How to Grow Your Company Page Followers with This NEW LinkedIn Feature

A great new little update - LinkedIn has now provided company page admins the ability to send company page invites to their individual connections. This means that you can send invites to your own connections in hopes that they’ll follow your company page.

Here’s what that looks like. If you go to your company page as an admin, under “Admin tools” you’ll see a new option - “Invite Connections”:

Click “Invite connections” and you’ll see a pop-up page where you can select which of your contacts you’d like to invite to follow your company page.

And there you have it. An easy way to build your company following by letting your LinkedIn contacts know about your page and inviting them to accept the invite.
