Start earning from your LinkedIn account

Three minutes to apply. Free, no obligation, and we never ask you for payment at any stage — money only moves toward you. You hear back within three business days.

What this form does

It sends your details to a person, not to an automated scoring system. We read your profile, check it against what clients are actually asking for right now, and call or WhatsApp you to talk it through. Nothing is agreed on this page, no money changes hands in either direction at this stage, and you can say no at any point. Before you apply, please read our Terms — sections 4 and 5 explain the LinkedIn User Agreement conflict and what the risks are.

Thanks, your application is in. Someone from our team will call or WhatsApp you within three business days, on the number you gave, so please look out for an unfamiliar number. Nothing is agreed until we have spoken. Before you share anything on that call, read how to check it is really us.

Not sure which? Payout methods compared — speed, cost and how much setup each one needs. You can change this at onboarding.

Before you tick the boxes

Do I hand over my password?

You grant access through our managed session system rather than sending a password by email, and you change your password when the engagement ends. Our team signs in and operates the account directly — that is what sending outreach under your name requires, and we are not going to describe it as anything less. Two-step verification stays on a phone you hold, and you can end the session yourself at any time from LinkedIn's own Where you're signed in screen. If a sign-in later asks for a code, we ask you for it — it will only ever be a LinkedIn code, never a code for your email, your bank or any other service. How access is handled.

What happens if LinkedIn restricts my account?

Two outcomes are realistic. A temporary restriction is the common one: LinkedIn locks the account and asks for identity verification, and it usually lifts once you complete that. Permanent closure is less common, but it happens, and it takes your accumulated network with it. If we see a warning signal we halt activity the same day and tell you, and the month in progress is paid in full. The measures we take to reduce the chance are in section 6 of the Terms. They reduce risk. They do not remove it, the risk rests with you, and we do not indemnify you against losing the account or the connections in it. If your LinkedIn profile is how you find work or clients, our advice is not to apply. The full answer, including what you do and do not get.

Will my employer find out?

That is a question for your contract, not for us. Many employment agreements restrict outside commercial use of your professional identity, and some carry a moonlighting clause. Read yours before you apply — we cannot advise you on it, and for some employers it plainly matters. What you can control is reach: at onboarding you give us a blocklist covering your employer, its competitors and its named accounts. It is written into your agreement, enforced throughout, and you can add to it at any time. The employer question in full.

Free · we never ask you for payment · you approve every campaign · reply within three business days

We call or WhatsApp you before anything is agreed. You're free to decline. Renting out account access conflicts with LinkedIn's User Agreement and your account can be restricted — read what that means before you send this.

What happens after you apply

  1. A person reads it. Every application is reviewed by a specialist against current client demand. There is no automated scoring and no instant decision screen.
  2. We call or WhatsApp you. On the number you gave, often from a number you will not recognise. We go through your profile, your employer situation and anything you want blocked. Check it is us before you share anything — the next section says how.
  3. You get one figure. If your account is a fit, we quote a single fixed monthly amount in USD for your account — not a range. If it is not a fit, we tell you that instead, and we will say why.
  4. You set the rules, then decide. Blocklist, approval preferences and the written agreement all come before any campaign starts. You can decline at any point up to signing, and stop afterwards with 30 days' notice once the initial three-month term is done.

How to check it is really us

We ask you to expect a call from a number you do not recognise, and later on we ask you to pass us LinkedIn verification codes. That is exactly the shape of a scam, so here is how to tell the difference. These are rules we hold ourselves to, not advice:

  • We never ask you for money, at any stage. No fee, no deposit, no "verification charge", no refundable anything. If someone claiming to be ExtraProfile asks you to pay, it is not us — stop and report it.
  • We only ever ask for a LinkedIn verification code. Never a code for your email, your bank, or any other service. Anyone asking for one of those is not us, whatever they say about why they need it.
  • We never ask for your password in a chat or an email. Access is set up with you on the onboarding call, described on the safety page.
  • Email from us only ever comes from an @extraprofile.com address. Check the part after the @ carefully — look-alike domains are the usual trick.
  • If anything does not match, hang up. Email info@extraprofile.com from the address you applied with and ask whether that call was us. Nothing on our side is time-critical, so there is never a cost to checking first — and anyone pressuring you to skip that step is telling you what they are.

Read these before you send it

Two things are worth ten minutes of your time first. What actually happens to your account sets out what we do, what we never do, and the restriction risk in plain language. Our Terms carry the same disclosure formally, in sections 4 and 5.

If you would rather start with the whole picture in one place, our guide to earning from a LinkedIn profile covers how the arrangement works, what it pays and what it costs you, end to end.

If you want to know whether your situation fits at all, the honest answer differs by person: students and freshers, working professionals, freelancers and consultants, job seekers and career switchers and retired professionals each face a different trade-off.
