LinkedIn

Connect your LinkedIn account and Doers Movement can send connection requests and messages from it, bring your replies back into the CRM, and keep track of who you're actually connected to.

LinkedIn outreach is enabled per team. If you can't connect an account yet, contact our sales team and we'll switch it on.

Two things are true of all of it, and they matter more than any feature below:

  • Nothing goes out without you approving it. Every message is a draft until you say so.
  • Everything is deliberately slow. Sending is spread across the day, inside limits you set. That is not a delay to work around — it is the point.

What you get​

What happens
Your network in the CRMBring your existing LinkedIn connections in as contacts, and follow the import on the Leads Extractor page
Connection requestsAsk for a connection from the contact, and it goes out paced
MessagesReach the people you're connected to, on the channel they actually read
Replies come backTheir answers land on the contact automatically — nothing to copy over
Honest connection statusEach teammate sees their own real relationship with a contact

Why it's paced​

LinkedIn watches for accounts that behave like software. Bursts of requests, messages at 3am, the same rhythm every day — these are what get an account restricted, and a restricted account is far worse than a slow one.

So Doers Movement sends a few at a time, inside your working hours, with an uneven gap between them. When you queue something, you'll be told roughly when it will go — often a few minutes away, sometimes later in the day.

caution

If you queue a message and it doesn't appear on LinkedIn immediately, that is the system working. Check the contact: it'll tell you when it's due.

What's automatic and what isn't​

AutomaticYours to decide
Sending queued requests at a safe paceWhether to request a connection at all
Bringing replies into the CRMEvery word of every message
Noticing when someone acceptsWho gets contacted, and when to stop
Keeping your daily countYour daily limits

When LinkedIn is used instead of email​

You rank the channels yourself, and LinkedIn is skipped for anyone you're not connected to yet — so a request that hasn't been accepted never stalls your outreach. See Channels.

Not the same as the Leads Extractor​

Two different jobs that both involve LinkedIn:

  • The Leads Extractor pulls people out of other people's public posts. It doesn't need your account connected.
  • Importing your connections brings in your own network. That needs your account connected.
