Are you using LinkedIn to extend your network through participating in LinkedIn Groups?

With a well thought out and executed LinkedIn strategy, LinkedIn Groups can help you extend your network across the globe and attract new investors, business partners, referrals and new clients and customers to your business.

You can join up to 50 Groups in LinkedIn – which can be challenging to manage your engagement in unless you allocate specific time and set up processes to manage your participation and engagement. I am not talking about just sending a message to a Group to come and read one of your articles – I mean really nurturing your network just as you would being a member of a Professional Association or Chamber of Commerce in the real world.

One of the things that can help you in managing your LinkedIn Groups engagement is to ensure that you manage your notifications from the Groups you are a member of so you can ensure that you are engaging in relevant conversations.

This video shares how to manage your LinkedIn Group notifications including best practice in terms of managing how you leave a Group. You can watch the video below or on YouTube.
