Steps:

Bardeen automates the process of capturing valuable business insights from LinkedIn profiles and storing them for analysis in Google Sheets. For sales prospecting and data sourcing research, quick access to a company's size can inform your outreach strategy. This playbook specifically targets LinkedIn profiles to extract current company headcount, providing a clearer picture of potential clients or partnership opportunities.

Here's how this workflow saves a LinkedIn profile’s current company headcount to Google Sheets:

  • Step 1: Scrape LinkedIn Profile - Bardeen uses its Scraper to extract data from a LinkedIn profile page in the background, including links to the current company's page.
  • Step 2: Prepare company page link - The URL to the company's LinkedIn page is prepared by merging the scraped link with the necessary text structure for further scraping.
  • Step 3: Scrape Company About Page - The Scraper is used again to extract data from the company's About page on LinkedIn, which includes the headcount information.
  • Step 4: Extract headcount - The string containing the headcount is split to isolate the specific number of employees.
  • Step 5: Select headcount data - The exact headcount number is selected from the array of text obtained in the previous step for inclusion in the Google Sheet.
  • Step 6: Add to Google Sheets - The company's name, headcount, and LinkedIn URL are added to a new row in your specified Google Sheets spreadsheet.
