Filtering leads by location
Target leads in specific countries using the location filter for geographically focused prospecting.
Last updated: 8 August 2026
The location filter lets you focus on leads in specific countries. This is essential for geographically targeted sales efforts.
How it works
Select one or more countries from the dropdown. Results are filtered to show only leads based in those locations.
Location data comes from LinkedIn profiles, based on the location the person has listed.
Country-level filtering
LinkDeal currently supports country-level filtering. You can select:
- United Kingdom
- United States
- Germany
- France
- Australia
- And all other countries in the LinkedIn database
City or region filtering is not yet available.
Post Engagement vs ICP Search
Post Engagement: Location filter narrows results to people in your selected countries who engaged with the posts you searched.
ICP Search: Location can be included in your description ("salespeople in the UK") or applied via the filter. The filter stacks with your description.
Default behaviour
If you selected a country during onboarding, that becomes your default location filter. You can change or remove it at any time.
With no location filter, you see leads from all countries. This may include leads outside your addressable market.
Use cases
Regional sales teams: Filter to your assigned territory.
Time zone considerations: Target countries in time zones that work for your outreach schedule.
Market expansion: Test new geographies by running the same search with different location filters.
Compliance: Some products cannot be sold in certain regions. Filter those out.
Combining with other signals
Location alone does not indicate intent. Combine with:
- Job title to find decision-makers in your region
- Industry to find your vertical in specific countries
- Post Engagement to see location + intent signals together
