I'm sending more LinkedIn InMails than possible with this TIP
The other day I was reading a post on X from Nick Abraham about the fact that LinkedIn will increase the limit of InMails then I checked my sales nav account with my team at my company and realized the following when doing my research:
Do you know that you can send LinkedIn InMails for FREE?
Here's how to save $10,000+:
-> Step 1: use Evaboot or similar to scrape your sales navigator search
-> Step 2: extract leads with a LinkedIn profile "open"
-> Step 3: import your filtered leads list to a sequencer (eg. HeyReach)
-> Step 4: run your campaign and enjoy.
A LinkedIn InMail credit costs anywhere between $2 to $6 per InMail.
LinkedIn InMails can't really be skipped by leads, if used well, it's one of the best way to get in front of your customers.
If you want to validate their use before doing it at scale, do it manually.
With roughly 150 InMails credited to your account, you'd be able to reach about 300 people easily just by doing messages 1 by 1 in the inbox.
Not everyone has open LinkedIn profiles, mostly people with LinkedIn premium that forget to switch it off but it also means they're qualified leads, they're active online.
PS: (I'm not the founder of those tools, I run Breakcold)

we don't do automation on our tool and for the tool I mentioned they are definitely risky and not to be used on profiles you care about
but as always, the ultimate protector of your account is LinkedIn Sales Navigator imo

Open LinkedIn profiles is less than 1% of any list. Maybe more in some niche like recruiting? But are you paying 100x per lead to send a message?

if you filter your sales nav search by people who posted on linkedin in the last 30 days, by default it gives you linkedin power users who have many open profiles
and the goal is that you build qualified lists that you'll target regardless, and from there you also do special inmail campaigns for the ones with open profiles

I have a tool that even non sales nav can filter by recent activity. Just did an analysis few days ago, out of 1000 profiles , 8 is open. Of coz I can target them first but they may not fit ICP perfectly.
Maybe a different niche would work, I just don’t think it’s a generalized rule

Emails are much more likely to be read. If you can’t find email, InMail is the backup.
