Maximize the Free Trial

While LinkedIn Sales Navigator’s free trial lasts only 30 days, you can extend its value by strategically creating multiple accounts. After each trial ends, create a new account and use Konnector.ai to extract fresh leads. For teams, stagger the trials across SDRs to stretch usage over several months, generating leads for an extended period. With Konnector, you only need one Sales Navigator account per team, saving $150 per team member monthly. However, remember to stay within LinkedIn’s terms by using different legit contact information, avoiding mass account creation, and limiting daily activity to prevent any account penalties.

Now that you know how to maximize your free trial, let’s compare the two lead extraction methods to see which suits your workflow best.

Which method is better- Extension or URL?


When comparing the methods for using Konnector.ai with and without the extension, it’s essential to understand the unique benefits of the Konnector Extension. If you’re using Google Chrome, the extension allows you to scrape up to 2,500 leads daily, directly from Sales Navigator. This method is significantly faster and more efficient because it automates the process in bulk, streamlining the workflow with just a few clicks.

However, for those who prefer not to use Google Chrome or are working on different browsers, you can still extract leads through the URL-based method discussed in this guide. While this method is equally effective in organizing your leads, the Konnector Extension offers a higher degree of speed and convenience, allowing you to maximize your lead generation efforts in less time.
