How to ADD 1000 LinkedIn Connections Fast!
Your next question is how?
First you must understand Why it’s important to have at least 1000 connections or more LinkedIn connections.
Why To Have at Least 1000 Connections On LinkedIn?
Some people are firmly against having more LinkedIn connections or a lot of connections and I personally can’t understand why?
I respect it, but I don?t understand it.
Arguments are because LinkedIn Is a Business network, not social network??. If they were paying attention, they would see that LinkedIn is becoming a lot more social.
Very Understandable But?..
I don’t see how it could hurt having more LinkedIn connections. That’s more people to network, new business partners, and overall a larger LinkedIn connection basis.
I once read something that talked about the 6 degrees of separation.
In case you don’t know what that it, it’s the idea that you are only 6 connection degrees away from anyone on this earth.
Now that?s powerful
Recently according to Facebook Scientist that number is cut down to 4.74 degrees of separation using Facebook so imagine the number it could be with LinkedIn.
3 of those degrees are covered for you here on LinkedIn.
You never know how it may help you. I can think of at least 8 people I’ve helped get a job because of a connection I had on LinkedIn.
Now that you understand why it’s important to have more LinkedIn connections.
Here is what you should be doing first.
Invite everyone you know who could benefit from LinkedIn to Join you.(Everyone)
It’s wise to start with people you know first. You know them so they will accept you, and also you only get 3000 Lifetime LinkedIn invites. So you should make them count.
Email People from your personal emails to connect with you once you have used all of your invites. But don’t spam them. The emails should be to people you know, or you know will join you.
You can directly email your friends, family, and business contacts from sources like Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook, etc. Many of the email services will let you know which of your saved contacts are already registered members of LinkedIn. If they are it will have a LinkedIn icon next to their name.
More Tips

These groups alone can grow you more LinkedIn connections by hundreds, if you apply the proper techniques.
The reason these groups grow your connections super fast is because they send out weekly invite list. You send everyone on the list an invite and they will accept it. Also you can add your name to the list and people will begin to connect with you as well.
Many of these groups you can connect with on LinkedIn as well as on their main website.
Also Introduce yourself to every group you join, state you accept all invites and that you are an open networker. People will begin to send you Invites.
These should be more than enough tips to get you at least 1000 connections!!!!
