Why search for an e-mail address on LinkedIn?

When it comes to B2B prospecting, LinkedIn is often the first channel you think of. You’ll find the right profiles, the right roles, and the key information you need to qualify a prospect. 🗝️

But to refine your strategy and deepen your relationships, it’s often necessary to get out of LinkedIn, let me explain. ⤵️

1) E-mail remains the most powerful B2B channel

Even with LinkedIn messages, professional e-mail remains timeless:

• Perceived as more serious and structured.
• Not dependent on LinkedIn’s algorithms or limitations.
• Integrated with tracking and CRM tools.

2) LinkedIn limits access to information

LinkedIn does not give out its users’ professional e-mails, unless :

• You are already in contact with them (1st degree).
• They have made their addresses public in their contact details.
• You use InMail.

In the end, you’re stuck at the stage: I find this prospect interesting, but I can’t contact him.

3) Searching for e-mails by hand takes a lot of time

Go to the company website, search for a generic email format, test possibilities…

It’s possible, but at what cost? 🤔

That’s why there are tools like Waalaxy that automate the search and give you the right information straight away. 👀

Conclusion: what if you stopped wasting time?

For a long time, finding an e-mail address on LinkedIn was a complex, time-consuming and often unreliable task. 🥲

But today, with tools like Waalaxy, this step can be automated, structured, and above all, integrated into a genuine multi-channel strategy. 💪🏼

Thanks to campaigns with enrichment, the Chrome extension, or even via contact details directly accessible on certain profiles, it’s now possible to save time without sacrificing the quality of prospecting. ⚡️

In B2B, every opportunity counts. Optimizing the way you collect e-mails lays the foundations for more effective, targeted and professional prospecting.

All that’s left is to test and choose the method that best suits your organization. 😇
