You’ll be surprised at how fast they respond to your request. If a person has emailed you with kind words, copy the email and paste it into a LinkedIn recommendation request. You want to make it as easy for them as possible! When a person either says, “Hey you did a great job on that project!” it is entirely acceptable to reply, “Thanks so much! Would you mind if I send you a LinkedIn recommendation request? It would mean a lot to me to have a recommendation from you on my LinkedIn profile!”ĭon’t rely on them to be proactive and just do it for you! Send them the request from within LinkedIn’s recommendation request screen. The person has recommended you in person or via email. Now just in case you are one of those people who isn’t quite certain when to ask for a LinkedIn recommendation, here are my guidelines: When to Ask for a LinkedIn Recommendationġ. Once we do some business together and I am satisfied with your services, then I would be more than happy to recommend you. I’m sending this to ask you for a brief recommendation of my work that I can include in my LinkedIn profile. This is how I gently turned down the one request: Here’s something to remember: If you wouldn’t recommend a person in the real world, there’s no need to recommend them in the cyber world. I found it rather surprising that these strangers would ask me for a recommendation, especially since we have never worked together. Recently I have received a slew of LinkedIn recommendation requests from individuals that I don’t know very well or have never met.
