile Optimization

Whether for a personal or a company page, profile optimization is crucial for creating a professional and appealing LinkedIn presence. Use a high-quality, professional photo, write a strong headline, and craft a detailed summary that captures your unique value proposition. 

For company pages, ensure that your logo, company information, and a compelling overview are included. This sets the foundation for how you present yourself or your business, making a strong first impression and attracting the right audience.

Showcase Achievements

Highlight key accomplishments, projects, and skills. This not only builds credibility but also allows others to understand your professional journey and the milestones of your company. Regularly posting updates about your achievements, company milestones, and new projects is crucial for maintaining visibility and keeping your audience engaged.

Content Creation 

Regularly posting articles, updates, and insights relevant to your field is important to keep you visible and active, but on top of that it contributes to being present in the minds of your network. Moreover, it also positions you as an expert in your area of business. By consistently sharing valuable content, you establish thought leadership and demonstrate your expertise to your connections and followers.
