🔄 How to Add Leads from Sales Navigator with a Free LinkedIn Account?​

If you have multiple LinkedIn profiles for outreach and at least one free LinkedIn account, you can still benefit from Sales Navigator’s powerful filters using a smart workflow in LeadCarnival.

👣 Step-by-Step Process​

1. Use a Profile with Sales Navigator Access​

If you’ve added multiple LinkedIn profiles to LeadCarnival and one of them has Sales Navigator, use that account to perform your search.

2. Run the Search in Sales Navigator​

Use advanced filters such as:

  • Job Title
  • Company Headcount
  • Seniority Level
  • Geography
  • And more...

3. Import Leads into LeadCarnival (via Sales Navigator Profile)​

  • Go to Campaigns → Create New Campaign
  • Choose the Sales Navigator Search URL option
  • LeadCarnival will scrape and display your target list
  • Export the leads as a CSV file

4. Switch to Your Free LinkedIn Profile​

Now go to the campaign associated with your free LinkedIn profile in LeadCarnival.

5. Upload the CSV File of Leads​

  • Click “Add Leads”
  • Choose Upload CSV
  • Map columns like Name, LinkedIn URL, etc.
  • Save and proceed to sequence building

✅ Why This Works​

  • You get Sales Navigator-level targeting with free-profile execution
  • Useful when only some of your team or profiles have paid LinkedIn accounts
  • Allows efficient targeting across all LinkedIn tiers in your account

With this method, you get the best of both worlds: Sales Nav’s filters + Free account outreach scalability.
