New LinkedIn Tool – How to Create and Effectively Use a LinkedIn Poll
A few weeks ago, I tried my very first LinkedIn poll and the engagement was through the roof. I had heard these types of posts did very well because people are inclined to engage with posts where you ask for their opinions.
LinkedIn polls help to initiate conversations, engage with your connections, serve as the basis of an article, help you come up with a future webinar or article topic, and keep you top of mind with your network.

People can write another answer in the comments so it also fosters discussion. I’ll publish the results of the poll I did soon, but in the meantime, let’s delve into how to create a LinkedIn poll.
