How this works
Pick your tab below based on whether you have your LinkedIn export. The first two prompts differ โ after that, every prompt is identical regardless of which tab you're in.
Keep this guide open in one tab. Keep Claude or Cowork open in another. Angela will walk through all three use cases live โ follow along for the one that applies to you and use the others as reference later.

Start here. Tell Claude what you're working toward, then type your top 20โ30 contacts directly into the chat. No export needed โ this gives Claude everything it needs to run every prompt that follows.
Format for your contacts: Name | Company | Title | How I know them. Aim for 20โ30. Quality matters more than quantity.

Don't sort by tier yet. First, have Claude pull the people who are actually relevant to your goal โ then you'll score them in the next step.

This is where it gets real. Instead of guessing tiers based on awkwardness alone, you're scoring each contact across five dimensions. Claude handles what the data shows โ you fill in what only you know.
| # | Dimension | Who scores it | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Relevance | Claude | How directly do they connect to your stated goal? |
| 2 | Influence | Claude | How much pull do they have? Seniority, title, role. |
| 3 | Network Multiplier | Claude | Do they know a lot of the right people? |
| 4 | Relationship Warmth | You | How warm is this relationship really? |
| 5 | Reciprocity | You | Have you invested in this relationship? |

Uses your composite scores to find the highest-value people for a job search or career transition โ and flags the tricky cases (high influence but low warmth, high warmth but low relevance).

Four separate analyses โ one per contact type. Claude looks for different signals for each category and writes outreach calibrated to warmth score.

This one applies to everyone regardless of use case. A personal board of advisors isn't a formal thing โ it's a small group of people who give you honest perspective, open doors, and advocate for you. Claude finds candidates for four distinct archetypes.
Don't ask anyone to "be your advisor." That's too formal and transactional. Make a specific ask that starts the relationship naturally.

Run this before you upload anything. Setting context first means every analysis that follows will be filtered through your actual goal โ not generic LinkedIn advice.

In Cowork: Upload Connections.csv to your workspace folder โ Claude reads it directly, no pasting needed. In Claude.ai: Open the CSV, select all, paste into the chat window before sending this prompt.
Have Messages.csv too? If you downloaded the full LinkedIn export, upload or paste Messages.csv alongside Connections.csv. It tells Claude who you've actually talked to โ a much stronger relationship signal than guessing from titles alone.

- Goals clearly stated to Claude before any analysis
- 15โ20 contacts surfaced and scored across all 5 dimensions
- Tier 1 contacts identified with composite scores
- At least 3 outreach messages drafted and ready to send
- Content resonance analysis done โ know what to post this week
- Personal board candidates identified (even just 1โ2 is a win)
- One message sent or scheduled before you close your laptop
Next week โ Event 4: Content System. The content resonance analysis you just ran is your brief. Next session we build the full workflow: idea to published LinkedIn post in under 20 minutes. May 20. See you there.
