EngageFast looks in two places: My audience and Outside my network. In your lists, the ring around each photo tells you where a lead comes from: orange for your audience, blue for outside your network.
My audience
The people who have already engaged with you on LinkedIn:
- they commented on your posts, or replied to your comments;
- they reacted to your posts;
- they sent you a connection request, or accepted yours;
- they viewed your profile.
They already know you a little, so they reply more often.
Some are already connected to you (1st degree), others are not. Your agent writes straight to your connections. The others first get an invitation, and the first message only goes out once they accept. If someone sent you a connection request, your agent accepts it, then writes to them.
Outside my network
The people who don't know you yet, but are active on the topics of your market:
- they engaged with posts about your keywords;
- they engaged with the posts of the creators or competitors you follow;
- if you target a city or a region: the people of your target who live there and were active on LinkedIn in the last 30 days.
They are usually not connected to you: your agent invites them first, then writes once they accept.
You choose your keywords and creators in AI Agent, Targeting. Once activated, your agent reads these sources on its own during its working hours. To start a search now, click Run a lead scan in the panel, or Ask the agent to scan in Leads.
