Episode 348: When To "Add A Note" To A Connection Request On LinkedIn

In this episode, we are going to take a deep dive into when you should and shouldn't add a note to a connection request you are sending to someone on LinkedIn. 

This is absolutely a topic of discussion for those who use LinkedIn on a regular basis.

We are all looking for ways or "hacks" to improve our acceptance rate of connections sent out on LinkedIn.

One of those ways is "adding a note" to the connection request to personalize it.

Now in reality it sounds like a great idea, but I have found that if it's done too often, it gets lumped into the same category of "spam" messages being sent out.

In my opinion, there are 3 instances where it is appropriate to send a connection request with a note:

1. If you know the individual personally

2. If you were referred to connect with them by a mutual connection or colleague

3. If you found the person via their business (book, podcast, speaking engagement, networking event)
