Overview

La Growth Machine can enrich your leads by automatically finding and validating their LinkedIn profile URLs — even when they’re missing from your data.

Key benefits

  • Automation to retrieve missing LinkedIn profile URLs instantly

  • Accuracy using first name, last name, and company to match the right profile

  • Multichannel power since more LinkedIn URLs = up to 3.5× more replies


How does La Growth Machine find LinkedIn URLs?


Finding LinkedIn profile URLs using pre-enrichment

How it works

With pre-enrichment, La Growth Machine uses the data you already have (first name, last name, company) to search for the matching LinkedIn profiles.

This happens before the campaign starts — hence the name “pre-enrichment”.

You can enrich leads directly from the Lead page.


Auto-enrichment inside a campaign

You can also enable auto-enrichment within your campaign.
This triggers the LinkedIn URL search automatically at the start of your sequence.


What happens when no LinkedIn URLs are provided?

LGM will search LinkedIn using first name + last name + company.
Depending on your audience, LGM can find up to 80% of LinkedIn URLs.

Note: Why not 100%?

  • If a lead left their company, they won’t be found.

  • The company field must show their current employer for accurate matching.

And if you really don’t have any URL at all? No worries — you can still reach them via email.

Structuring your sequence when enriching from a CSV

If you enrich LinkedIn URLs using a CSV containing first name + last name + company + email, set up your sequence like this:

  • If LGM finds a LinkedIn profile, the sequence will start with LinkedIn, usually followed by emails.

  • If LGM doesn’t find one, the sequence will start directly with email.


Why La Growth Machine does not share contacts between users

Some tools rely on a shared contact database.

La Growth Machine does not do this—and never will.

Here’s why:

  • GDPR compliance: sharing personal data would be problematic

  • Confidentiality: your data should never benefit your competitors

  • Transparency: it’s easier to explain to a prospect how their email was obtained (server test, LinkedIn connection, etc.)

This approach may result in a slightly lower enrichment rate compared to less compliant tools, but it is safer, more transparent, and more reliable.

FAQs

Can LGM find a LinkedIn URL with no data at all?

No — at minimum, LGM needs first name, last name, and company.

Why can’t LGM find 100% of LinkedIn URLs?

If a lead changed companies or if the provided data is incorrect, matching becomes impossible.

Can I run campaigns without LinkedIn URLs?

Yes! You can fully run sequences via email.

Does LGM ever share contact data between users?

Never. Each user’s data stays private and isolated for GDPR and competitive reasons.

How does auto-enrichment work in a campaign?

It triggers at the start of your sequence and attempts to retrieve missing LinkedIn URLs before the first step.
