The LinkedIn outreach setup checklist
Everything to tick off before your first invitation goes out, and every week after. Where a box has a number, it comes from LinkedIn's Help pages, a named public benchmark or ZenMode's own settings, and it says which.
Free. We'll email you the PDF. Questions about the data: hello@zen-mode.io.

What's inside
- Account prep and profile: what LinkedIn documents for free, Premium and Sales Navigator, and what it doesn't
- A Sales Navigator list you could actually finish, sized to the weekly pace you plan
- The connection note: inside LinkedIn's 200-character limit, and about them
- Follow-ups and pacing: three follow-ups, about three days apart
- Five numbers to check every Friday, and a table of when to pause
How it was put together
