Do not launch a LinkedIn newsletter solely as a promotional vehicle for a one-time event. LinkedIn considers this a misuse of its community tools and will intervene. A marketer who tried this tactic for a conference registration was contacted by LinkedIn within 45 minutes and forced to retract it. Newsletters must offer ongoing value.

Unlike standard posts that are subject to algorithmic reach, a LinkedIn newsletter sends an email directly to every subscriber's inbox. This provides a powerful, free distribution channel with nearly 100% deliverability, allowing marketers to guarantee their content is seen by their most engaged followers on the platform.

When launching a LinkedIn newsletter, the platform notifies all your followers. The best tactic is to wait for this initial wave of subscribers to join *before* sending your first issue. Publishing too quickly means most of your new audience will miss the inaugural email, wasting the launch's momentum.

Demystify LinkedIn by treating it as a physical conference. Your profile is your professional attire, your content is your keynote speech, and commenting on others' posts is networking during the coffee break. This makes platform functions intuitive and purpose-driven.

Unlike typical B2B marketing which targets corporate domains, LinkedIn newsletters are delivered to the primary email address on a user's profile. This is often a long-held personal email, providing marketers a rare opportunity to access a highly-guarded inbox that is difficult to reach through other channels.

Your LinkedIn profile should not be a resume listing your accomplishments. Instead, frame it as a mini-landing page that speaks directly to your ideal customer's pain points and showcases how you provide value and tangible results for them.

When you create a LinkedIn newsletter, the platform sends a one-time notification to all your followers, inviting them to subscribe. This unique feature bypasses the standard algorithm, offering a direct, powerful way to convert your existing audience into a dedicated subscriber list with high initial uptake (around 15-20%).

Before engaging with any salesperson, customers will inevitably turn to the internet to research them. Your LinkedIn profile often serves as the first and most critical touchpoint, acting as a modern 'Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval' that validates your professional credibility.

LinkedIn suppresses posts with external links. To drive traffic, create a text-only post and direct readers to your profile's 'Featured' section. There, you can place a clickable, visual link to your webinar, website, or product without penalty.
