Here once more project idea that I discuss with about Linkedin Events, crazy idea. I would like to present this idea that I have had the LinkedIn Networking, developed for people who are interested in learning new things and networking through events, workshops and courses. LinkedIn Networking will provide the user with the ability to gain efficient access to these events within Linkedin.

Today, LinkedIn does not have an exclusive space for publishing and disseminating events, in this way they simply post information about timeline opportunity, like normal post.

Without any kind of differentiation, it is difficult for the public to quickly understand the communication proposal. The application will collaborate with companies and institutions with the aim of promoting your event, focused on the basis of followers of your corporate profile. Greater ease for users and for companies within the education category.

LinkedIn Golden Circle with digital innovation, very important metodology for create a new product or service, the best summary.

Goal

Many companies that organize events, workshops and courses are looking for new entrants and students on LinkedIn.

Users are also looking for new opportunities to stay current in knowledge and skills, even with a lot of trouble finding.

This means that people write in their profiles their current skills and those they need to improve, this way we can identify and offer the participation of events that make sense to the user.

“My goal is to create a service for the dissemination of educational events accessible to users, while also offering an effective tool for companies interested in publicizing their events.”

Research Methods

SEARCH

I’ve prepared a survey using Survey Monkey. And I shared this research with a community-related event, executives and marketers.

My goal was to identify the issues that users faced when seeking training, courses, and workshops.

Knowing the problems faced by users is really important in determining the direction of the project. In addition to the users surveyed, I have experience of having difficulty finding events with a professional profile that I exercise.

Persona

In the researches developed, I identified two profiles of users with different consumption needs of events, workshops and courses. Users who are seeking to improve their skills and knowledge. Second behavior is the users who have not identified opportunities to improve their skills.

Jobs To Be Done

We know that LinkedIn is the largest social networking platform focused on jobs, networking, learning and professional content. It helps millions of professionals every day around the world to improve their career and to develop skills and knowledge, in addition to clearing up a new job.

On the platform there is a large number of information related to the profile of skills, courses and training of the user, collaborating with the intelligence of data to offer the appropriate event for him, be it by description, geolocation, interest and searches.

This is an opportunity that goes beyond the user’s vision, is a business focused on the value proposition of Linkedin Navigator, Elevate, Advertising and Education, offering the best experience for the B2B public.

Strategy

The main goal of LinkedIn Networking, in addition to adding a new user experience that seeks to improve its skills, the service will add value to other LinkedIn B2B platforms, thus creating an ecosystem focused on events.

There will be no limitations on the event query, however there will be some ads related to the mode of service and interest of the user.

The presentation of events will have a dedicated space in the user’s home, indicating the event that best suits their interest.

Design LinkedIn Networking Events

A platform that will explore a $67 billion global marketplace, and provide a new experience for users LinkedIn, Sales Navigator, Advertising, Elevate and Education.
