Set up profiles that include your own company name, brand name, and products or services plus variations thereof. Pay attention to the messages that come by and whether they are relevant.

For B2B marketers, however, LinkedIn is often one of the most important tools in the online marketing mix. On the largest business network in the world, campaigns such as Facebook are often neglected due to high costs and the fact that business contacts are much less active in profiling themselves than they would be in a personal capacity. However, business-to-business marketing on LinkedIn is not rocket science. I have previously written about the value of Product & Services recommendations . It takes you a few minutes every now and then to get it going. However, the recommendations of your satisfied customers provide a lot of visibility in second and third degree networks.
