5 Funny LinkedIn Connection Requests Inspiration

We all know the standard LinkedIn connection request message: “I’d like to add you to my professional network.” But sometimes, people like to get creative with their request messages.

Here are the top 5 funny LinkedIn connection request messages that I’ve received:

1. “I’m pretty sure we’re related”

2. “I’ve been stalking your profile and I think we would make great connection” 

3. “I’m sorry, I thought you were someone else” 

4. “I saw you were connected to my ex-girlfriend and I thought you might be able to introduce me”

5. “I’m just trying to reach my goal of 1,000 connections”
