LinkedIn Question? (4 posts)

Topic tags: linkedin
  • So I’m a little new to SM. My boss, however, has very strict guidelines to how she wants things done. I’m to post as her, at all times. Which doesn’t make  much sense to me since she replies to my posts on FB. But anyway. My name isn’t to be put on anything, so how in the heck do I make a LinkedIn business account? I attempted to make a regular account but it asks what is your name, position, etc. I’m a little confused.

  • @qactyler — maybe she wants you to set up her linkedin …?  – do you have your own linkedin already?  – you might want to ask your boss if she wants you to set up a company page on LinkedIn — this is something you can do after creating a Personal profile. 

  • Will the company page be linked in any way to the personal page? On FB you have to have a personal page, but it’s not affiliated with the business page to the public. If this is the case than I can use mine. If not then I will need to talk with her further about what she would like to do.

  • @qactyler You can have multiple “administrators” on the business page. Multiple members of our marketing department are able to edit the business page and none of us have a denotation on the page or our profiles that indicates we are admins on the business page. I would recommend that you make both yourself and your boss an admin and explain to her how to access and edit as well as find out the extent of content she wishes for you to post.
