Success Tip #4…..Building an Excel CSV File…
Everyone you run across on linkedin that you are not connected too, but they provide an email address in the profile. Listing themselves as toplinked, opennetworker, grouplinked, or LION. These are people who will accept your invite. Simply take the email address, copy and paste into an excel spreadsheet and “save as” a CSV file. You then can upload an entire list into linked in, by choosing to “import” your list. You can build a solid list through these groups. Toplinked, Grouplinked, Opennetworker.

You can also look through the groups and get specific. If they do not show 1st degree then they are not connected to you. So ad them to your list. Take 15 min a day for entire week to build a nice list then invite them all. Do this every week and you will build a solid group of connections. What I like best is the fact that you can search the specific industries you want to target by looking through the groups.

Good luck connecting

P.S. of course you are not supposed to invite someone you do not know. However if they list themselves as one of the members of the above referenced groups then they are a member of the same groups you are a member to. This makes them a peer, so invite them all you want.

Join Groups on Linkedin and invite open networkers who are 2 degrees away from you or more.
Open networker= people who readily provide their email address openly within their profile. These people will accept all invitations. It is best to invite those who list LION, Toplinked, or say open networker in their profile.

Added Tip:  Be target specific in the groups you join!  Think about which markets you are going after.
