What are the advantages of running a giveaway on LinkedIn?
You might wonder why run a giveaway on this social network. Yes, I know they are not common, that it’s Instagram’s territory, and that users are not used to seeing this type of post on their LinkedIn feed.
But guess what?
It’s precisely because of that reason that you should run a giveaway here.
To make it clearer, here are the advantages of organizing a giveaway on LinkedIn:
- It is one of the most effective platforms for capturing potential clients. Think about it: what do users seek when they enter LinkedIn? Exactly, to connect with professionals, companies, or businesses relevant to their field. Therefore, if you want to generate successful and qualified connections for your brand, a giveaway will help increase your account’s visibility and reach, investing very few resources and time.
- Valuable content in giveaway format. Make everything your brand has to offer and your potential clients find it in a giveaway. Those who visit LinkedIn look for posts that provide value or opportunities. By offering products, services, or exclusive content as prizes in your giveaway, you not only attract more participants but also demonstrate the value of your offer, increasing interest and engagement from a relevant and qualified audience who could become loyal clients.
- Be where no one else is. Let your brand be the first in its sector to run a giveaway on LinkedIn. We know that no one remembers second place. If you’re first, you’ll catch the attention of those qualified leads hungry for valuable content.

- Strengthen your brand image: By running giveaways on LinkedIn, you demonstrate innovation and commitment to your audience. This strategy not only attracts new followers but also strengthens the perception of your brand as modern and approachable, setting you apart from the competition and building trust with your potential clients.
