How to Get Warm Intros to Conference Attendees
You have a conference or event coming up and a list of people you'd love to meet. Cold-approaching them on the floor is a coin flip. Here's how to arrive already introduced.

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
Get the attendee or speaker list
Grab the LinkedIn URLs of the people you want to meet, or the event's attendee/speaker export.
- 2
Add them as Targets
Paste the URLs or upload the list in Draftboard. No need to research each one by hand.
- 3
Let Draftboard map the paths
Draftboard scans your network and ranks the warm paths to each attendee by real relationship strength.
- 4
See who in your network has the closest relationship
See who in your network has the closest relationship to the target, rather than just someone who is a random mutual connection.
- 5
Request the intros before the event
Send the intro requests a week out, so you walk in with meetings already warm instead of chasing badges.
What you'll have at the end
A short list of pre-warmed meetings for the event, each through someone the attendee already trusts.
Try it on your own list
Warm intros convert around 30-40% where cold outreach lands under 1%. Add your targets and see the warm paths you already have. Free to start, no credit card.
