Streamlining Lead Connection and Messaging with Clay AI

I’m using Clay to find personalised leads and i use Clay Ai to write me a intro message (after finding a key issue with their website). BUT…. I am having to manually then connect with them and send them the message. Ideally I’d love a system where it just sends a connect request and I just send message once, they have accepted. But I am having to manually check if they have connected (and it’s a time consuming process). Any ideas?

    We have a template that can help automate your LinkedIn connection request process. Here's how it works: 1. Copy our "Automate LinkedIn connection request messages" template. 2. Paste LinkedIn profile URLs of your leads into the first column of the template. 3. Clay will automatically find work emails and generate personalized connection request messages referencing recent posts. This template increases connection acceptance rates by providing validated work emails and tailored messages. For further customization, you can edit column 16 to modify the message prompt. If you need more assistance with this process, you can ask for help in our Slack community or schedule time with a Clay expert.

    I understand you're looking for a more automated process. Our current template requires pasting LinkedIn profile URLs, which doesn't fully automate the process you're describing. The template helps by automatically finding work emails and generating personalized connection request messages, but it still requires manual input of profile URLs. For a more automated solution, you might need to explore additional tools or custom integrations with Clay. If you need further assistance with this, you can request to speak with a human agent who may be able to provide more specific guidance on advanced automation options.
