linkedin, undoubtedly the “go-to” social media platform for prospects to check out cpas, is rolling out a messaging feature to allow real-time chat conversations. and it’s about time.

until now, linkedin supported only email-like communication. but with messaging, you can actually have a conversation.

but now, with “messaging,” linkedin makes it possible for cpas to have “conversations” with their connections. everyone knows how “chats” and “text messages” help in short-form, need-based conversations build relationships. with linkedin as the real business-connections platform, messaging on linkedin will now help cpas have conversations that build stronger relationships with their connections.
