LinkedIn Company Follower Collector

Cold outreach works better for warm leads. LinkedIn profiles that already follow your LinkedIn company page are hot as a plate straight out of the oven. The LinkedIn Company Follower Extractor Phantom helps you extract all the followers of your LinkedIn company page so that you can leverage the leads in your outreach strategy.

Limitations & Rate Limits: This Phantom can extract up to 10,000 followers per LinkedIn company page. This cap is due to LinkedIn’s technical restrictions, which limit the amount of data that can be accessed. Additionally, to avoid hitting LinkedIn’s rate limits or triggering anti-automation mechanisms, we recommend launching the Phantom at moderate intervals and keeping your activity under 2,500 requests per day per LinkedIn account.

Downloading a list of LinkedIn company followers

LinkedIn doesn’t allow you to simply download the list of followers of your LinkedIn page. But don’t fret, because that’s what PhantomBuster is here for.

Note: You have to be the admin of the LinkedIn Company page you’re downloading followers from. If you are not the admin of your company’s LinkedIn page, you can also ask the admin for their Session Cookie and paste it manually in the Session cookie field when setting up the Phantom. (read more about session cookies here)

Use this Phantom to download a list of all the followers of your LinkedIn Company page. The leads you extract will be saved in your LinkedIn Leads dashboard, and you can use the list with PhantomBuster to:

• Enrich your data to get more information about each lead, for example finding email addresses

• Create an outreach campaign such as sending connection requests or messages

• Send them to your CRM through our CRM Phantoms

• Save them as a CSV file for backup or to upload in a different tool such as Excel or Google Sheets

How to export the followers of a LinkedIn company page

This Phantom needs your session cookie and your company page's URL as an input, so it can access your list of followers and extract each one into a spreadsheet.

The easiest way to connect PhantomBuster with your LinkedIn account is to use our browser extension for Chrome or Firefox, which automatically fetches your session cookie to automate LinkedIn on your behalf.

1. Enter your company's LinkedIn page URL into the Phantom's setup.

2. Launch the Phantom and/or set it to launch repeatedly.

3. Download the prospects' data to a spreadsheet or Excel file.

The number of followers extracted depends on what LinkedIn displays at the time, as the platform doesn’t always reveal the full list.

What can I do with my company’s LinkedIn Followers?

PhantomBuster isn't just great for scraping. Let’s explore what you can do once you export LinkedIn Followers of your company.

1. Enrich your leads' data with Phantoms

Enriching your company followers' data means that we find more information about each one of them that they have available on their LinkedIn profile. The data you get from this Phantom includes their LinkedIn Profile URL, their name, and LinkedIn description.

This might not be enough for you to start your outreach campaign. If you want to get more data about your followers, or if you want to find their email for an email outreach campaign, you can use the output you get from this Phantom as input for other Phantoms.

Bonus tip: We recommend saving the output from a Phantom as a Lead List on the LinkedIn leads page so that you have a clear structure of your leads. Plus, you can add them manually or use filters, so that you only keep a record of the profiles you're interested in.

Phantoms to enrich your follower data

Here is a quick list of Phantoms that you can use to enrich your leads' data and get to know them better.

A. The LinkedIn Profile Scraper Phantom

The LinkedIn Profile Scraper Phantom scrapes the entire LinkedIn profile of the user and gets you more detailed results, such as their company name, title, universities, follower count and connections, and their phone number (if they've added it to their profile).

B. The Professional Email Finder Phantom

The Professional Email Finder Phantom can find professional emails and contact information through our email discovery services. If you already have an account with Dropcontact, Hunter, or Snov, you can connect your account to PhantomBuster.

If you do not have an account with one of these, PhantomBuster gives you email credits to use with any paid plan so you can find emails with the PhantomBuster email discovery service. This is a great way to get started with your email marketing campaign.

C. The AI LinkedIn Profile Enricher Phantom

The AI LinkedIn Profile Enricher Phantom lets you ask AI about the profiles you’ve gathered. It can help you clean up location and title data, identify if the lead correlates to your ICP, or estimate the salary range of a lead.

Just bear in mind that the AI LinkedIn Profile Enricher Phantom works best if you've already enriched the company follower data with the LinkedIn Profile Scraper Phantom.

2. Use outreach Phantoms to create a campaign

Once you have enriched data (it’s okay if you skipped that step), you can use the output you got from the LinkedIn Company Follower Extractor Phantom to reach out to the followers you have scraped.

Phantoms and Flows to automate your outreach

Here's a list of Phantoms and Flows that can help you to build connections with the profiles you've just gathered.

A. The LinkedIn Outreach Flow

The LinkedIn Outreach Flow is an all-in-one automation that allows you to send connection requests with up to three follow-up messages.

B. The LinkedIn Auto Connect Phantom

The LinkedIn Auto Connect Phantom lets you automatically connect with followers you’re not connected to before to increase your number of LinkedIn contacts.

C. The LinkedIn Message Sender Phantom

The LinkedIn Message Sender Phantom allows you to send messages to followers you have already connected with. This helps you to set the tone and build a connection from the get-go.

D. The AI LinkedIn Message Writer Phantom

The AI LinkedIn Message Writer Phantom saves you from ever having writer's block again when preparing your outreach messages. The AI LinkedIn Message Writer can write individualized messages to every person on your Lead list. The AI LinkedIn Message Writer works best if you have enriched the company follower data with the LinkedIn Profile Scraper Phantom first.
