How To Send Free InMails to Open Profiles

We-Connect helps you automate InMails to certain premium members. These members are called “open profile” members. In other words, you can send messages to open profiles without connecting with them. The messages are sent as free InMails from your LinkedIn account, as in the screenshot below.

This process enables you to reach out to more contacts without waiting for an accepted connection request or worrying about running out of InMail credits.

When importing a list, We-Connect automatically detects users with open profiles, making it simple to reach out to these contacts. You can follow the steps below to send InMails through We-Connect:

Step 1: Save a search in We-Connect (or navigate to your 'Saved Lists' to use a previously saved list).

Step 2: From the 'Saved List' page in the settings menu, select the list you want to use.

​

Step 3: Once your list has loaded, select 'Filters' and choose 'Open Profile' to filter out any contacts to whom you cannot send an InMail.
​

Step 4: Select all contacts and save them as a new list.

You'll be prompted to name your list. In the next step, we will need to find this list, so ensure to choose a name you'll remember.

Step 5: Create a new campaign using your newly saved list.

Step 6: Create your sequence, including an InMail step.

Note: We recommend only sending InMails to 2nd or 3rd-degree connections. For 1st-degree connections, send them a normal message.

​Step 7: Finish settings up your campaign, choosing an action limit and any advanced filters.

Step 8: Review and launch your campaign (or schedule it for a later date).
