People trust a person they know more than a company page, and on LinkedIn especially, personal profiles usually reach further than brand pages. Employee advocacy turns that into a programme: colleagues and founders who want to take part get a short kit for each piece of news, write their own post from it, disclose that they work there, and post when it suits them. The method keeps it voluntary, varied and honest, because identical posts pushed out at the same minute look like coordinated manipulation to platforms and like a memo to readers.
When to use
- "Get the team to share", a launch or hiring push that needs more reach, founders who should post more often.
- Leadership wants sharing to be mandatory and needs a better option.
- Not for: a founder's own long-term positioning (use
cmo-linkedin-strategy), writing one LinkedIn post (usecmo-linkedin-posts), paid ambassadors, creators or affiliates (usecmo-influencer), the company page's queue (usecmo-linkedin).
