Add contacts to the Interseller Chrome extension

About the Interseller Chrome extension

The Interseller Chrome extension is a browser plugin that you can use to add contacts to Interseller sequences from a website, resume or manually through the extension without leaving your current workflow.

For users with an assigned seat, the extension has the ability to search for a contact's email address when parsing their information from select websites.

You can accelerate your outreach initiative and improve response rates through enriched and accurate contact data by looking up contact emails directly from individual LinkedIn profiles.

To get started, install and setup the Chrome extension and then set up your first sequence before adding contacts.

Add contacts to the extension

LinkedIn Free, Premium, Recruiter Lite and Sales Navigator users can perform individual email lookups directly from a contact's LinkedIn profile by following these steps:

1. Open the contact's LinkedIn profile.
2. Click the More button and select Save to PDF from the drop-down menu.
3. The extension pop-up will open and automatically start parsing the LinkedIn PDF to perform an email lookup.
4. Next, click the arrow next to theSelect a sequence" drop-down menu to search for your sequence. Either scroll through the Sequences or type in the field to search. You can also toggle between the My Sequences and All sequences tabs.
5. Lastly, click Save Contact to add them to your sequence.

If more than one email address appears in the lookup window, you will need to select one email address from the list so you can add the contact to a sequence. You cannot have two email addresses per contact profile.

If no email is found, you will not be charged a lookup credit. There is not an option to save that contact to a sequence without an email address.

Manually lookup a contact

If you have reached LinkedIn's PDF download limit or you prefer not to lookup contacts through PDF download, you can manually lookup a contact by following these steps:

1. Open the contact's LinkedIn profile and click the extension button.
2. In the pop-up window, add the contact's name in the Name field.
3. Click Lookup.
4. Once an email address is found, select the sequence you want to add them to.
5. Then add in the contact's details manually into each of the contact fields.
6. Lastly, click Save Contact to add them to your sequence.

Add contacts in bulk using LinkedIn Recruiter

1. From LinkedIn Recruiter search results page, select all of the contacts that you want to lookup.
2. Click Save to project to save the contacts to a project pipeline.
3. A pop-up window will appear where you'll either select an existing project or create a new project to save the contacts to. Click Save.
4. Next, click the Projects tab at the top of LinkedIn to select the project you're working on. Then click into the Pipeline tab and select all contacts again.
5. Click the ellipses icon and select save to CSV file. This will automatically open the extension pop-up window and will lookup emails from the LinkedIn CSV file.
6. Lastly, once all of the lookups have finished select the Interseller sequence you want to add the contacts to and click Save.

Duplicate contacts

If the contact that has been added, messaged, or responded on Interseller before, this information will be highlighted in a yellow box. This is especially helpful for checking to see if a contact exists as a duplicate in other sequences.

Our Chrome Extension will warn you when we find an email address that matches a contact in one of your existing sequences. 

This will prevent our system from charging you a lookup as long as the email preference matches the address in the sequence and the address we have found in the extension.

Check for duplicates in your integration

If there's a connected integration and the same email address exists in the integration, this will also highlight the contact as a duplicate in the integration in a yellow box. This is helpful to know if the same contact already exists in your connected CRM/ATS.

Check for unsubscribed/blocked contacts

If the contact is blocked, has unsubscribed, or if their email previously bounced, this information will also be highlighted in a red box. This prevents you from sending messages to contacts who are currently blocked, have previously unsubscribed, or whose emails have previously bounced from your sequences.

Found on LinkedIn profile

Our Chrome Extension will warn you when we find an email address that matches the address listed on a contact's LinkedIn profile. This will prevent our system from charging a lookup as long as the email preference matches the type of address listed on their profile.

Frequently asked questions

What if Interseller can't find a contact's email address?

You will not be charged a lookup if no email is found. If you are on our Recruiter plan, you can run another lookup for the contact using an alternative lookup preference.

Check out our guide here for more details on changing lookup preferences.

If we’re not able to find any email addresses for the contact, we recommend reaching out to the contact via LinkedIn instead.

How do lookups work?

Email lookup credits only apply to emails that you find through our Chrome extension or via CSV import. Essentially 1 found email = 1 email lookup credit but there are a few caveats.

Check out this guide to learn how email lookups work, when they do and don't count towards your limit.

Which versions of LinkedIn support bulk lookups?

Bulk lookups are only available for LinkedIn Recruiter users. Free, Premium, Recruiter Lite, and Sales Navigator users will only have the option to do individual email lookups.

The Interseller button no longer appears on LinkedIn and I can't do bulk lookups. Did something change?

Yes, as of January 8, 2024, Interseller will no longer scrape data from LinkedIn profiles or support bulk email lookups for non-LinkedIn Recruiter accounts. This update was made in order to comply with LinkedIn's terms and conditions.

Check out this guide to learn more about LinkedIn's changes.

If you're still having trouble using our extension, please try these troubleshooting steps before reaching out to our Technical Support team.

What are LinkedIn's limits on PDF and CSV downloads?

LinkedIn Recruiter users are limited to 200 PDF's and 5,000 CSV's per month and regular LinkedIn users are limited to 100 PDF's per month.

Once you reach this limit, the Save to PDF button won't be available until the next month.

As an alternative, you can perform email lookups by importing your own lists through CSV imports or by manually looking up a contact by following the steps listed above.

Will I get notified once I reach LinkedIn's download limits?

Interseller is unable to warn users when they've reached LinkedIn's limits. However, you will receive a notification directly in your LinkedIn Recruiter account once you've exceeded the monthly limit.

You can refer to this LinkedIn article for more information.

Once you reach this limit, the Save to PDF button will be disabled until the following month.
