It's the number one problem, especially as the platform is growing super, super fast.

It means that they...

want to stop people approaching each other as at least people you do not know.

So therefore, I think it becomes way more important to only outreach people you know, or at least that's what LinkedIn is aiming for.

And of course, it's not possible.

We have a lot of workarounds.

We can bypass these limits, but that's not what we're gonna talk about today.

I especially want to focus on sniper targeting.

So only tactics on how you can find people with out-of-the-box strategies on LinkedIn to build your audience.

LinkedIn groups.

I just talked about it.

Who's leveraging LinkedIn groups?

Have some people here who are already in LinkedIn groups or use it?

Did you know, for example, that if you're apart from a LinkedIn group for more than four days, you can message these people without making a connection request?

So LinkedIn limited amount of connection requests up to 100 a week, which is sort of 20 a day.

And if you're part of a group, you can message these people without making connection requests.

And it's quite an easy conversation starter.

If you go to your basic search bar on LinkedIn, you search by hashtag on a specific topic, and you select the tag groups, it will pop up all the relevant groups related to that specific keyword.

And you can make quite an easy introduction.

If you're not using it as a connection request, you can send a message, as I just mentioned.
