Empowering customers and employees to become brand ambassadors, Company Pages will help grow a company’s business “virally” through word-of-mouth, traditionally the most trusted and effective form of advertising.
“Company Pages take product and service recommendations to a whole new level of believability and authority, allowing members to benefit from the considered perspectives of those whose opinions they trust and relate to the most—their acquaintances and professional colleagues,” said Jeff Weiner, chief executive officer of LinkedIn.” In addition, by displaying their strongest recommendations to prospective customers and employees on LinkedIn, businesses can use Company Pages to fuel growth and trust in their brands.”
