BIGGGGG news from LinkedIn this week!
The creator economy is showing ZERO signs of slowing down, and LinkedIn is meeting that demand with the latest products we rolled out:
✨ In-Stream Ads - A new way for brands to scale video campaigns via pre-roll ads alongside relevant creator and publisher content. Plus, eligible creators get to monetize from content they’re already posting!
🤝 Creator Marketplace - After launching earlier this year, we’ve now added new search and filtering tools to make it easier for brands to find B2B creators by expertise, audience, and content.
🔷 AND MORE - From a new dashboard that helps creators manage content to pinned comments, Advice Sessions, and business cards, oh my!
So so proud of the team that brought this all together and made this event such a success for creators and media in the room 💙
And always a great time when I get to see familiar faces - Brendan Gahan, Jack Appleby, Brandon Smithwrick 🧠, Dara Denney, Mariana Antaya, Vin Matano 🐝, Hannah Wilson & so many others
