In this example, we are going to use Phantombuster.

Ok cool…

You got a list of linkedin event attendees

Now, it’s time for outreach

Let me show you how to do it properly

How To Reach Out To Linkedin Event Attendees?

3 ways to reach out to linkedin event attendees:

1. Message requests
2. Connections Requests or Inmails
3. Emails

1. Send Messages Requests

Do you know that you can send direct messages to linkedin event attendees without sending a connection request first?

That is one of the technique use to bypass the linkedin connection request limit.

If you go to the “Networking” tab you can notice that there is “Message” button.

These are called “Messages Requests”.

They appear will appear in the “Other” tab of the inbox.

The name of the event you both participate in will be used as subject for the message: “Via <name of the event>”

This method is convenient because you don’t need to send a connection request.

But the reply rate will be lower as the messages don’t appear in the main inbox of your prospects.

2. Connection Requests or Inmails

If you prefer to use the regular path, you can send connection requests to Linkedin event attendees.

Here are some guidelines to follow to increase your acceptance rate:

If you want to be sure your message lands on your prospect’s main inbox, you can send inmails messages.

That way you don’t need your connection request to be accepted to start a conversation with them.

This is what Inmails look like in your inbox:

3. Find their emails

If the attendees don’t reply to your message requests nor your linkedin messages, you can still try to find their emails.

2 steps for that:

1. Find their company name or website
2. Upload your list into an email finder tool

To achieve these 2 steps you can use the Linkedin Profile Scraper Phantom

This tool will extract the company name from the linkedin profiles of linkedin event attendees.

With this company name you’ll be able to get the data email finder needs to find emails:

1. First name
2. Last name
3. Company name or domain

The email finder step is included in Phantombuster, you just need to select your favorite tool and it will automatically add the emails in your Excel file.

Linkedin Message Templates For Event Attendees Outreach

3 messages templates you can use to contact linkedin event attendees:

1. After your own event
2. Before an event
3. After an event

1. After your own event

If you are the person that organized the event, this is really simple.

Simply send a message the day after the event asking for feedbacks.

Message template

Hello <first name>,

Thanks for attending to our webinar ?

I want to make sure we delivered the value that was expected.

Do you have some feedbacks on what you saw?

Best, JB

Event attendees love when people take time to take care about the experience.

Think about the chef at the restaurant who comes to you to ask for feedbacks: pleasant right?

2. Before an event

If you are not the person organizing the event, you can still reach out to the attendees.

The best strategy is to keep it simple:

Message template

Hello <first name>,

I noticed that you were also going to participate to <event name> next week.

What are you expecting from this event?

Best, JB

Note that is a great way to steal your competitors’ audiences on linkedin. I made a complete video on this topic if you’re interested:

3. After an event

Reaching out to event attendees after the event is even easier.

Same thing.

You just need to ask for feedbacks

Message template

Hello <first name>

I’m trying to collect feedback on the webinar {{webinar_name}}.

Did you attend to it?

Interested in your thoughts

Best, JB

It’s important to ensure they attended to it because a lot of people click on the “Attend” button but never show up.

This is a great way to contact people that have potentially been disappointed by your competitors.

And if they love your competitors, you will know why and that will help you improve your sales and marketing efforts.
