Generate Real Estate Leads Through LinkedIn Crawling



There is a cool feature on LinkedIn that is rarely used.  Have you ever gotten an email from LinkedIn with everyone who's viewed your profile in the past 7 days?  You probably have.  The best part?  LinkedIn has a great target demographic. Most of the individuals on there have professional careers and are likely home buyers and sellers.



What if your name and face could go out each and every week to individuals on LinkedIn?  Well it can!  It's called "LinkedIn Crawling". What is LinkedIn crawling you ask? It is where my computer automatically visits 400 profiles of target customers in one day.  This means 400 people a day are notified about me.
