LinkedIn\u2019s wants to celebrate people who actively use its platform. That\u2019s why it added \u2018creator mode\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Creator mode does a few things. For one, it announces to LinkedIn that you are an active user of its application, interested in creating content. It also allows you to specify your interest in your area of accounting directly on your profile, using tags, explained below. Finally, it allows people to follow you, so even if you don\u2019t accept connection requests you will boost the amount of people who are aware of your profile and interested in your activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How to turn on LinkedIn creator mode:<\/mark><\/h3>\n\n\n\nYou can turn on creator mode by heading to your profile on LinkedIn, and then scrolling down to \u2018resources\u2019. Then, click on creator mode to turn it on. Once you have done this, a green \u2018on\u2019 icon should appear next to creator mode on your profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/jasperrose.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-1.png\")
<\/a>Active LinkedIn Creator Mode<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nAdding accounting tags to LinkedIn creator mode:<\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\nWhen optimising your LinkedIn profile for accounting, once you have turned on creator mode, you can add different \u2018tags\u2019 to the top of your profile. These tags clarify what you do to viewers of your profile, encourage people to follow you, and also boost your presence on the LinkedIn algorithm. This is because it also tells LinkedIn more about what you do and what you intend to post about, in this case, accounting. This in turn optimises your profile as it helps LinkedIn to put your content in front of the most relevant people possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ultimately, the more information you give LinkedIn, the more it will boost your profile to the most accurate audience that best serves your networking goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How to add hashtags to LinkedIn Creator Mod<\/mark>e:<\/mark><\/code><\/h3>\n\n\n\nTo add your tags, once again head to the resources tab on your profile and click on creator mode. Here, there is a section titled \u2018profile topics\u2019 where you can add tags to your profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To do this, click on the \u2018add topics\u2019 bubble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/jasperrose.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Picture2.png\")
<\/a>Adding profile topics to LinkedIn Creator Mode<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nYou can then start typing words that describe your field, or topics that you would like to post about or engage with. In the case of accounting, you could use #AccountingServices, #Accounting, or #Finance. Generally, the hashtags with the highest following are the ones that appear first on the dropdown once you start typing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/jasperrose.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Picture3.png\")
<\/a>Choosing your creator mode tags<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nThere is a maximum of 5 tags that you can use on your profile, if you use more than one tag, try to make sure that they are similar to each other, so that LinkedIn\u2019s algorithm (or anyone viewing your profile), is not confused about what you do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once you have added the relevant hashtags to your profile, if you create any posts on LinkedIn, it is a good idea to use the same hashtags in your posts to increase their reach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Make your tagline stand out:<\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\nYour tagline is one of the first things someone who encounters your profile will see. When you comment on a post, or appear in a search, only the first part of your tagline will appear until someone clicks on your profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To optimise your accountancy profile for networking on LinkedIn, avoid simply listing your profession. For example, simply writing \u2018Financial Controller\u2019 or \u2018CFO\u2019. Instead, to encourage people to engage with you, start off your tagline by listing your specialism, or what connecting with you could offer. Then list your job title, then company. This way, your profile will be more enticing to the network that you\u2019re interested in connecting with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The reason for this is also that when you comment on a post on LinkedIn, or you appear in a search, only the first part of your tagline appears. Therefore, by optimising the first part of your tagline, you will be more appealing at a glance to your intended network before they have even clicked on your profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re comfortable with sharing this, you will be activating a passive, recurring reminder that you exist to your network. Once a year, your connections will be sent a notification alerting them that it\u2019s your birthday. If you made a connection that year that might have forgotten who you are, this notification will be a positive reminder. Plus, you might get some extra birthday wishes, which is never a bad thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
