The latest episode of The Built Environment Marketing show hosted by me Ayo Abbas is taken from a LinkedIn Live event that I did last week with property writer Stacey Meadwell. LinkedIn has a brilliant range of content creation tools, but not all of them are immediately obvious or are underused as they don't really shout about the fact that they exist. Many of these features and tools can increase your range of content, boost engagement and propel your reach. They can help you stand out from the crowd and build stronger connections.
