Step 1
Decide if IT System Training and Support is the right industry to target
The IT System Training and Support industry
The IT System Training and Support industry focuses on providing education and technical assistance to users of IT systems. These companies play a vital role in helping individuals and organizations effectively use and troubleshoot technology. It's important to differentiate this industry from others that might involve IT but are not focused on training and support. While a software company might offer some basic user manuals, they wouldn't be considered part of this industry unless their primary service is providing comprehensive training and support services. Similarly, a company selling computer hardware wouldn't be included unless they also offer dedicated IT training and support packages.
What businesses are included
Businesses included in this industry offer services like software training courses, user onboarding programs, technical support hotlines, online help documentation, and troubleshooting guides. This includes companies that specialize in training for specific software applications, operating systems, and IT security practices.
When targeting the IT System Training and Support industry on LinkedIn, your search will automatically cover all related sub-industries. To maximize the relevance of your leads, you may want to exclude certain sub-industries that don’t align with your ideal customer profile.
