LinkedIn page management

LinkedIn Page admin roles

Giving the right role to each person

LinkedIn says Pages offer Page admin and paid media admin roles to allow tiered levels of management. Keep the super admin role with at least two trusted people inside the company, so the Page can never be locked out if one person leaves. Someone who writes and schedules posts, including an outside provider, needs content admin, not super admin. Someone who only reports on results needs analyst. Review the list of admins every few months and remove people who no longer need access.

A complete Page

What to post

LinkedIn audiences may value useful, specific content over promotion. Posts that work for business Pages include practical insights from your work, explanations of common problems your clients face, project stories told with permission, team news, hiring and events. Write in plain language and get to the point quickly. One clear idea per post is easier to read than a long list of announcements. A regular rhythm, such as two or three posts a week, is easier to sustain than bursts.

Example: an engineering consultancy

Involving employees

People may engage more with individuals than with company Pages. Employees who share Page posts with a sentence of their own, or post about their work, extend the Page's reach and make it more human. Make this optional and give people simple guidance: what is fine to share, what is confidential and how to mention clients only with permission.

Comments and messages

Reply to comments on Page posts, especially questions, within a day or so. Treat enquiries that arrive through LinkedIn like any other sales lead: pass them to the right person quickly and record them, so you can see later how many enquiries the Page brought in.

Using Page analytics

LinkedIn says analytics are available for all Page admin roles and lists content, followers, visitors, search appearances, competitors, employer brand and newsletter analytics. Use them to see which posts drew engagement, who follows the Page and who visits it. Combine them with what matters to the business, such as enquiries and applications, rather than chasing follower numbers alone.

A sustainable rhythm

Plan a month of topics at a time, drawn from the people who do the work. A short list of recurring themes, such as lessons from projects, answers to clients' common questions, team and hiring news and industry changes explained, keeps the Page varied without needing new ideas from scratch every week. Assign one person to own the Page, even if others contribute, so posts do not stop when everyone is busy.
