πŸ—οΈ The platform provides multiple automation types that streamline outreach workflows across LinkedIn and email. Understanding these options helps users choose the right automation for their objective.

⚠️ Important: Access to some automation types depends on the user’s LinkedIn subscription level.

Connection Request Automations

  1. Send a connection request to prospects based on a LinkedIn search or uploaded list.

  2. Add follow-up sequences after an accepted connection, including personalised messages and attachments.

InMail Automations

  1. Send InMails to prospects using LinkedIn Recruiter or Sales Navigator.

  2. Build separate outcomes for accepted, replied, declined, or pending InMails.

First-Degree (Existing Connections) Automations

  1. Target people who are already connected.

  2. Add profile views, messages and follow-ups without sending a connection request.

Email Automations

  1. Add email steps to any automation once users connect Gmail or Microsoft 365.

  2. Use email for final outreach steps when LinkedIn responses cannot be detected.

Dynamic List Automations

  1. Automatically add new profiles from a LinkedIn pipeline, leads list, or saved search every day. The consultant needs to be adding these profiles to LinkedIn

  2. Keep automations running continuously as long as new leads are added.


πŸ’‘ Best Practices

  • Select the automation type that best aligns with prospecting goals.
