I'm curious to hear from B2B sales teams that have started using LinkedIn automation software. Has it truly improved your outreach results, or has it mainly increased the number of connection requests and messages your team sends?
We have been looking at ways to reduce the manual work involved in LinkedIn prospecting. Sales reps can spend a surprising amount of time researching profiles, copying contact details, sending connection requests, and checking who needs a follow-up. Automating those steps makes sense, but I wouldn't want it to come at the cost of message quality or personalization.
The results I would personally care about are:
I found this guide helpful for thinking through the workflow, especially how targeting, messaging, follow-ups, and human reply handling should work together:

I have also been reviewing SalesTarget.ai's LinkedIn outreach platform. It appears to combine lead discovery, LinkedIn messaging, email outreach, calling, and CRM tracking rather than treating LinkedIn automation as a separate activity:

My current view is that LinkedIn automation is useful when it handles repetitive execution, such as scheduling, follow-up reminders, contact updates, and sequence management. Reps should still control account selection, message context, objections, and active sales conversations.
For teams already using LinkedIn automation software:
Has it improved reply rates and booked meetings?
Which tasks have you automated successfully, and which ones do you still keep manual?
Have you seen better pipeline results, or has automation mainly increased outreach volume?

The results I would personally care about are:
- More replies from relevant decision-makers
- Fewer missed follow-ups
- Faster responses when a prospect shows interest
- Better coordination between LinkedIn and email outreach
- Less manual CRM data entry
- More qualified meetings, not just more activity
