Social Media & LInkedIn: Tip 6

Company Pages
During my seminars I am often asked how company pages are created on LinkedIn. Follow these easy steps to establish your business presence on this platform.

 Add a Company Page
To add a company page, click on "Companies" tab. In upper right of that page, click on "Add a company" (Picture 1). Enter the company name and an email address that is associated with the company. (Picture 2)

Requirements to Add or Edit a LinkedIn Company Page
In order to manage the company page, you must comply with the following guidelines:
  1. You must be currently employed at the company.
  2. Your profile includes the position in the company.
  3. At least one of the verified email accounts in your profile includes one using the domain name of the company.
  4. The company's email accounts are unique to the company name. For example, email accounts that end with @yahoo.com, @gmail.com, etc. are not unique to the company name.
