LinkedIn has limits on everything! - number of pending group requests

As part of my 'try to use linkedin' better strategy. I've been looking at the profiles for people in roles I probably want to connect with to get work.

And when I do that, I've been looking to see what groups they are members of.

Then I apply to join those groups that seem relevant.

Strategy:

• view prospect profile
• scan groups
• join potentially beneficial groups

And then LinkedIn says:

"You've already requested to join too many groups. Withdraw pending requests before joining this group."

I think I had about 6 requests pending.

As a result of this my strategy is now:

• view prospect profile
• scan groups
• make a list of potentially beneficial groups
• join groups in my list

Otherwise, I'll forget the good groups.

And since LinkedIn allows you to join about 100 groups I'm working through my list now.

PS:

Remember to edit your profile so that you only show groups in your profile that augment your sales message.
