Guidelines for Tagging People and Companies on LinkedIn
Mention another LinkedIn member profile by adding@vanity_name or @[Person Full Name] in the post text.
@vanity_nameis the vanity name of the member profile. For example, in the member’s profile URLhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/vanity_name/, the vanity name isvanity_name.@[John Smith]is the person’s full name. For example, if the person’s full name isJohn Smith, the mention would be@[John Smith].
So, in this case, to mention Root Inc., the user should use @rootinsurance.
Example -
“Finding a Better Way with Mobile Telematics @[Alex Timm], Co-Founder & CEO, @rootinsurance, shares the inspiration behind Root to revolutionize the insurance industry by leveraging mobile telematics…”
Caveats to keep in mind -
- You must have a LinkedIn company page connected to your Quso account to mention member profiles. If you connect your own personal LinkedIn account, you will not be able to mention other people’s profiles.
- LinkedIn only allows mentioning people who follow your organization/company page.
