How to turn a messy list of companies into LinkedIn contacts
Last updated
The short answer
Hand your agent the CSV as it is, with typos, missing domains and duplicates. Wannalead resolves each name to a LinkedIn company page, flags the ones it can't match, then lists the employees in the roles you care about at each company.
Why the list is messy
Event attendee lists, association directories and old spreadsheets rarely have clean company names. Matching them by hand is slow, and a wrong match means messaging the wrong company.
How to run it
Give the file and the roles you want. Ask for the unmatched rows to be listed separately so you can check them.
Prompt
Here is a CSV of family offices. Match each one to its LinkedIn company page, list the ones you couldn't match, and find the investment director or partner at each.
Questions and answers
- Does it find emails too?
- No. Wannalead returns LinkedIn profiles. If you need emails, push the list to an enrichment tool or to lemlist.
