LinkedIn – CPC vs. CPM
• LinkedIn shows you a suggested bid range
using the current competing bids by other
advertisers targeting the same audience.
• The higher you bid in this range, the more
likely you are to receive impressions and
clicks.
• No set cost – you’re in competition with other
advertisers.

Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. Do you have a photo?Is your profile complete?What does your title say? Make it descriptiveYour summary – does it say what you do for potential customers?Are your skills and expertise listed? This is how people endorse you.Do you have at least 3 recommendationsDo you WORK LinkedIn daily
  2. Let’s examine LinkedIn first. Making connections and developing them on LinkedIn is important. Each connection is multiplied by the number of connections that person has. This is a very professional site, so your sphere of professional influence grows broader and deeper as you connect with more people. LinkedIn is an especially attractive site for B2B marketing. Spending time on LinkedIn, working your connections, will influence prospects and clients positively.Network: One good but easy way to network is to make it a practice to connect on LinkedIn with everyone you meet. And make it personal. Rather than use the default connection request, customize it to the person. For example: “I met you at the Chamber of Commerce event last night.
  3. Do you have a photo?Is your profile complete?What does your title say? Make it descriptiveYour summary – does it say what you do for potential customers?Are your skills and expertise listed? This is how people endorse you.Do you have at least 3 recommendationsDo you WORK LinkedIn daily
  4. Let’s look at a profile quickly.We’ve chosen this personal profile as an example because it demonstrates how your profile can stand out. First, instead of “Owner” or “President,” she’s used the words “Pharmaceutical Marketing Compliance Expert” in her title. When someone uses LinkedIn’s search engine to find this type of experts, her profile will be one of the first they see. Edit your LinkedIn URL (right underneath your photo is your LinkedIN URL. Here, in red, is my LinkedIn URL. Only you see your URL when you view your profile. I believe you have to have a certain number of connections, but when you are able to edit this URL, please do. It will normally have a string of letters and numbers, and what you want to do is make it as simple as possible, so you can add it to business cards, website, spec sheets, etc. URLs are first come, first served.
  5. Customize your website listings (you may list up to three). Describe them with good descriptors. For example: add website, blog and any other URL you have. Instead of calling the url for you blog “Blog” call it something interesting like: “Articles of interest.”Add images to the profile – logos of associations - projects Add projects to your profile on LinkedIn. You can talk about a solution that you provided to a client and how you helped to solve their problem. Posting projects is similar to adding case studies – you don’t have to give the client name, just talk about what they do and how you helped them solve a problem. Let’s take a look at her summary.Company LinkedIn page. If you do, there are a few rules. One is that companies must have their own distinct email domain to create a Company Page. LinkedIn wants to know that you do work at that company - gmail or hotmail address won’t work.Why build a company page? You can invite customers to recommend your products or services. Recommendations provide an authentic endorsement, making it easier for prospective customers to feel confident about doing business with you. In your personal profile, you can link to your company LinkedIn page. So now you are giving prospects more information at who you are and what your company offers to them. How to build, look at Help Center
  6. The Skills and Expertise section of LinkedIn provide a snapshot of your value. List your most important skills first. This person has her knowledge of the “Pharmaceutical Industry” first – and note that she has 30 endorsements for this expertise. When you list skills and expertise in your profile, put them in the order of importance. But here’s a note about that – You can only re-order the skills or expertise on your profile that do NOT haveendorsements– so it’s a good idea to re-order now if you don’t yet have many endorsements!
