- Send a Connection Request: Start by sending a personalized connection request. Make sure your message is engaging and relevant to increase the chances of acceptance.

For a more sophisticated approach, consider using a Chrome extension like LeadLoft LinkedIn Prospector.
This tool leverages email pattern matching and verification to guess email addresses with remarkable accuracy. Here’s how you can use it:
- Install the LeadLoft Prospector Extension: Add the LeadLoft Prospector extension to your Chrome browser (Install here).
- Search for Your Prospect: Use Sales Navigator to find the prospect you’re interested in.
- Activate LeadLoft: With the prospect’s profile open, click the bright blue “Save” button. It will automatically find and verify the prospects email address based on their team’s most likely pattern.
- Save the Right Email: LeadLoft allows you to save the email address for a specific company. This is particularly useful if your prospect has multiple roles at different organizations.
This method doesn’t require you to be connected with the prospect and offers a high degree of accuracy, making it the best option for bulk email discovery.
3. Guess Their Email (Name + Domain)

The last option involves guessing the email address based on the prospect's name and the company’s domain. While this is the least reliable method, it can still be effective, especially for one-off needs. Here’s how you can do it:
- Identify Common Patterns: Most companies use predictable email patterns such as:some text
- FIRST@COMPANY.COM
- FIRST.LAST@COMPANY.COM
- FIRST.L@COMPANY.COM
- Generate Potential Emails: Use these patterns to create potential email addresses based on your prospect's name and the company domain.
- Test and Verify: Send a test email or use an email verification tool to check the validity of the generated addresses.
While this method can be hit-or-miss, it’s a quick and free way to potentially find a single email address. However, be cautious about sending bulk emails without verification, as this can lead to a high bounce rate and potential spam issues.
