Since May 14, we have seen the first rollout of Stories on LinkedIn in the Netherlands. And the reactions are varied, from love to hate. I belong to the club of love, but I am also really skeptical and fear a loss of quality for the platform. Because creating valuable and professional content is not that easy. I will help you on your way in this article and we will also look at what we can learn from other socials.
However, I would like to elaborate on the pros and cons of LinkedIn Stories first . I am not sure which one to star fax lists with, but I will choose the bad news first. I experienced the disadvantages right away in the first week of LinkedIn Stories. I saw cringe-inducing videos with backlight , no subtitles and out of the blue advertising. I have also already spotted the first TikTok videos. Or how about photos of meals, the sunset and an outing with the children?
Great for Instagram, but let's use LinkedIn Stories for what this business platform is meant for. Networking, sharing knowledge and expertise, helping & inspiring each other and growing your business. I applaud the fact that this can now be done in a more accessible way with Stories. How we use best practices of other social media.
