People Search lets you import leads directly from a standard LinkedIn search without needing Sales Navigator. This is a simple and flexible way to build prospect lists.
1. Run a LinkedIn People Search
-
Open LinkedIn and run a People Search.
-
Use filters such as:
-
Network level (2nd or 3rd degree connections)
-
Keywords like job titles (CEO, Founder, Entrepreneur)
-
Location, company, industry, profile language, and service category
👉 The search page is already pre-populated in SalesMind AI to guide you, but you can reset and start fresh.
2. Use Keywords and Logic Operators
-
In the keyword field, add job titles or relevant terms.
-
Use capitalized logic operators:
-
OR → CEO OR Founder
-
AND → CEO AND Entrepreneur
-
Combine operators with parentheses for priority, similar to math.
-
Example: (CEO OR Entrepreneur) AND SaaS
👉 Operators must be in capital letters; lowercase will not work.
3. Apply Filters
-
Add additional filters for:
-
Actively hiring status
-
Current company
-
Followers
-
Industry or category
-
Optional filters make your search more precise, but leaving fields blank will broaden results.
4. Copy and Paste the URL
- Once your search is ready, copy the LinkedIn search URL.
- Paste it into SalesMind AI.
- The system will process the URL and import the results into your campaign.
