    LinkedIn Mentions

    New Feature

    When scheduling a LinkedIn post via Buffer, you’ll be able to type “@” and search for personal profiles from your connections, just like you would on LinkedIn directly.

    Scheduling a mention is a great way to give a shoutout. It notifies the person — creating a natural loop for engagement (they’ll likely reshare, like, or comment!)
