With LinkedIn Prospect Finder<\/a>, you can collect prospects and find emails<\/a> on different LinkedIn pages: search results, personal profiles, company pages, and event attendee lists.<\/p>\n

The extension opens as a sidebar on the right side of your browser and stays open while you browse LinkedIn, so you can save leads from page to page.<\/p>\n

\n
\"learn\"<\/div>\n
\n

Saved leads are ready for enrichment<\/a> and outreach through email campaigns<\/a> or LinkedIn Automation<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

What prospect data the extension saves<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Each saved prospect includes general personal and company details and a contact: a verified email or a LinkedIn URL.<\/p>\n

\n
\"note\"<\/div>\n
\n

To enrich leads in bulk, save the starting LinkedIn data with the extension, then use the LinkedIn enrichment tool<\/a> to fill in profile fields, such as work experience, skills, and education.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

What company data the extension saves<\/strong><\/h2>\n

On company pages, the sidebar previews full company details, such as industry, headquarters, employee count, specialties, and funding. The full company profile saves to your company list, whether you save one company or many. You can view it in Snov.io<\/a>, and opening a company profile there costs 1 credit.<\/p>\n

To enrich prospects with this data and use it as context in other AI tools, add prospects from that company, then use Get company details<\/a> enrichment. After that, you can also export this data.<\/p>\n

On company employee lists, the extension saves the people who work there.<\/p>\n
