LinkedIn is a popular professional social network where you can show up as an industry thought leader and connect with others in related roles and fields. Company LinkedIn pages are a great place to share updates, build community around your business, and recruit new team members. Denim Social is your partner in showing up on LinkedIn.
Here's our quick links to the sections in this article:
Connecting your Personal LinkedIn Page
In Denim Social, click on Social Networks and then Accounts. On the Social Network Accounts page, click the button "Add Social Account" at the top right hand corner. Click LinkedIn from the drop down menu.
FYI - if this is the first Social Network you are adding in Denim Social, the Social Network Accounts page will appear blank as pictured below.
You will be taken to the LinkedIn login page. Enter the credentials for your LinkedIn page you wish to add. Once you log in, your LinkedIn page should be listed on your Social Network Accounts page.
Entering your log in information grants permission for Denim Social to connect to that LinkedIn. Those credentials will remain private to you. Denim Social uses an access token system to connect and publish posts to your LinkedIn page.
Admins - Connecting your Company's LinkedIn Page
In order to connect your company LinkedIn page, you must first connect the personal LinkedIn account which owns/manages the LinkedIn Company page you wish to add. This could be an employee's personal page, or a personal page set up specifically to manage the bank page. Follow the instructions above to connect that LinkedIn account.
Once your LinkedIn account is connected, your Company's LinkedIn page will be listed under your LinkedIn account. You can view this page by clicking the drop down arrow on the right hand side of the LinkedIn account, or you can click on the LinkedIn account name to navigate to the Account Details page.
On the left hand side, you can toggle the allow/deny option for Denim Social to publish posts to your personal LinkedIn account.
On the right hand side, you can click the name of the Company page to view the LinkedIn Company Details page. You can also allow/deny Denim Social to publish to this page, share, remove, or view details with the Actions buttons.
If you manage more than one company LinkedIn page, you can use the "More actions" button at the top right corner to Re-sync, refresh access, and delete the selected Company pages.
