You’ll get some followers, usually a few hundred, just by signing up and completing your profile. DealStream’s connection engine will find them for you based on your industry and location. But that’s just the “low hanging fruit”. If you want more followers, do the following:

  • Create interesting posts that people want to read.
  • Invite other members to follow you by sending them direct messages.
  • Share your profile page with friends on social media.
  • Import your address book and invite your contacts to visit your profile page.
  • Put a link to your profile in your email signature.
  • Upgrade to a Pro membership. Pro members are more visible in member searches.
