Connection Request
A LinkedIn invitation sent to another user to join your professional network, often accompanied by an optional short note to introduce yourself or explain the reason for connecting.
A connection request is the invitation you send on LinkedIn to add another member to your network. It typically appears as a one-off message that the recipient can accept, ignore, or decline, and it can include a brief personalized note to explain why you want to connect.
For LinkedIn creators, connection requests matter because they are the primary way to convert passive viewers into direct contacts. Accepted requests expand your reach, enable private messaging, and create opportunities for collaboration, feedback, and audience growth.
Top Voice helps creators handle connection requests more effectively by providing a central place to manage outgoing invites and incoming responses. The platform supports personalization and follow-up workflows so creators can turn initial invites into meaningful conversations without losing track of pending or accepted requests.
Example usage
After seeing a thoughtful comment on her article, Priya sends a connection request with a short note referencing the post; when it’s accepted she follows up with a message proposing a brief call to exchange ideas.
