On any profile, when you click on \u201cConnect\u201d to add them to your network, you\u2019ll see a message as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large  mar-b-hlf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"569\" height=\"236\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rbcroyalbank.com\/en-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2025\/01\/Linkedin-connection-request-EN.png?quality=80&amp;w=569\" alt=\"Linkedin connection request \" class=\"wp-image-92061\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rbcroyalbank.com\/en-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2025\/01\/Linkedin-connection-request-EN.png 569w, https:\/\/www.rbcroyalbank.com\/en-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2025\/01\/Linkedin-connection-request-EN.png?resize=300,124 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 569px) 100vw, 569px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You should always add a note to your connection request, unless you are connecting with a person you know extremely well in real life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve met the person in real life, your connection request should remind the person of the circumstances of that meeting, so they can place you. If you are connecting with a person you haven\u2019t met in real life, your message must make a case for why the person should accept your connection request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What should you write in a LinkedIn connection request?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While it is very easy (and tempting) to send the connection request without customizing it, adding a note will greatly increase the likelihood of your request being accepted. Personalization can help you start meaningful conversations and create memorable first impressions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you decide to send your connection request without a note, your recipient sees something along the lines of&nbsp;<em>\u201cI\u2019d like to join your network.\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;This doesn\u2019t provide any context as to who you are or why you want to connect and may negatively impact how many connections you are able to make.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Personalization can help you start meaningful conversations and create memorable first impressions. Notes added to connection requests have a 300-character limit, so keep your message brief and to the point. Get creative and carefully choose what you want to say. Give them a reason to connect with you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tips to customize LinkedIn connection request messages<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few tips to help you customize the introduction note effectively:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group mar-b-hlf has-light-grey-background-color has-background is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tip:<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Only connect with people whom you know or want to know. Sending generic requests to random people on LinkedIn can backfire. If enough people who receive your connection request indicate that they don\u2019t know you, then you could be banned from Linkedin.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Introduce yourself<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Always include a quick introduction (no more than a line or two) about who you are and what you do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mention how you found them<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s worthwhile to mention how you came across their profile.
