Configuring working hours
You can configure the sender's working hours you need to navigating to the LinkedIn account's tab, finding the LinkedIn sender, and clicking on the three dots menu displayed at the end of the account.
Here's a detailed video tutorial that can guide you through the process.
By clicking on the three dots menu you need to select the option Configure Working hours.
New setting window will appear that will allow to configure both the time zone and working hours.
Set the timezone, by selecting the desired time zone from the dropdown menu.
While for the working hours, you can pick the days by selecting the boxes next to the day of the week and then adjust the hours for that day, when you want your LinkedIn sender to be operating. Make sure you are reaching out to your leads in a timezone where they'll mostly like to receive the message.
Another thing to consider is that HeyReach will always respect the weekly limit that LinkedIn imposes on all of the actions, so if you are reaching out 7/7 days in the week, a fewer number of connection requests will be executed (and spread across the 7 days), compared to operating Monday to Friday.
We've seen that Mon-Fri schedule works the best for reaching out to typical B2B people, or people who are not founders/entrepreneurs. Also, entrepreneurs and C-level executives respond mostly on the weekends.
Make sure working hours are spread through the day, if you want a higher number of daily actions to be delivered. If you put only 2-3 hours as a LinkedIn sender's working time, the actions won't be just shot in those 2-3 hours, as we have internal limit between each of them to mimic human behavior and make sure your LinkedIn accounts are safe.
Another thing to consider is the timezone. The senders will start sending in the timezone that's set for them (which might be different from yours!). So, if you see that your campaign is not starting immediately - don't panic; check the timezones of your senders.
The LinkedIn senders that are assigned to a single campaign (multiple senders on one campaign), should be set to operate in the same timezone and same working hours - for the most optimal results.
If you have LinkedIn senders running in completely different timezones, you might not meet your desired number of actions sent per day, so keep in mind that you optimize this.
π« One of the upcoming features for HeyReach is removing the working hours per LinkedIn sender, and allowing you to configure them by a campaign. Stay tuned.
