Connect to LinkedIn using PhantomBuster's browser extension
This automation acts on your behalf on LinkedIn. The safest and most efficient way for the Phantom to connect to your account is by using your session cookie, which you can retrieve using PhantomBuster's browser extension. It's a simple 2-click installation:
If you're operating from another browser, you can find your cookie manually.
Write your invitation and follow-up messages (via LinkedIn NOT in Sales Navigator)
You can include a custom invitation message when sending connection requests. This helps make your outreach feel more personal.
Important: While this automation uses Sales Navigator for the search, all messages are sent via standard LinkedIn, not through the Sales Navigator inbox.
If you want your outreach to stay within Sales Navigator, we recommend setting it up manually using:
How it works:
Write your invitation message.
Use placeholders like #firstname, #lastname or #company.
Click the plus icon under the message box to add them automatically.
After someone accepts your connection request, you can send up to 3 follow-up messages, spaced out at time intervals you choose.
Messages are only sent if the recipient doesn’t reply to the previous one.
If someone replies at any point, the automation stops messaging them.
Launch your Flow
Last but not least: turn on your Flow! By default, your Flow is inactive. Simply "Enable" it:
Once you have, it'll launch automatically at the best times with one goal in mind: to process all of your inputs and finish its job as fast as possible.
When it's finished, it will switch back to being inactive again. At this point, all of your data will be available in your results files.
You'll be able to keep track of your Flow's actions as they happen using the Flow's dashboard.
Take note: This Flow will not continuously launch - it will pause when all your inputs have been processed. If you'd like to launch it again with new inputs, simply flip the "Enable" switch again.
