LinkedIn outreach for founders
For founders who do their own selling. Find the people you want to talk to, send each a short note, follow up once, and get back to building. One account, $29 a month.
Who it's for
You're the one who sells, and your own LinkedIn profile is the account people know. You want a steady handful of new conversations each week, not a sales team's volume.
- You run one LinkedIn account: your own.
- You know who you want to reach: a role, a city, a kind of company.
- You'd rather spend your time on replies than on clicking Connect.
Not a fit for agencies running many client accounts, or teams that need a shared inbox or CRM sync. We don't have those.
An example week
Five steps, using the tools as they work today.
- 1
Find 100 heads of growth in one city
Run a LinkedIn people search for Head of Growth in Bengaluru, paste its link into Search Export and ask for 100 people. That uses 100 of your 300 lead finds this month.

Trim the list
Read through the results and delete anyone who isn't a fit. Every tool works from this list, so a cleaner list means fewer wasted requests.
- 3
Send requests with an AI note
Write two sentences about who you are and why you're reaching out, pick AI notes and Normal pace, and launch Auto Connect. The plan sends up to 20 requests a day, so one run a day for five days covers all 100. That's also the most it sends in any 7 days.

Follow up once
A few days later, run Message Sender with one short message. It checks each person is a first-degree connection and skips anyone who hasn't accepted.

Answer replies yourself
Replies aren't detected, so read your LinkedIn inbox and write back there. Don't send a second automatic message to someone who has already answered.
- Your blurb
- I'm building a small analytics tool for B2B SaaS teams and talking to growth leads about how they measure retention. I'd like to connect with people who own growth.
What the plan covers
One plan, $29 a month, or $20 a month paid yearly. Its 20 requests a day cover the five runs above, and 300 lead finds a month is three searches of that size.
Connection requests stop at 100 in any 7 days. LinkedIn limits most accounts to about 100 invitations a week, and hitting its limit blocks invitations for about a week, so a week like the one above is the most the plan sends.
| Connection requests a day | 20 |
|---|---|
| Connection requests in any 7 days | 100 |
| Messages a day | 30 |
| Likes a day | 50 |
| Lead finds a month | 300 |
The plan connects one LinkedIn account. HeyReach lists $79 per sender and Expandi $99 per seat (public prices, November 2026). Both are built for agencies and teams running many LinkedIn accounts. If you run one account, you pay for one.
Be careful about
- Keep notes short and about the other person, not about what you sell.
- One follow-up is enough. Replies aren't detected, so a second automatic message can land after someone has already answered.
- Check your LinkedIn inbox every day and reply yourself.
- If a run stops on a security check, wait an hour or two before the next one.
- Automation is against LinkedIn's terms. Caps and pacing reduce the risk to your account; they don't remove it.
The safety page explains the caps, pacing and stops in full, and the guide to daily limits and pacing helps you pick settings.
