Map and Activate Your LinkedIn Network with Claude [5/13/2026] (Recording)

You have hundreds of LinkedIn connections you've never done anything with. In this hands-on session, we'll turn your exported LinkedIn data into a working professional CRM in Notion — no automation tools, code, or technical setup required. Using a Claude prompt, we'll categorize your top contacts by relationship tier, industry, and relevance, then drop everything into a pre-built Notion template so you know exactly who to reach out to, when, and what to say. You'll also get a read on what content resonates with your specific network, which feeds directly into what we build in the next session. Pre-work: Request your LinkedIn connections export at least 24 hours before the session (Settings → Data Privacy → Get a copy of your data). LinkedIn emails it within 24 hours and it only takes 2 minutes to request. Outcome for attendees: A populated Notion CRM with their top LinkedIn contacts categorized into tiers, a suggested next action for each, and a content resonance analysis showing what topics will actually land with their network. Session pre-requisites: Claude account & Notion account — free is fine 🙂
