LinkedIn launches a tool to strengthen professional relationships in person, that is, “face to face.” Now networking is possible with LinkedIn Events!
Surely you already know LinkedIn and have a profile on this social network, if not, what are you waiting for? It is the most important professional network in the world, with 645 million active users and is present in 200 countries.
Its growth is imminent, as during the last quarter of 2019, LinkedIn presented an increase of 22% in initiated sessions and 25% in its income compared to 2018. An opportunity that professionals, social media experts, and the business world should not miss!
LinkedIn was founded in 2002 and belongs to Microsoft. Today, it is a fundamental network in the workplace. “This platform is oriented to professional and commercial relationships, so on LinkedIn you will find companies and professionals looking to promote themselves, find people, network, and expand their business” (Metricool).
Among the advantages we have when using this social network – either as a personal profile or as a company – are: improving your brand, gaining visibility, getting contacts, attracting traffic, and, of course, networking. The latter is an essential element in the business world and the business sector.
Now networking will have a great opportunity with the new tool, LinkedIn Events, which gives us the opportunity to create, share, and discover professional events.
“With the LinkedIn Events feature, members have an easy way to create and join professional events that interest them. This feature fosters authentic, face-to-face relationships, helping active and professional communities grow. LinkedIn members can use it to connect online with other members, so they can meet in person in a professional setting,” LinkedIn.
Why is this novelty important? According to data from the social network itself, “face-to-face” meetings are the ones that improve the chances of accepting a profile on LinkedIn, that is, from 20% to 80%. It is time to connect offline and strengthen professional relationships in person.
The main objective is to build precisely these relationships of interest, as well as a sense of belonging to a community that can be found in an environment of trust and in the real world, beyond the virtual one.
The user will be able to create and join events, as well as invite others, through the use of “invitation filters.” The events can be private, there are also event update notifications, search filters; but one of the most relevant issues will be that we will have the possibility of making contact with those people who attended the event through the social network.
With LinkedIn Events, not only do we have greater possibilities of meeting companies, businesses, and professionals on the social network, but it is also possible to have physical contact, through a professional meeting anywhere in the world. Don’t be left behind and expand your work and professional outlook!
Great networking opportunity with LinkedIn Events!
