Linkedin as B to B content publisher


While Linkedin’s main business is selling its database to recruiters, companies are starting to use it as a platform to publish marketing content.  Levi’s and other companies are creating content-marketing strategies specifically for Linkedin.  Kelly McGinnis senior VP and chief communications officer of Levi’s told AdAge.com that Linkedin “gives us a platform to express company perspectives in our own voice without a lot of effort. It's low effort, high return in our mind.”  This is an interesting way for corporations and influencers to disseminate business information to others in similiar industries and potential employees.
