Schedule A LinkedIn Poll

Create and publish polls to both LinkedIn Pages and Personal Profiles.

With LinkedIn Polls, you can gauge opinions, gather feedback, and nurture engagement within your professional network.

Note: If a media or link is added to a LinkedIn post, a poll cannot be created.

Prerequisites

To schedule a LinkedIn Poll, you must first connect your LinkedIn Page or Personal Profile to Statusbrew. Only connected profiles will appear in the Compose window for poll creation and scheduling.
