In this short tutorial, the presenter demonstrates how to use LinkedIn to locate nonprofit organizations and professionals in Adelaide and how to add them as connections. The walkthrough starts on the desktop, showing how to access the profile menu, enter a search term (e.g., “nonprofits” or a specific organization like “Save the Children”), and then use the secondary filter bar to set the location to Adelaide and optionally filter by connection degree. After applying the filters, the results list all profiles that mention the nonprofit keyword or work for the specified organization in the chosen city. The presenter then recommends switching to the LinkedIn mobile app to send connection requests, noting that the mobile interface provides a convenient “+” button and avoids the desktop’s connection‑request limits. The video ends with a brief sign‑off to the intended recipient, Sally, expressing hope that the instructions were helpful.

Good morning. I just thought I would walk you through some LinkedIn information, particularly as it relates to adding connections or searching for connections, sorry, in your case. So this is just going to be a quick walkthrough on how to add connections and search for connections on LinkedIn. So you just go into LinkedIn, as you can see here, normally. This is the button that you would click to see your profile, view your own profile. To get back to the main LinkedIn feed, you connect to this button here, click this button here, and that's the best place to start to do a search. So we're going to pop in here. I'll just type nonprofits, for example. What typing that, whether it be nonprofits or executives, whatever you type in here, it then gives you this second bar, and this second bar is what we're actually looking for because you want to be able to change location to Adelaide, and then you can hit apply. You can also go in here to add whether you want to find First Connections or second connections. Ultimately, we're not wanting any connections to do a search, we're just wanting to be able to find nonprofit-related businesses in Adelaide. So let me just go back and type in Adelaide and then hit apply. Then that gives us all the different people that have got nonprofits, or the wording nonprofit, listed Within their profile, obviously another way to do that is if you've got nonprofits that you know that you want to deal with, perhaps say SYC or Save the Children. I'll just use that as a quick example. Save the Children. Let's see if that comes up. And this now gives you all of the people that actually work at Save the Children in Adelaide. So that's how you do a quick search on your desktop. So what we suggest is do the search on your desktop and then pick it up on your mobile phone, and that will actually allow you to actually add people in the evenings when you're just sitting in front of the TV. There's There's a little plus button down the side, and you'll be able to add people fairly quickly without having to hit any barriers, connection limit barriers, like you do on a desktop. And then we can start the connection process or the scripting process from there. Awesome. Just wanted to quickly share that with you. Hope that was helpful. Thanks, Sally.
