Using Linkedin Profile Bridges To Avoid Audience Rental

If Linkedin made a change tomorrow that killed your content engagement would your business be in trouble? Or what if they removed all notifications related to messaging? Would your bottom line be affected?

For most companies that use Linkedin for sales and marketing the answer to both those questions is yes. And that, is a big liability.

Linkedin Profile Bridges

Facebook, Twitter, Insta – If your original conversation with someone is on one of those platforms there’s no easy bridge to start communicating with that person outside that platform. That’s intentional – no one wants you leaving their app.
