LinkedIn Method
The LinkedIn Method is a manual, relationship-first lead warming system that helps business owners, consultants, and B2B service providers create warmer leads through LinkedIn Sales Navigator.
You can have this system done for you, or you can learn the step-by-step process through the LinkedIn Method course and run it yourself.
Two Ways to Use the LinkedIn Method
Some business owners want the entire system handled for them. Others want to learn the method and run it themselves. Both options are available.

This is the full-service option where I handle the targeting, Sales Navigator organization, connection strategy, Touches, posts, comments, replies, notifications, and warm lead development.
- Best for busy business owners
- Manual LinkedIn activity handled for you
- Warm lead list grows over time
- Full pricing is listed in the done-for-you pricing section below
Step-by-Step LinkedIn Method Course
This option teaches you the method step by step so you or someone on your team can learn how to target, connect, send Touches, organize leads, and warm up prospects on LinkedIn.
- Step-by-step training
- Learn the timing and messaging
- Understand how the Touch sequence works
- Run the system yourself or train someone on your team
Done-For-You LinkedIn Method Pricing
The done-for-you pricing increases because the work compounds as the lead list grows. More connections create more Touches, more replies, more notifications, more messages, and more people to organize and manage.
Build the Foundation
The first 6 months are focused on building the system, targeting the right audience, connecting with leads, starting the Touch sequence, posting consistently, and organizing prospects inside Sales Navigator.
- Sales Navigator targeting strategy
- Targeted connection building
- Helpful Touch sequence begins
- LinkedIn and Sales Navigator messages monitored
- Two LinkedIn posts per day
- Comments and notifications handled
Grow the Warm Lead List
During the second 6 months, the audience is larger. That means more Touches, more replies, more notifications, more conversations, and more warm leads moving through the system.
- Continued targeted connecting
- More leads moving through Touches
- Expanded message management
- More notifications and replies handled
- Ongoing posts and engagement
- Weekly warm lead list growth
Compounded Lead System
Starting in year two, the system has compounded. The workload is significantly higher because there are more connections, more conversations, more organized lists, and more warm opportunities to manage.
- Larger LinkedIn lead audience
- Higher-volume Touch management
- More replies and notifications
- Continued posting and commenting
- Ongoing Sales Navigator list organization
- Predictable monthly cap at this level
The monthly done-for-you price is capped at the Year 2+ level, so clients have predictable pricing even as the lead system continues growing.

What Makes This Different?
LinkedIn does not allow outside automation for this kind of relationship-building activity, so this method is done manually. That is one reason most people fail at it. They either move too fast, pitch too soon, or disappear for so long that people forget them.
The LinkedIn Method uses human timing, helpful messaging, consistent posting, thoughtful replies, and organized follow-up. It is not spam. It is not pushy. It is not random networking.
Think of it like the business lesson people get from those chicken sandwich guys who are closed on Sundays. People do not just remember the food. They remember that they were treated well. They remember the kindness, the consistency, the helpfulness, and the feeling that somebody actually cared.
That is the point of this method. People warm up when they feel seen, respected, and helped before they are asked to buy anything.
How the LinkedIn Method Works
Whether you hire me to do it for you or learn it through the course, the method is built around manual targeting, connection building, helpful Touches, consistent posting, thoughtful replies, and organized follow-up.
Start with Sales Navigator
The process starts with LinkedIn Sales Navigator. You decide who you want to target, what kind of leads would make sense for your business, and what audience would be most valuable to build relationships with.
Narrow Down the Target Audience
Sales Navigator is used to filter and narrow the search so you can find the right kinds of people. The goal is not to connect with everyone. The goal is to connect with potential customers who actually fit the business.
Connect with Potential Leads
Once the target audience is identified, connection requests are sent manually. When someone accepts the invite, they can begin moving through the Touch sequence.
Send the Touch Sequence
The Touches are helpful, encouraging, and informative. They are designed to give the person something useful without making them feel like they are being pitched immediately.
Engage Like a Real Human
Messages are answered. Comments are replied to. Posts are commented on. Notifications are handled when appropriate. The goal is to keep the relationship alive without making the other person feel pressured.
Move Warm Leads Toward Outreach
Once the Touch sequence is complete, the lead receives a final outreach-style Touch. This is not a hard sales pitch. It is an invitation to start a conversation.
Touches Are the Strategy. Notifications Support the Relationship.
The Touch sequence is the heart of the LinkedIn Method. These are specific messages sent in a specific order with a specific purpose: to be helpful, encouraging, useful, and memorable before any outreach conversation happens.
LinkedIn notifications are separate from the Touch sequence, but they support the relationship. Birthdays, work anniversaries, promotions, new jobs, comments, and other updates create natural chances to show kindness and stay visible.
This matters because good business is not only about being seen. It is about being remembered in a positive way.
- Helpful Touch messages
- Encouraging communication
- Useful insight
- Friendly replies
- Thoughtful comments
- Natural notification-based engagement
The “Just Right” Timing Is What Makes It Work
Too much too fast feels aggressive. Too little communication gets forgotten. This method is built around the middle ground that keeps the relationship warm.
People Feel Pushed
When someone connects and immediately gets pitched, it can feel like a trap. That is how bridges get burned before a real conversation can happen.
People Feel Seen
The right timing keeps the business visible, helpful, and familiar without making the lead feel pressured. That is where warmth is built.
People Forget You
When the communication is too spread out or inconsistent, the connection goes cold and the lead has no real reason to remember the business.
What Is Included in the Done-For-You Service?
Sales Navigator Research
We define the target audience and use Sales Navigator to find people who match the client’s ideal lead profile.
Manual Lead Connections
Connection activity is handled manually so the process stays human, compliant with LinkedIn expectations, and focused on quality.
Warm-Up Messaging
Leads who accept the connection move through a sequence of helpful Touches designed to build familiarity before outreach.
Two Posts Per Day
One post is more personal, friendly, or relatable. The other is informational and points people back toward the business.
Comments & Notifications
LinkedIn notifications are used as natural relationship-building opportunities, including birthdays, work anniversaries, congratulations, and comments.
Message Management
LinkedIn and Sales Navigator messages are answered in a way that makes people feel seen, heard, and not ignored.
The Warm Lead Timeline
The first warm lead list takes time because the Touch sequence should not be rushed.
Build, Connect, and Warm Up
Since the process usually includes about 6–8 Touches, it can take close to two months before the first properly warmed-up lead list is ready.
- Target audience is defined
- Sales Navigator searches are built
- Connection requests are sent
- Touches begin after people accept
- Posts, replies, and engagement support the process
40–50 Warm Leads Per Week
Depending on the target audience, most clients can end up with around 40–50 warm leads per week once the system is moving.
- Warm lead list grows weekly
- Leads continue compounding
- More people move through the sequence
- Outreach becomes easier because they recognize the client
How You Can Use the Warm Leads
Once leads have gone through the Touch sequence and are organized, the client can use the warm lead list in several ways.
- Use the list as a call list
- Use the list for email marketing
- Follow up through LinkedIn outreach
- Invite prospects into a conversation
- Pitch services after familiarity has been built
In many cases, it is best for the client to do the calls themselves because LinkedIn is warming the leads up to them personally and professionally.
Additional Follow-Up Options
If the client wants help after the warm lead list is created, email marketing can be added as an additional service.
Calls may also be discussed separately, but that would be an additional cost. The main service is focused on building and warming the LinkedIn lead pipeline.
The goal is to give the business a growing list of people who are more likely to listen because they already feel some familiarity.
Who This Works Best For
The LinkedIn Method works especially well for B2B companies, consultants, professional service providers, business services, and high-trust service businesses where relationships matter.
For SEO, this works especially well because almost any business can become a client. For other industries, it is strongest when the ideal customer is already spending time on LinkedIn.
- B2B companies
- Consultants
- Business service providers
- Professional services
- Marketing and growth services
- High-ticket service providers
- Businesses that sell to owners, executives, directors, or managers
Why the Payoff Can Be Bigger Than the Monthly Cost
The done-for-you method is significantly cheaper than hiring someone full-time in your office to manage LinkedIn outreach, Sales Navigator, posting, messaging, replies, notifications, comments, and lead organization.
Even if you hired someone, they would still need to learn the timing, the tone, the Touch sequence, the list organization, and the relationship-first approach that makes this work.
For the right business, one new client, contract, partnership, or long-term account can be worth far more than the monthly investment. And if you prefer to learn the process yourself first, the course gives you a lower-cost way to understand the method.
Why This Also Supports Brand and SEO
Some businesses want a strong online presence because people search for them before deciding whether to call, book, refer, or respond. A strong brand matters when someone looks you up on Google, checks your LinkedIn profile, or asks AI/search tools about your business.
SEO helps people find you when they search. The LinkedIn Method helps you proactively build relationships with people who may need your services before they ever search.
For businesses where good leads are harder to get through search alone, LinkedIn can become a powerful place to build visibility, trust, and conversations with the people who are most likely to matter.
Why This Method Feels Different to Leads
Most people start with a pitch. That often puts people off and burns the bridge before a real conversation can happen.
What This Method Avoids
- No outside automation
- No spam messaging
- No immediate hard pitch
- No random, disconnected posting
- No aggressive follow-up that makes people uncomfortable
- No disappearing so long that people forget you
What This Method Builds
- Familiarity
- Trust
- Recognition
- Kindness in the conversation
- More receptive prospects
- A warmer path to outreach
The result: People who are not interested often respond more kindly, and people who may be interested are more willing to listen because they feel like they already know you.
