In today’s interconnected business environment, efficiently leveraging professional networks is critical. LinkedIn is the leading platform for professionals, yet its utility diminishes when teams lack visibility into each other's connections. Have you ever tried to share your LinkedIn connections with a colleague or teammate? It’s not easy. LinkedIn doesn’t make it simple — someone has to manually visit your profile, click on your connections, and scroll through them one by one. No filters, no collaboration, no context.
Rolodex addresses this challenge by enabling effortless sharing and management of LinkedIn connections within your team.
Why Share LinkedIn Connections?
Sharing LinkedIn contacts across your team provides strategic advantages:
Generate warm introductions
Coordinate outreach to avoid duplication
Map internal relationships for better collaboration
Align team efforts on key accounts and opportunities
Rolodex centralizes LinkedIn contacts, turning individual connections into collective team assets.

What You Unlock with Rolodex + LinkedIn
Once you've connected your LinkedIn account to Rolodex, the magic really begins. Rolodex automatically imports all your existing LinkedIn connections, and every time you connect with someone new on LinkedIn, they’ll instantly appear in your team’s shared Rolodex workspace. This real-time syncing keeps your team up to date without any manual effort.
Even better, Rolodex works directly on LinkedIn. When you're browsing someone’s LinkedIn profile, simply look for the Rolodex browser extension button in the top-right corner. Clicking it will take you directly to that person's Rolodex profile, where you can view interaction history, see notes from teammates, and understand the full context of the relationship. If the contact doesn’t already exist in Rolodex, we’ll automatically create a new profile for you.
This same functionality applies to LinkedIn company pages. With one click, you can jump to the company’s profile in Rolodex, where your team can collaborate, track engagement, and share notes.
Rolodex also helps you stay in the loop with Title Update Notifications. You’ll be notified when any of your connections changes their job title, allowing you to stay proactive and seize timely opportunities to reach out. LinkedIn can be noisy, but Rolodex filters through the noise to ensure you never miss when someone in your network makes a move.
