Adding a Company Logo on LinkedIn
You can use two ways to add a company logo on LinkedIn. The first involves adding the logo when creating the company page. Alternatively, you can use LinkedIn’s embedded media to add the logo.
Method #1: Create a Company LinkedIn Page
A logo is the best way of branding your company on LinkedIn and gives visitors a sense of trust as the logo represents what the company stands for. Besides, having a logo makes it easier to link your company page, even for the employees.
Before adding any company logo, you must have a LinkedIn company page, and you can create one using the steps below.
- Click the link to create a LinkedIn company page.
- Follow the prompts given and add the needed logos, a square, and a standard logo.
- Link the company page to different profile pages. To link your personal LinkedIn account to that of the company, click Profile > Edit on your account. Locate the current experience section and under the “Company Name”, type the name of your Company page and from the list, select it to link.
Using the three steps above, you now have a company logo successfully added to your company page.
Method #2: Use Embedded Media on LinkedIn
LinkedIn allows users to upload various work samples to their LinkedIn profile. You can add different samples, including experience, summary, and experience sections.
To use this method, follow the steps below:
- Navigate to your “Experience” or “Summary” section.
