Dear Boris,
There are now over 300,000 groups on LinkedIn where professionals
are discussing, sharing news and collaborating with each other. We
sincerely appreciate your dedication to the LinkedIn group you
manage. Your efforts are essential to the continued success of
groups.
We're happy to announce that later this week we are launching a
long-requested feature for group managers: the ability to create
subgroups. Subgroups are like a break-out session at a conference.
They enable you to create more focused areas than in the main
group.
Also, by creating and inviting members into subgroups, you can
now send additional weekly Announcement emails to focused
audiences.
To create and invite other professionals into a subgroup, visit
your
groups and go to the group's "Manage" tab today. Once you've
created the subgroup, here are four easy ways to get it going
quickly:
- Set the aims for the subgroup by posting a featured discussion
in the subgroup
- Kindle the conversation by posting a news article with a brief
comment every day for the first month of the group
- Provide an ongoing focus for members' attention by adding 10
RSS feeds related to the focus of the subgroup
- Drive attention to the subgroup through your comments in the
main group and in other groups where you participate
Regards,
The LinkedIn Groups Team
