LinkedIn Best Practices

  • Engage before outreach: Like/comment on their content first
  • No pitch in connection requests: Build relationship first
  • Keep messages short: LinkedIn isn't email
  • Use voice notes: Higher response rates, more personal
  • Be patient: LinkedIn is for long-term relationship building
