10x Your Engagement w/ Linkedin Carousel

LinkedIn carousel posts can be a powerful tool for boosting engagement on the platform. When done correctly, they can attract up to 10 times more engagement than regular posts.

In this post, I'll show you how to create effective LinkedIn carousels that not only technically work but also engage your audience and potentially turn them into customers.

You can use carousels to:

• Tell a story
• Craft listicles
• Offer tips and hacks
• Introduce your team
• Share business lessons
• Share quotes and sayings
• Create step-by-step guides
• Share interesting statistics
• Highlight projects or products
• Provide downloadable cheat sheets

Share educational or inspirational content that immediately offers value to the viewer. Your audience are more likely to engage with carousels that provide something valuable upfront.

Repurpose Your Content

If you have existing content like blog articles, podcasts, videos, or presentations, repurpose them into carousels.

It can save time and reach a broader audience.

Creating a Carousel

Now, let's dive into the creation process:

1. Design with Canva (or Your Preferred Tool)

• Start with a square canvas (1080x1080 px) for high-quality visuals.
• Focus on the first “Title” slide; it's crucial. Use bright colors, engaging graphics, and concise text.
• Add an arrow to guide users to swipe through.
• Include your LinkedIn profile picture or company logo to protect your content.

2. Middle Slides

• Aim for 5 to 8 slides to provide enough content without overwhelming.
• Each slide should have a number, main idea, and a brief explanation.
• Use graphics that match the content.

3. The Final Slide

• Mention a benefit for the viewer.
• Instruct users on what action to take next.
• Include a larger photo of yourself or your company logo for identity.
