How to export sales navigator lists to your CRM

LinkedIn Sales Navigator is hands-down the best tool for BDRs looking for top-quality leads. LinkedIn boasts a network of over 900 million users, giving you access to an enormous database of professional profiles.

Sales Navigator makes this even better by allowing you to narrow your search with specific filters. Whether you’re targeting by company size, industry, job function, or seniority, LinkedIn helps you pinpoint leads that match your Ideal Customer Profile (ICP). With such precise targeting, you can focus your time and energy on the leads that are most likely to convert.

Manually Finding Email Addresses Taking Too Much Time?

So, you’ve built your lead list on Sales Navigator. Now comes the tough part—exporting the list and finding the email addresses for all those contacts. If you’ve ever tried doing this manually, you know how long it can take. You could check their profile or their company’s website, but most likely, you’re using an email finder tool like Apollo or RocketReach. Even then, those tools often return only a 50-60% success rate, leaving you to fill in the gaps with more time-consuming searches.

No wonder 90% of sales teams end up using multiple tools to find contact details. But is that really necessary?

Surfe’s Intelligent Email Finder Achieves a 93% Success Rate

With Surfe, the answer is no. You only need one tool to find professional, verified email addresses—and our users report a 93% success rate. Here’s why.

Surfe isn’t your typical email finder. It’s an intelligent system that combines the top email search tools into one. You install Surfe as a Chrome extension on LinkedIn, and when you want to find an email, it searches across multiple databases (like Apollo, RocketReach, Dropcontact, Hunter, and PeopleDataLabs) without you leaving LinkedIn. No more hopping between tools or manually verifying emails.

But we don’t stop there. Every email Surfe finds is validated through ZeroBounce, ensuring it’s a legitimate, deliverable email address. That means no more bounced emails or spam-folder nightmares—just reliable communication with your prospects.
