Main channels to import in Leadseeder?

We can import from all the LinkedIn premiums like:

  • LinkedIn Basic

  • LinkedIn Sales Navigator

  • LinkedIn Recruiter Lite

  • LinkedIn Premium

  • CSV file

Which Subscription allows us to import/export to Leadseeder?

We can import from any Leadseeder plan, we can even use import function for free and use that list in other tools like hubspot, zapier etc.

How many leads can I import?

From LinkedIn

  • LinkedIn limits the display of search results to 1000. You can only browse until page 100, with 10 results per page, and there is no page 101. Therefore, it is not possible to import more than 1000 leads per search.

  • If your search yields more than 1000 results, and you wish to exceed that limit, consider splitting it into smaller searches (such as different regions) to import all leads.

From Sales Navigator

  • Sales Navigator limits the display of search results to 2500 (100 pages of 25 results, and there is no page 101). Therefore, it is not possible to import more than 2500 leads per search. If your search yields more than 2500 results, try splitting it into smaller searches (such as varying regions) to import all leads.

What’s a “LinkedIn Member”?

On LinkedIn, you only have access to the profiles within 3 degrees of connection with you (1st degree means your relations, 2nd degree is the relations of your relations, etc.).

People outside that 3rd degree circle will be displayed as "LinkedIn member" in the search result, and you can't open their profile. In that case, Leadseeder can't scrap their profile either.

  • You then need to grow your network before being able to take full advantage of Leadseeder.

What are duplicates?

Leadseeder handles duplicates efficiently.

  • Duplicates refer to prospects who are already in one of your lists. Our security measures ensure that these duplicates are not imported again and contacted twice.

Why aren't all my prospects imported?

There are several reasons why the number of prospects imported may differ from the number you intended to import:

  1. Duplicates Detected: If a lead is already in your Leadseeder interface, it won't be imported again.

  2. Prospects Outside Your Network: Some prospects are beyond your 3rd-degree connections. Leadseeder cannot access their profiles and therefore cannot import them.

  3. Search Result Limits:

    • Your search contains more than 1,000 results, for a standard LinkedIn search.

    • Your search contains more than 2,500 results, for a Sales Navigator search.
