1Click on the My Network button on the top bar.
2If you don’t have any connections yet, click on the Connections option on the left side.
3
Click the Connect button beneath each person to send them a connection request.
This will sometimes refresh automatically, but if it does not, you may have to refresh it manually. The next steps show you how
4
Visit any other section of Linkedin. It’s probably easiest to just click one of the other top buttons.
5
Go back to the My Network section.
Doing this forces Linkedin to generate a new list of people for you to reach out to!
6
Repeat steps 1-5 to connect with boatloads of people! Linkedin may eventually tell you that you’ve reached a limit for your connections. If it does that, just come back tomorrow and do it all over again.
Here’s a Tip:
Think of connecting with 500+ people on LinkedIn like speed dating career connections! Put yourself out there. You’ll find people who will want to connect with you and those people are the gateway to your new job!
Don’t…
… focus too much on who you’re connecting with but instead getting 500+ connections. You want to connect with as many people as you can to reach the 500+ magical number!
… waste time on people who don’t connect back with you. It doesn’t mean they don’t love you. They may not take LinkedIn as seriously as you do. Maybe they made a mistake and accidentally skipped over you.
… take it personal if someone doesn’t accept your contact request. By not reconnecting with you, it becomes their loss and not yours. Prove them wrong by taking over a Fortune 500 company. Learn how in our next show!*
* Taking over a Fortune 500 company will not be covered in our next show. Haha, tricked you!
