How to Leverage Your Own Network for Intros
You already know more people than you realize, plus everyone they know. Here's how to see the warm paths sitting in your own network to any prospect.
What a warm path looks like in Draftboard: the connector, a 0-100 relationship score, why it's strong, and a one-click intro request.
Step by step
- 1
Install the Chrome extension
It privately maps your professional network. Nobody else has to do a thing.
- 2
Add the targets you want to reach
Paste LinkedIn URLs or upload a list of people or accounts.
- 3
See your warm paths
Draftboard shows every connector in your 1st- and 2nd-degree network who can reach each target, each scored 0-100 by relationship strength.
- 4
Check who can really vouch
Sort by relationship strength so you ask the connector who actually knows the target, not a distant mutual.
- 5
Request the intro
Reach out to your connector with a ready-made ask and track it to a meeting.
What you'll have at the end
A live map of who in your own network can introduce you to the people you want to meet.
