I'll re-subscribe when this feature is available. thanks!

Francesco Di Lorenzo: oh that's annoying. I think Taplio has the function to be able to tag individuals so I do think it's possible.

But if it's not, one is better than having no option to :)

Francesco Di Lorenzo: Both. People and companies. But it is not a deal-breaker to mention only companies, at least for me. Even though I would obviously prefer to have both options (to call out the attention of the people mentioned).

Francesco Di Lorenzo: I tag individuals and companies. It’s fine to start with companies, but would be really useful to be able to tag individuals as well. It’s pretty important for driving engagement.

Francesco Di Lorenzo: Hey Francesco, I'm generally tagging both, individual first, then sometimes companies.

Francesco Di Lorenzo: I generally tag both, but I think more often companies. I tag people for "new joiner" posts for my company and hiring posts where I reference my team, and companies when celebrating new features, or when referencing my own business. I think "People" is higher ROI but one is better than none!

Francesco Di Lorenzo: In my own use, I use 95% individual mentions and 5% company mentions.

Consider algo that individual mentions get much more response and interaction than company mentions, so I prefer to mention only people to get more engagement.

Thanks for the effort!

Francesco Di Lorenzo: ok with companies. thanks!

Francesco Di Lorenzo: I usually tag both. It is not a main issu to me if we can only tag companies.

Francesco Di Lorenzo: I had mentioning companies in mind rather than individuals. That's what I need on LinkedIn when I use mentions.

Francesco Di Lorenzo: I do mention individuals and companies on a regular basis (that's actually a good practice if you want to create a post that get views!)

But I know it's painful to code, their API is a nightmare :D

Francesco Di Lorenzo: We usually mention both

Francesco Di Lorenzo: mostly mentioning individuals :/ biggest benefit is that tagging individuals usually does a lot to increase engagement (esp. bc they'll often comment/like & the post gets circulated to their following, too)

Francesco Di Lorenzo: in my case, mainly companies, but I've read a lot of the other comments and it is clear that there is the need for both. It is unfortunate that they have such limitations on their API and hope a solution could be found to accommodate everyone.

Aadit Sheth: Taplio is using the LinkedIn private API which might be dangerous for your account

Francesco Di Lorenzo: Mainly companies :)

Francesco Di Lorenzo: I usually tag individuals most of the time. But it‘s no deal breaker.

If it‘s only companies it‘s also good.

Francesco Di Lorenzo: Thanks for letting me know!

Francesco Di Lorenzo: I would be mentioning companies more than individuals.

Francesco Di Lorenzo: We are usually needing to tag employees at different speaking events and things like that, so actually make use of individual tagging more than company tagging! But both are definitely preferred.

Francesco Di Lorenzo: Tagging both but individuals much more often

Francesco Di Lorenzo: I rarely tag companies and almost always tag individuals. Tagging creator friends and connections is a must-have for me!

Francesco Di Lorenzo: i tag companies more often but I still like to tag people every now and then.

Buffer app lets you insert the link of the page/person and it creates tag for you automatically. Not sure how they do that and if it’s easier, but just FYI. :)

Francesco Di Lorenzo: Tagging individuals and companies would be preferred.

Francesco Di Lorenzo: both! Deal breaker if only companies

Francesco Di Lorenzo For me it is mostly individuals. I'm pretty sure I've used it in feedhive but it didn't work very good as well there

Pawel Dolega: we've started working on this, no ETA yet, but usually we ship new features in a matter of weeks.

Btw, do you usually find yourself mentioning people, companies or both? Would it be a deal-breaker if we only allowed mentioning companies?

Francesco Di Lorenzo: I usually mention people. Mentioning companies still better than nothing

Pawel Dolega agreed, pretty similar, but could get away with just companies for a while.
