How to Connect with People Who Engage with LinkedIn Posts (Complete Guide) πŸš€
This is one of the most underrated LinkedIn networking strategies - connecting with people who already showed interest in topics relevant to your niche.
**Tools you'll need:**
Here's the complete step-by-step process:
## Why This Strategy Works
When someone engages with a post, they're actively interested in that topic. They're warm leads, not cold connections.
If you connect with people who engaged with a marketing post, you know they care about marketing. If they engaged with a SaaS founder's content, they're likely in that space.
**This beats random connection requests by a mile.**
## Step-by-Step: How to Connect with Post Engagers
**Step 1: Find a Relevant Post**
Look for posts from influencers or thought leaders in your industry with high engagement.
For this example, I used a Gary Vaynerchuk post with 200+ reactions.
**Step 2: Click on the Reactions**
Click on the reaction count under the post to see everyone who engaged.
**Step 3: Select All Engagers**
Highlight and select all the people who reacted to the post. You can scroll to the bottom to get everyone (I had 200+ people in my example).
**Step 4: Copy the List**
Copy all the highlighted names and profiles.
**Step 5: Go to evyAI's Post Engagement Saver**
Navigate to the Engagement Saver tool: https://strategy.evyai.com/engagementsaver
**Step 6: Paste and Process**
Paste all the copied information into the tool and click "Process List."
**Step 7: Get Your Spreadsheet**
The tool generates a spreadsheet with all the information about each person who engaged - names, profiles, headlines, and LinkedIn URLs.
**Step 8: Copy the URLs**
Scroll through your spreadsheet and click "Copy" to get all the LinkedIn profile URLs.
**Step 9: Go to Bulk Link Opener 4**
Navigate to the Bulk Link Opener 4 tool: https://strategy.evyai.com/bulklinkopener4
**Step 10: Paste and Process URLs**
Paste your copied URLs and click "Process URLs."
In my example, I had 180 URLs ready to open.
**Step 11: Set Your Timing**
Choose your time interval between opening profiles. I use 8 seconds (or the infinity symbol for continuous opening).
**Step 12: Start Opening Profiles**
Click "Start Time Opening" and the tool will automatically open each profile one by one.
**Step 13: Send Connection Requests**
As each profile opens, send personalized connection requests. Skip people you're already connected with.
**Step 14: Stop When Done**
Click "Stop" in the Bulk Link Opener when you're finished.
## Pro Tips for Maximum Results
Target posts with 100+ engagements for the best pool of prospects.
Look for posts in your specific niche or industry.
Personalize your connection requests - mention the post they engaged with.
Example: "Hi [Name], saw you engaged with Gary's post about marketing strategies. I share similar content - would love to connect!"
Don't send too many requests in one session - pace yourself to stay within LinkedIn's limits.
Focus on quality over quantity - send thoughtful requests to people who are genuinely relevant.
## Why This Beats Random Outreach
**Targeting:** You're connecting with people already interested in your topics.
**Warm audience:** They're active LinkedIn users who engage with content.
**Common ground:** You have an immediate conversation starter (the post they engaged with).
**Higher acceptance rate:** People are more likely to accept when there's context.
**Efficiency:** You can process hundreds of relevant prospects in minutes.
## Common Questions
**Is this allowed on LinkedIn?** Yes, you're manually sending connection requests to public profiles - completely within LinkedIn's terms.
**How many connections can I send?** LinkedIn has weekly invitation limits, so pace your outreach strategically.
**Should I add a note?** Always. Mention the post they engaged with for better acceptance rates.
**What if I'm already connected?** Skip them and move to the next profile.
## The Results
Instead of randomly connecting with people, you're strategically building a network of engaged, relevant professionals.
This approach has helped me expand my network with people who actually care about the topics I discuss.
Your network grows with intention, not just numbers.
