LinkedIn is the gold standard for prospecting, but managing your leads can be a nightmare. Spreadsheets are messy, and traditional CRMs can be expensive and complex.
Enter Notion. With its flexible databases, Notion is the perfect lightweight CRM for freelancers, agencies, and sales teams. But there's one problem: manual data entry.
Copy-pasting names, headlines, URLs, and trying to find emails manually is a huge time sink.
In this guide, we'll show you how to automate this entire process using SaveKontact.
Why Use Notion as a CRM?
- Flexibility: Customize properties to fit your exact sales process.
- Collaboration: Tag team members, add comments, and manage tasks in one place.
- Cost: If you're already using Notion, it's effectively free.
The Problem with Manual Entry
Let's say you find a perfect prospect on LinkedIn. To add them to Notion manually, you have to:
- Create a new page in your Notion database.
- Copy their Name.
- Copy their Headline.
- Copy their LinkedIn URL.
- Copy their Company Name.
- Look for their email (good luck).
That's 2-3 minutes per lead. If you're prospecting 50 people a day, that's 2.5 hours wasted.
The Solution: SaveKontact
SaveKontact automates this entire workflow. It lives in your browser sidebar and enriches profiles with a single click.
Step 1: Install the SaveKontact Extension
Add the extension to Chrome. It's lightweight and secure.
Step 2: Connect Your Notion Workspace
In the SaveKontact dashboard, go to Integrations and authenticate with Notion. Select the database you want to use as your CRM.
Step 3: Map Your Fields
Tell SaveKontact which LinkedIn data points correspond to your Notion properties.

Step 4: Start Prospecting
Go to any LinkedIn profile. Open the SaveKontact sidebar. Click "Save & Enrich".
