How to monetize your LinkedIn
- List it. Upload a photo of your LinkedIn, mark each spot and pick how you bill: per week, month, event or post. We set the price from reach, market and demand.
- Get requests. Brands find it in Browse and message you. Accept or decline.
- Get paid. The brand pays when you accept. You are paid after you post proof that the logo is up.
- Or run an auction. Share a link and let brands bid. Start a LinkedIn auction.
Get paid to put ads on your LinkedIn
Share the post link and dated screenshots of your Featured section or headline. Add the post analytics screen after a few days.
Tips
- Clear sponsor deals with your employer first. Many companies have rules about outside paid work on LinkedIn.
- Say who reads you: job titles and industries. That is what a B2B sponsor is paying for.
- Mark sponsored posts clearly, with #ad or 'sponsored by' in the first lines. LinkedIn's professional community policies and the FTC both expect honest disclosure.
Questions
Can I sell ads on LinkedIn if I am employed?
Often yes, but check your contract and company social media policy. Avoid sponsors that compete with your employer.
Does LinkedIn pay creators?
LinkedIn has limited creator programs. Most people earn there through clients and jobs, which is why direct sponsors are worth a try.
What sells best on LinkedIn?
Tools and services your readers would use at work. A product that fits your posts reads like a tip, not an ad.
How do brands find my LinkedIn?
List it once. Brands browse spots by type, city and price and message you through SponsorMySpot. Your email stays private.
Who sets the price?
Our pricing engine, like a ride app. It prices each spot from what it is, how many people see it and the market you are in, and the price rises when brands are asking for that kind of spot near you. Owners pick how they bill: per week, month, event or post.
When do I get paid?
The brand pays when you accept their request. You are paid after you post proof that the logo is up. Payouts go to your bank through Stripe. The fee is 8 percent.
Can brands bid against each other instead?
Yes. Run an auction: each spot opens at your start price and any brand can take it by paying double. Cards are held, not charged, until bidding closes.
