To ensure your campaign reaches the right target audience, you need to include a specific search. In this article, we will explore the different types of searches available.

When setting up a campaign, one of the key steps is adding a search.

To do this, go to Campaigns > Create New Campaign > Choose Campaign Type > + Add Search.

Once you click + Add Search, you will be prompted to select a search type.

Let's break down each search type and its functionality:

  • Search URL: This search requires a Social URL, where parameters are already defined within the link you have generated.

  • Post URL: Enter a link to a specific Social post, and the search will focus on profiles that have liked the post.

  • Event: Provide a Social event link. Note: Event searches allow you to send messages without connection requests, making it vital to set Send Message as the initial step.

  • Group: Insert a Social group link to interact with group members. This type also allows message sending without connection requests. You can send up to 15 free 1-on-1 group messages each month, making it possible to add a Send connection request as the first step in the campaign.

    Once the limit for sending group messages is used up, further group messages can only be sent after you have connected with the prospect.

  • Navigator List URL: Paste a URL of a list search generated through your Sales Navigator subscription.

  • Recruiter Project URL: Requires a recruiter/projects link created using the Social Recruiter tool.

  • Recruiter Search: This search type differs from the previous one as it generates a different kind of link. Recruiter Search specifically requires a talent/search link type.

  • CSV File: Upload a CSV file that contains the list of prospects you want to target in your campaign.

  • Add with API: Integrate searches using API connections for seamless prospect addition. To do so, follow the instruction:

Keep in mind that for each search type, you have the option to specify the maximum number of individuals to be included in the search.
