Having a LinkedIn Company Page for your business is your first step to delivering your business related content to LinkedIn members through sponsored content. Adding a Company Page on LinkedIn will only require you to follow some simple steps.
If you’ve just created your LinkedIn account, remember that:
- Your account has to be older than one
- You have to be listed as the owner or as an employee in the company you’re creating a Company Page
- Your profile must be in good
Refer to our last chapter to get a recap of all the necessary requirements for the creation of a LinkedIn Company Page.
Once you are sure that you comply with all the requirements, just head over to your LinkedIn dashboard to get started.
Creating a Company Page on LinkedIn is quite an uncomplicated process, but before you get started, check that you have the following things ready:
- Your Website URL
- Your personal email address within the company domain. This is your corporate email address
First, you will need to add your corporate email address to your profile and confirm it, in order to use it to create the Company Page.
Go to the “account settings” tab in the right top corner of your dashboard and click on “privacy and settings”.
You will be taken to your basic account settings. When you’re there, click on “email addresses”. Now click the “add email address” button below.
Enter your corporate email address and click on “send verification”. A verification link will be sent to your corporate email address inbox, so you’ll have to check it, open the email that LinkedIn just sent you and click the link to confirm your new email address.
You will then be taken to a page telling you that you just confirmed your email address.
