LinkedIn recently added a new feature to its platform called LinkedIn product pages. The aim of the LinkedIn product page is to help businesses generate high-quality leads and build a trusted community around their products. Over the years LinkedIn has been a valuable site for B2B marketers, and if your business is not yet on LinkedIn, you are missing out on accessing the largest global professional audience. LinkedIn will help you connect your business prospects to experts, and generate targeted leads.
