How to create a prospect list from a LinkedIn group?

The LinkedIn Group Search feature allows you to import prospects directly from a LinkedIn group into Flowkon. Instead of creating a search using LinkedIn filters, you simply provide the LinkedIn Group URL, and Flowkon retrieves members from that group to use in campaigns.

This feature is useful when you want to target members of a specific LinkedIn community based on industry, profession, interests, or organization.

Things to know

• You need to create a prospect list using a LinkedIn account that is connected to Flowkon.

Follow the steps below to create a LinkedIn Group Search:

1. Navigate to the Prospects section in Flowkon. Click Find Prospects.

2. Choose Linkedin Group from the available options and click on Next button.

3. Log in to your LinkedIn account. From the top navigation bar, click For Business (grid icon), then select Groups. This will take you to the LinkedIn Groups page, where you can browse or search for groups.

4. Open the group you want to create a prospect list from, then copy the URL from your browser's address bar. This is the Linkedin Group URL that Flowkon will use to import prospects from that group.

5. Paste the Group Search URL into the input field, enter the list name. You will get the option to extract prospects, enter a specific prospect count to extract and then click on Finish button.

6. Once the search has been processed, the prospects from the specified LinkedIn group will be available to use in your campaigns.

Requirements

Before creating a LinkedIn Group Search, ensure that:

• You have the correct LinkedIn Group URL.
• The LinkedIn account connected to Flowkon has access to the group.
• The group members are visible according to LinkedIn's permissions and privacy settings.

Using the Propsect in a Campaign

After the LinkedIn Group Search has been created:

1. Go to New Campaign.
2. Enter all basic campaign details.
3. Select the saved LinkedIn Group Search.
4. Select campaign template or create from scratch. Configure your campaign sequence and settings.
5. Launch the campaign.

Flowkon will use the prospects imported from the LinkedIn group as the campaign audience.

Important Notes

• Prospects are imported from the LinkedIn group link that you provide.
• Only members that are accessible through your connected LinkedIn account can be retrieved.
• The same LinkedIn Group Search can be reused across multiple campaigns.
• Creating a LinkedIn Group Search does not automatically start a campaign; it only prepares the prospect list for campaign selection.
