One of the best ways to raise your Klout score is to connect and engage with people you already know. The easiest ways to do this – but most often overlooked – is to connect your social networks with your email database.
Although this can be a bit time consuming and tedious, it is well worth the effort.
Most of the social media platforms allows you to import a file with your contacts and send out an automatic invite. Some of these procedures are simple. Sometimes you will need to import a CSV file – Comma-Separated Values – see the link at the bottom of this post for easy instructions on importing CSV from Outlook* or Gmail.** . Although it might sound a bit intimidating, it is actually quite easy.
Facebook Personal Profile – Invite Friends
Facebook Page – Invite FANS/LIKES
Twitter – Add Followers from various accounts or import CSV
Linkedin – Add Connections – Choose Contacts > Add Contacts
*Create a CSV file from OUTLOOK
This post does a great job of explaining this process.
