FINDING YOUR LINKEDIN ID – STEPS

A quick question for you:

How much of your time and money with Linkedin Marketing is actually generating benefits for your business?
Is it really worth your endless time promoting your Linkedin account when you know you do not even own it?
Would you better off pivoting your marketing resources to other areas?

I see this ⛔️ MASSIVE ISSUE ⛔️ many times!

Many new business owners, entrepreneurs and marketers naively think the more noise they publish on LinkedIn, the more likely potential customers will like their brands and buy.

Does that sound like you?

That's ok.

You can always change the way you see Linkedin Marketing by starting a successful Social Media Strategy.

✅ Once you have your Social Media Strategy defined, many things will make more sense and I will assure you will look at Linkedin Marketing in a far different new way.

In fact, a well-crafted strategy will:

✔︎ Free up valuable time
✔︎ Make you produce far less but better quality content and,
✔︎ You will get greater results as followers and customers will notice.

If you believe you have a creative, passionate and curious mind, I invite you to read my article about How to write a killer Social Media Strategy.

I guarantee you will start doing Linkedin Marketing in a far more meaningful and effective way.

LINKEDIN ID – SOME OTHER USAGES

If you are developing a site or an application that taps into Linkedin through its API (application programming interface), you might find it useful. LinkedIn's API allows you to look up users and access their data by their numeric ID, which may be easier for your program to track than a full name.

DO NOT CONFUSE YOUR LINKEDIN ID WITH YOUR LINKEDIN URL

When you sign up for a Linkedin account, Linkedin assigns you a Web address that combines your name with a hexadecimal number that is related to your user ID. This URL is hard to remember and type and can also harm your search engine rankings. You can customise your Linkedin URL, though.
