How Do I Put a Booking Link in My LinkedIn Profile?

Adding a booking link to your LinkedIn profile could be as simple as copying and pasting—seriously! 

Whether you're using LinkedIn's free plan or one of their premium options like Sales Navigator, you can give potential clients an easy way to schedule time with you. For small businesses and solopreneurs, this can be a game-changer—because every click matters when it comes to landing new clients. 

Let’s dive into the steps and show you exactly how to put your booking link front and center on LinkedIn.

How to add your booking link on LinkedIn

There are a few different ways to add your booking link, depending on which LinkedIn plan you're using. Whether you're working with the free version or enjoying all the perks of Sales Navigator, here’s how to do it:

Adding a booking link in the free version

With 61% of LinkedIn users on the free plan, you’re in great company! Even though the free version doesn’t have a dedicated “Book Now” button, you can still get creative and make sure your booking link stands out to potential clients. 

Here are a few simple ways to keep your booking link front and center:

2. LinkedIn posts: Regularly share your booking link in posts! Whether you’re announcing a new service or reminding your network that you’re available for meetings, adding your link to a post with a clear call-to-action gives potential leads an immediate next step to take while their interest is highest. It's a simple way to turn curiosity into real engagement.

3. Experience section—because nothing says "open for business" like a scheduling link in the description of your current role. The more visibility you give your booking link, the better the chances someone will click and schedule time with you!

Even with the free version, you can give clients plenty of ways to book with you. The easier it is for someone to schedule time, the faster you can turn connections into customers.

Adding a booking link to LinkedIn Premium

While Premium doesn’t offer the custom footer option like Sales Navigator, you can still add your link in key areas to make scheduling seamless:

• Go to your profile and click the “Edit” button next to your Contact Info.
• In the “Website” section, paste your YouCanBookMe link.
• Label the link something clear and engaging, like “Schedule a Meeting” or “Book Time with Me.”
• Save your changes, and now your booking link is just a click away for anyone visiting your profile.

2. Featured Section: Use LinkedIn’s Featured Section to add a post or content that directly promotes your booking link. Here’s how:

• Navigate to your profile and scroll down to the Featured section (if you don’t have one, you can easily add it by clicking “Add Section”).
• Include whatever you'd like, from samples of your best work to your unique booking link. Don't forget to add a compelling headline like "Ready to chat? Book a meeting with me today!"

These strategies help make your booking link more accessible, making it easy for your prospects to schedule time with you in just a few clicks. 

For small business owners who depend on quick connections, having your link visible is critical!

• Sign in to Sales Navigator.
• Click Messaging at the top right, then select Sales Navigator Inbox from the dropdown.
• Click New message in the messaging window of your Inbox.
  Note: You can also compose a message by clicking the Message button on a lead’s profile page.
• At the bottom of the message box, click the ✎ Edit icon next to your name.
  Note: The edit option only appears when you’re composing an InMail or a message to a second or third-degree connection.
• Compose or edit your signature in the Edit signature box that appears, and click Save.

Now, every time you send a message through Sales Navigator, your booking link will automatically appear in your signature!

Why you should add your booking link to LinkedIn

Why go through the trouble of adding your booking link to LinkedIn? Here’s why:

Make it easy for clients: When booking is as simple as clicking a link, you cut out the endless back-and-forth emails trying to find a time that works. 

The faster someone can see your availability and book with you, the more likely they are to lock in a time—especially in a world where speed matters. That’s what we call speed to lead—the quicker a client can book, the less chance they’ll get distracted by your competition.

Appear professional and ready to connect: Having a clear, visible booking link on LinkedIn shows you’re organized, accessible, and ready to meet. 

Whether you’re offering consultations, product demos, or partnerships, clients want to see that you’re open for business—and a booking link does just that. 

Plus, nothing says “I’ve got my act together” more than a smooth, hassle-free booking process.

Drive more leads effortlessly: The easier you make it for people to connect with you, the more leads you’ll convert. Small business owners know that every lead matters, and YouCanBookMe’s small business scheduling software makes this process effortless. 

If people can book with you in one click, they’re far more likely to follow through, turning casual browsers into committed customers. 

From one small business to another
