Executive LinkedIn Programs

Our fastest Top Voice badge was secured in just 8 weeks. Typical programs could take a year or longer, depending on the executive’s baseline presence, posting cadence, and audience alignment. Geography is a primary consideration for LinkedIn Top Voice because only a certain number of Top Voice badges are awarded per geography. We set milestone reviews every four weeks so progress is transparent.

We track a composite of hard and soft metrics, including:
• Audience growth (% and absolute)
• Engagement‑rate uplift (reactions, comments, shares per follower)
• Share of brand reach driven by the executive
• Inbound opportunities generated (keynote invites, media requests, board approaches)
• Message penetration within priority stakeholder segments (via Quant sentiment scanning)

Every engagement begins with a governance workshop that sets topic guardrails and disclosure protocols. Draft posts route through a lightweight approval flow (IR → Legal → Executive) in under 48 hours, and we maintain a living FAQ for Reg FD, crisis, and earnings‑quiet‑period scenarios.

Proven outcomes: Top Voice badge in 8 weeks; 3× reach and +112 pp engagement for a Fortune 100 leader.

No. All publishing, monitoring, and analytics run on standard LinkedIn plus our proprietary tool‑set. If you already license Navigator, we’ll integrate those insights, but the program’s core ROI is independent of paid LinkedIn tiers.

Yes. Each leader receives a bespoke content calendar, voice guidelines, and KPI dashboard, while back‑end governance, design resources, and analytics are pooled—reducing cost per executive up to 35 %. Cross‑executive engagement signals also boost algorithmic reach for the entire leadership bench.

We don’t just draft text—we fuse Quant analytics, platform A/B testing, and award‑winning visual design to engineer posts that travel farther. Every recommendation is benchmarked against live LinkedIn data, routed through IR & Legal for compliance, and delivered in formats (carousels, video, thought‑leadership articles) proven to outperform plain copy.

Driving influence on B2B social media involves strategically leveraging platforms to build brand authority, engage with target audiences and foster relationships that lead to measurable business outcomes. Key aspects include content creation, engagement, analytics and brand storytelling. By combining these elements with the latest trends in mind, businesses and individuals can effectively influence perceptions within their industry and actively network with relevant audiences.

LinkedIn, without a doubt. Millions of brands and professionals call this digital space home for all top-level announcements and engagement opportunities, creating a social platform uniquely differentiated from other media spaces. According to the social network’s own research, 89% of B2B marketers use LinkedIn for lead generation, and 62% confirm that it delivers twice the leads of other social channels. Independent sources confirm the same, with a visitor-to-lead conversion rate of 2.74% – almost 3 times higher than both Twitter and Facebook.

Connections and conversations. Reaching out to professional colleagues to connect and converse is a great way to expand your reach across LinkedIn audiences. LinkedIn suggests consistent, on-brand posting as the best way to reach followers, while also fostering and encouraging engagement outside of your own shared content. Further engaging with relevant posts from other users through likes and comments keeps your profile active – and helps tailor your algorithm to create a digital environment that fits your professional cadence. 

First, it is important to understand how the term ‘viral’ can mean something different to each user. If you have 1,000 LinkedIn connections and 15,000 people viewed your content – that’s viral!

There is no one secret to creating successful content. Trends evolve, audiences change and each content creator has a unique voice. Each professional has different career experiences and different audiences that cater to specific shareable moments. As a general rule, dynamic and compelling visuals paired with a personal and engaging narrative is a strong foundational recipe for ‘viral’ posts on LinkedIn.

While this may depend on industry and audience, success is recognizable across any sector of LinkedIn. Thought leaders such as Mickey Mikitani, Ann Handley and Gary Vaynerchuk have garnered consistent and notable engagement on the platform, but chances are that your favorite CEO has a strong LinkedIn presence as well.

Refining what story you are telling, along with how you are telling it, can make a huge difference in the performance of your LinkedIn posts almost immediately.

The first step in creating digital content is to determine the narrative reasoning behind a post. Is this moment important, thought-provoking or helpful to share with your audience? If not, it might be best to reconsider. Of course, something like a new role, workplace development or project announcement are obviously well-suited for LinkedIn, but more agile moments such as article features or life events can be more difficult to build a digital cadence around – but that doesn’t make them any less valuable!

Once you have narrowed down the story, it is time to figure out the best way to tell it. This is where the visual side of the platform becomes the focus. In-person events lend themselves well to on-site photos or videos that provide a first-person perspective to connect with audiences. More dynamic graphics, animations and videos are becoming increasingly popular on LinkedIn, adding a level of professionalism beyond the written word. In either case, it is essential to choose a graphic that intentionally supports the narrative of the post.
