LinkedIn is a great resource for connecting with influencers and potential backers. Still, a lot of people don’t have a profile or don’t understand how it can figure into their social media promotion strategy. Whether it is interest-centric groups, surveys, InMails, introductions, or lead generation, LinkedIn is an invaluable tool for crowdfunding and business success.

I’ve included a few tips below to demonstrate how you can use LinkedIn to garner support for your idea, project, or business. You can also check out some crowdfunding LinkedIn groups here that might be useful for connecting with influencers.

Before executing on any of these tips, be sure that your LinkedIn profile has a current professional photograph, a descriptive work history (including skills and education), and that you have a made a few connections from your gmail, yahoo, or hotmail, or by using the “people you may know” tool.

These above steps serve to confirm your identity or legitimacy and make it more likely that people will repsond to your messages or engage in a discussion you create.

great!
Thanks
recently I decided to try linkedin and all these tips will be useful!!!

I wish someone else could send me his opinion

Thank you very much for the detailed advice. This is a really cool idea. I would not even have guessed about it. Previously, Linkedin could only be used to find a job, but now you can find investors, partners and even friends on this platform. Linkedin has become for many a more important social network than Facebook or Instagram, and this is very cool! I last used linked two years ago and during that period I found a great job and it was a very cool experience. I have never worked as a freelancer and my boss said that I got this job only because of great references. He did not know what these recommendations were written I use linkedin recommendation examples myself. I hope he doesn't read this post!
