7 Days, 3.5 Hours: Your One-Week Sprint to a Stellar LinkedIn Page<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

You have 30 minutes per day over the course of one full week \u2014 seven consecutive days \u2014 to turn your corporate LinkedIn page around. What do you do? When?<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s one possible answer.<\/p>\n

Day One: Choose Stunning Profile Images<\/h2>\n

Your LinkedIn profile picture is the first thing visitors see when they land on your page; your banner image, a close second. Take your time combing through your image library (or your go-to stock photo gallery, let\u2019s be real) to find the perfect combination. LinkedIn has a nice primer on profile pic best practices<\/a>, if you need more guidance.<\/p>\n

Day Two: Shore Up the Boring Stuff<\/h2>\n

Confirm that your page\u2019s company information section is complete and accurate: location and address, year founded, employee count. Think intentionally about your stated specialties \u2014 these matter to job-seekers and prospective clients.<\/p>\n

If this task doesn\u2019t take the full 30 minutes, great. Allocate the extra time accordingly.<\/p>\n

Day Three: Collect Evergreen Third-Party Content<\/h2>\n

Begin collecting and organizing relevant third-party content to share and repost on your site. Take a page (no pun intended) from this company\u2019s LinkedIn profile<\/a>, which reposts a mixture of company-produced and third-party blog content. Collect enough to support a rolling two-week backlog on your current publishing schedule.<\/p>\n

Day Four: Write a Compelling Company Description and Mission Statement<\/h2>\n

Put your sharpest tongues and pens together in a room and don\u2019t let them leave until they\u2019ve finalized a fantastic company description worthy of your LinkedIn profile. Shoot for 400 words or less, and make it punchy. Top it off with a succinct, one-sentence mission statement that perfectly encapsulates what you do.<\/p>\n

Day Five: Engage With Five Influencers in Your Industry<\/h2>\n

\u201cEngage\u201d means many different things. Start off slow, by liking and commenting on influencers\u2019 posts. If you have time, fire off quick messages asking if they\u2019d like to contribute a short post to your LinkedIn feed. Offer to reciprocate, of course.<\/p>\n

Day Six: Encourage Your Employees to Link Their Personal Profiles<\/h2>\n

Send out an all-company email asking employees (respectfully) to list your company as their employer on their LinkedIn profiles. Boosting your listed employee count is a great way to lend your page some much-needed legitimacy.<\/p>\n

Day Seven: Write Your First Original Post<\/h2>\n

Spend day seven writing your first original LinkedIn blog post. It doesn\u2019t have to be long or fancy: a text-only 500-word summary of a new initiative or industry trend should suffice.<\/p>\n

On to Week Two<\/h2>\n

Exhausted yet?<\/p>\n

Nah, you\u2019ve tackled tougher tasks than shoring up your corporate LinkedIn page. But the job isn\u2019t done \u2014 not by a long shot.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll need to work hard to sustain the momentum you\u2019ve built this week. And you probably won\u2019t be able to do it all on your own. You\u2019ll need to build a stable of engaging original posts to publish on a manageable schedule, for instance: at least five per week. That\u2019ll take time, creativity, and at least one extra set of hands.<\/p>\n

But that\u2019s a story for another day. Right now, take a moment to appreciate your glorious new LinkedIn page. You deserve it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
