Activity Management

This section allows you to manage your outreach schedule and invite manager settings.

  • Time zone: Ensure your time zone aligns with the one displayed on your LinkedIn profile. To update, click the dropdown arrow under "Timezone." Be sure to click on "Apply."
  • Hours: The software completes one task, such as a connection request or message, every 8-12 minutes, staggered within the hours identified on your settings page. There will never be messages and/or connection requests sent outside of these designated hours.
  • Turbo mode: This is an optional feature that should only be utilized if you have a strong LinkedIn account. If turned on, the software will increase it's productivity and complete one task every 4-6 minutes.
  • Work on weekends: This checkbox instructs the software to continue completing tasks on Saturday and Sunday. It is recommended to keep this feature enabled.
  • Invite manager: This indicates the number of outstanding connection requests your account can accommodate at any single point in time. If your account exceeds this preset limit, the software will automatically start withdrawing connection requests. This will happen in batches starting with the oldest outstanding requests first. The invite manager automatically defaults to 1500 which is the recommended setting.

Connector Priority & Activity Manager

This section allows you to manage your weekly communication priorities and activity levels for your connector campaigns. You are able to select your preferred communication methods and set your preferred number of engagements for each method.

To re-arrange communication method priorities, drag them by the handle.

To increase or decrease an activity level, click and drag the bar selector to your preferred limit. Once the limit has been reached within any given week, the next available communication method will be used.

The default communication prioritization is as follows:

  • Regular connection requests: LinkedIn sets a limit of between 100-200 connection requests per week. It is suggested that you keep this bar selector at the max amount of invites, however, you can keep it slightly below the maximum to ensure the ability to still allow for sending manual connection requests each week. For example, keeping the limit at 90 allows you to send an additional ~10 connection requests manually, if needed.
  • Invite by email: This approach expands your connection request capabilities, once a user's standard connection requests have been used. There's no need to do anything to set it up; Simply put, we’ve partnered with top data companies so your connector campaigns can continue sending connection requests using contact's emails, because if you know someone's email that's associated with their LinkedIn profile, LinkedIn allows you to connect with them past your limit. For additional clarification, these connection requests are sent via LinkedIn Direct Messages as normal, not via email.
  • Open InMail: This is a direct message to a prospect outside of your direct network via a Sales Navigator InMail. Additional campaign steps are required for this type of outreach.
  • Group messages: Group messages can be sent to contacts outside of your 1st degree network, as long as you are in the same group. To utilize this feature, it is imperative you join LinkedIn groups that align with your target audience.

Lastly, be sure to scroll down and click the "Update" bar at the bottom to save any changes.

FAQ

Why are the changes to my Settings not updating?

There are several "Update" buttons throughout this page. Be sure you are scrolling down to the bottom of each widget and clicking on "Update" before navigating away from the page.

Why do certain conversations not start with a Connection Message?

‘Invite by Email’ are the most frequently used connection requests and don’t include a personalized Connection Message. In other words, communication starts with the Welcome Message. Based on our data, there is no significant impact of a conversation not starting with a Connection Message.
