Follow-up sequence
The planned messages after the first touch: classically an invite, an acceptance-gated opener, then two or three spaced follow-ups over 10–14 days.
A follow-up plan should specify why each message is useful, what condition allows it, and when to stop. LinkedBoost stops follow-ups on recorded replies, subject to ingestion and execution timing. A send already dispatched cannot be recalled by a later stop.
In practice
Place an acceptance condition before a connection-only message and define how long you will wait before ending the branch.
What to check
Recorded replies stop follow-ups, but delayed sync or an already dispatched action can affect timing. Inspect the thread when taking over.

- Cadence
- The rhythm of an outreach sequence: how many touches, over how many days, on which channels. Cold LinkedIn cadences typically run 3–5 touches across two weeks.
- Queued vs. sent
- The distinction dashboards blur: queued means the system plans to send; sent means it actually left. Reporting queued as sent is how tools fake momentum.
