Onboarding Options
LiGo offers two onboarding paths depending on your preferences. Without us knowing you, and your background - we can't really create LinkedIn content for you. So this part is to give our AI context about it, so the LinkedIn strategy, LinkedIn posts and LinkedIn comments LiGo generates for you are unique to your background, expertise and goals.
- Automated Onboarding Setup: The quickest way to get started by letting LiGo analyze your LinkedIn profile. If you are already posting for a while now on LinkedIn and your profile is optimized, go with this option. Because the context + your writing style would be easy to pick for LiGo.
- Manual Onboarding Setup: Full control over your theme creation process. If you are not active on LinkedIn, haven't added all your info to your LinkedIn profile and haven't posted much, go with this option.
Note: If you choose automated onboarding, you will be asked to provide your LinkedIn username. This doesn't "connect" your LinkedIn profile to LiGo. It simply allows us to run a detailed search on you to get publicly available LinkedIn data like your bio, past experiences, linkedin posts, etc.
