LinkedIn buying intent: talk to people who already describe your solution
Some of your best prospects are already explaining their problem in public. This hunter finds LinkedIn posts where people describe the pain you solve and turns the authors into warm leads for your team.
What is a buying-intent post?
A buying-intent post is a public post in which a person describes a problem, asks for recommendations or compares tools. It shows active interest, which makes it one of the warmest starting points for a sales conversation.
People do not wait for vendors to find them. They ask their network: which tool do you use for this, how do you handle that, is there a better way. Those posts are open invitations to help.
The LinkedIn buying intent hunter reads fresh posts around the topics that matter to your product and keeps the ones written by potential customers. The author becomes a contact, with the post as the reason to reach out.
For your team this means fewer cold messages and more replies, because the first line can refer to something the person said in public. It is social selling with the research done for you.

Questions about LinkedIn buying intent
What is buying intent on LinkedIn?
Buying intent on LinkedIn is any public sign that a person is looking for a solution: asking for recommendations, describing a pain or comparing tools. It is a stronger signal than a job title alone.
Is it allowed to contact people who post publicly?
The hunter only reads public posts. Your team decides how and when to reach out, and the first message refers to the public post, which keeps the contact relevant and respectful.
How is this different from LinkedIn engagement?
This hunter finds the people who write the posts. The LinkedIn engagement hunter finds the people who react to and comment on such posts.
Does it work for niche topics?
Yes. Topics come from your ideal customer profile and can be edited, so the hunter looks for the exact problems your product solves.
How does my team use these leads?
Each lead arrives with the post that triggered it, so the first message can start from what the person already said.
Does Vendo AI replace my sales team?
No. Vendo AI helps your sales team. It takes over research and first drafts so your people can spend their time on real conversations. You decide who is contacted and what is sent.
