Using LinkedIn to Boost your Business

Please note: this event is run by the Small Business Development Corporation for small business owners in Western Australia only.

LinkedIn is a powerful way to promote and build your individual brand, profile your expertise and expand personal and industry connections. As the world’s largest professional online network with more than 630 million members and 30 million companies, LinkedIn provides a professional platform to network and collaborate, promote your business, and stay informed of current trends and industry developments.

Used correctly, LinkedIn can significantly enhance and facilitate opportunities for personal and business growth. But knowing how to best use the features of LinkedIn can be challenging. This workshop will assist you to learn how to best engage with this business platform.

This topic covers:

• The importance of LinkedIn
• How to engage effectively
• Creating posts that strengthen your business brand
• Creating a strong LinkedIn profile – customisation strategies
• Using hashtags and tagging
• Knowledge of LinkedIn’s algorithms – keep your post in your contacts’ feed for longer
  

This is an entry-level workshop for people who are new to LinkedIn and want to use it effectively to achieve their business objectives.

The facilitator of this topic, ECU's Executive Education Team at the School of Business and Law is dedicated to providing impactful workshops tailored to help small businesses in Western Australia thrive through sustainable growth. Their workshop content has been developed in consultation with industry experts and university resources to equip you with the skills to succeed.
