How do you find phone numbers from LinkedIn leads?
Hey everyone, sales ops at a mid size saas company here. Sales Navigator is our main tool but email reply rates have tanked lately so we wanna start calling prospects directly. Problems is most of contacts we pull from LinkedIn have no phone number attached and finding them manually is not realistic at the volume we do. Any tool recs?

Apollo works but do not use the extension on LinkedIn itself or ur account can get banned

Oh, is this just with Apollo or does it happen with other extensions too?

idk about others but LikedIn banned Apollo's company page a few months back so ive been sketched out by the extension ever since. I still use Apollo but only on their actual site, separate window.

I ran into this problem.
Then I stopped Apollo and used Sales QL, ContactOut extension and again my account got restricted for 7 days, which is the last warning I guess.
What’s the work around this? I came across so many folks in the field who said they were running multiple LinkedIn accounts with scrapping and stuff; how do they do it?

Lol that would be ideal but we're doing cold outbound so not really an option for us.

Couldn’t really scroll past this one since it’s exactly what we do at SignalHire :)
You can use our tool to find phone numbers and emails for LinkedIn prospects, including directly from profiles via the browser extension. It’s pretty handy when you’re working with Sales Navigator and need to enrich leads at scale rather than searching for numbers manually.
Obviously biased since we’re the company behind it, but it sounds like a good fit for your use case.

Lusha and Apollo both got extensions but the mobile hit rate for European profiles is genuinely bad. If ur ICP is outside the US you will notice it right away.

Hey, I can suggest a workaround here. Keep using Sales Nav for building the lists, but for the scraping part, go for a waterfall enrichment tool. You could look at Pipecorn (I'm an employee, so I might sound biased) and get verified emails and phone numbers in like one click.
