Wanna be a LinkedIn Lawyer? There's An App for That
Lawyers should love LinkedIn for its ability to help them expand their network of potential referrals and showcase their expertise. Use these apps to help you generate more leads and showcase your expertise:
JDSupra’s Legal Updates app allows you to upload your blog posts, articles, newsletters and other writings and makes them searchable on LinkedIn – a great way to raise your profile among potential clients. Its Custom Distribution feature also allows you to deliver your insight to those beyond your own network.
Martindale-Hubbard’s Lawyer Ratings app displays your Martindale-Hubbard rating on your profile and lets your clients provide testimonials with one click.
You can display your blog posts on your LinkedIn page with this WordPress app to drive more people to your website and promote your profile.
Do you have some videos? The SlideShare.net app allows you to add a video that plays automatically each time someone visits your LinkedIn page.
If you have written a book, you can use The Reading List by Amazon app to help promote your tome and raise your visibility.
Sync your Twitter account with LinkedIn, which helps you stay top-of-mind on LinkedIn even if you’re not there very often.
Use the LinkedIn Events app to feature and promote any events you are hosting or where you will be speaking.
LinkedIn is one of the most dynamic online tools to expand your referral network. However, just like getting referrals the old-fashioned way, you need to connect and engage. These apps help you do a better job at both.
