Is employee advocacy just an engagement pod with a company logo? In this episode, Michelle J Raymond breaks down a growing debate on LinkedIn: when teams coordinate engagement through tools like Slack, is that smart marketing or artificial amplification?

If you’re a B2B marketer, business leader or social media manager trying to build a LinkedIn strategy that actually drives results, this episode will help you understand where to draw the line.
