The Post As A Page Feature
The Post As A Page feature, also known, as member feature and before this, users on the platform, had to get to their page, to put up a post.
This had been, rather, not been good enough and time-wasting.
When you now have content to share, or, post, you can do it, from that point, as this new feature will enable you, to avoid losing good content that you found and you do not have to, necessarily, visit your page, to do so.
According to LinkedIn, this feature, will bring about flawless user experience.
You can turn on this feature, by simply switching on a toggle, from the Homepage.
Invite To Follow Your LinkedIn Page
If you own a LinkedIn page for your business, making it grow is essential.
With the “invite to follow” feature, business page managers can invite their best-preferred connections, to follow their page.
The other user getting the invitation can, also, decline, or, accept, with the click of a button.
According to the team, this feature will allow professionals, to drive more engagement, in the business space.
