Manage LinkedIn outreach sequences with Linked API and Google Sheets

How it works

1. Connection phase – Sends connection requests to leads with status NEW, respects daily limits 2. Monitoring – Checks if connections were accepted, expired, or declined 3. Messaging – Sends your pre-written messages (up to 3) after connection is accepted 4. Follow-up – Automatically follows up if no reply, marks leads as NORESPONSE after timeout 5. Tracking – All statuses and timestamps are saved to Google Sheets
