1. 00:00What Sales Navigator gives you

   Sales Navigator tells you who to reach. Here's how to get from that list to a verified address. Start with LinkedIn's own words. Sales Navigator has no CSV or XLS export for leads and accounts. Email isn't a standard field either. A lead page shows contact details if the member added them, or if your team entered them. LinkedIn explains why. So here's what you're working with. You get the person, their role, their company, and signals like a recent job change. You don't get an export, or an email for every lead.

2. 00:35The CRM route

   With Advanced Plus, you get CRM Sync, and you can create a CRM record right from a lead page. LinkedIn passes name, title and company. Email depends on the member's settings. So expect blanks. So email takes four steps. Pick the lead in Sales Navigator. Get the address from a source you're allowed to use, like your own CRM. Verify it. Then send. We don't cover scraping here. LinkedIn's help center warns against extensions like these, and unusual activity can get your features restricted.

3. 01:07Spot stale addresses

   Sales Navigator does help with one thing: it shows when people move. A lead page can surface a recent job change. If your CRM still holds the old work address, that mailbox may be gone. On Advanced Plus with CRM Sync, data validation goes further. When LinkedIn determines a contact has left, it writes a Not at Company flag to the record. Records update every 24 hours. Treat that flag as a reason to verify.

4. 01:32Verify the list

   Now pull the addresses into one CSV, from your CRM or your own records. That file goes to BillionVerify before any sending tool sees it. Drop the CSV into File List Verify. It runs in the background, so you can close the tab and wait for our email. These counts come from sample lists, not LinkedIn data. Yours will look different. Pick a status, and export that group. Send to valid. Put catch-all in a small, separate batch. Write role addresses for a shared inbox. Hold back unknown. Leave out disposable. And invalid addresses can move to InMail.

5. 02:09When an address fails

   A failed address doesn't end the lead. InMail doesn't need an email at all. Your download keeps every column you uploaded, so you can see exactly who to message. Verification runs on credits. Each result takes one, catch-all and role too. Unknown, bad syntax and disposable don't. File uploads require a paid account, which any credit purchase unlocks.
