    Manychat Broke Their LinkedIn Company Page on Purpose — And It Worked

    Most LinkedIn Company Pages feel like an empty office lobby — beautifully vacuumed, nobody there. Manychat decided to break theirs. In public. On purpose. Ashley Sava, Content Marketing Manager and self-described content anarchist, took over the Manychat LinkedIn Company Page and announced it wasn't going to behave like a Company Page anymore.

In this episode, Ashley shares how she won the internal argument, why commenting matters more than publishing, and the one metric she cares about that LinkedIn analytics doesn't measure.
