How does this automation work?
Bardeen's workflow for LinkedIn allows you to personalize connection requests by extracting information from profiles and crafting a custom message. This can significantly increase your network's growth by making each interaction feel personal and relevant. It's an essential tool for professionals looking to expand their LinkedIn network efficiently and with a personal touch.
Here's how this workflow helps you connect with LinkedIn users:
- Step 1: Scrape LinkedIn Profile - Bardeen uses its powerful Scraper to collect data from a LinkedIn profile URL that you provide. This data is scraped in the background, ensuring a smooth workflow without interrupting your tasks.
- Step 2: Extract Name Information - The scraped data includes the LinkedIn user's name, which is then split into individual components to help personalize the message.
- Step 3: Select First Name - From the split name components, Bardeen selects the first name to use in the custom connection message.
- Step 4: Create Custom Message - A personalized message is composed by merging the first name with a preset greeting, ready to be displayed and used in your connection request.
