TIKT finds your leads among the people who react to and comment on the posts of the profiles you follow. Choosing those profiles well is what matters most.

Who to follow

Follow profiles whose audience looks like your buyers:
  • Creators your buyers follow: the voices of your market, who post often and get comments from the people you sell to.
  • Your competitors: their founders, their sales leaders, their company’s people who post.
  • Yourself, and your teammates who post: anyone engaging with you already knows you.
A profile that posts every week brings far more people than a large one that rarely posts. Check before you track: see Preview a profile before you track it.

Add a profile

  1. Open the Watchlist page.
  2. Paste the profile’s LinkedIn address and click Preview.
  3. Read its activity, pick Who is this to you? (for example Competitor or Influencer), then click Track.
New posts are collected from now on: TIKT doesn’t collect a profile’s past posts. To read the audience of a post that already exists, add it on the Posts page. See Analyze any post on demand.

How many profiles you can follow

Your plan includes a number of profiles you can follow: 20 during the free trial, 25 on the 5,000-credit plan, 35 on 10,000, 50 on 20,000, 75 on 50,000 and 100 on 100,000. Paused profiles don’t count. The Profiles tile of the Watchlist shows how many you follow. When you reach it, Preview, Resume and Restore are greyed out: upgrade your plan on the Billing page, or pause or remove a profile. To switch to a smaller plan, follow no more profiles than it includes first.

Pause, remove, restore

On each card of the Watchlist:
  • Pause stops collecting: new posts are still listed, but nothing is collected and no credit is used. Resume starts again from now. You can pause up to 5 profiles; paused profiles don’t count toward the profiles your plan includes.
  • Remove stops tracking. History is kept: find the profile under Removed and click Restore to track it again. Only posts published from then on are collected.

The colleagues of a profile

People who currently work at the company of a profile you follow are its colleagues: by default, they are not charged and stay out of your leads. On the Watchlist page, click a profile to open its panel: the line Colleagues at its company has a switch, on by default; turn it off to treat them like any other engager. See Exclude companies and colleagues.
