What to Do When You Receive Your First LinkedSDR Rep: Complete Setup & Safety Guide

Your LinkedSDR rep has arrived—already matched to your needs, with complete infrastructure provided and professionally warmed up. The first 7-14 days are your integration period to ensure smooth, long-term performance.

Think of this period like onboarding a new sales rep: they're qualified and ready to work, but need time to integrate with your campaigns and strategy. LinkedIn's algorithms are designed to detect accounts that immediately launch into aggressive outreach, so a gradual approach works best.

What LinkedSDR Already Handled:

• Finding and matching the right rep for your target market
• Complete infrastructure setup (GoLogin, proxy, fingerprinting)
• 75-90 day professional warm-up process
• Security configuration and monitoring

What You Handle:

• Integrating the rep into your campaigns
• Strategy, targeting, and messaging
• Daily outreach execution
• Performance optimization

This guide ensures your rep transitions seamlessly from matched professional to active business development tool.

Step 1: Secure Access & Initial Profile Optimization (Days 1-3)

Verify Access to Your Rep's Account

Day 1 Priority: Confirm everything works before making any changes.

• Test login credentials through the provided GoLogin setup
• Verify proxy connection matches rep's location (LinkedSDR configured this)
• Confirm 2FA access if you plan to connect Sales Navigator later (notify support team)

Note: GoLogin may occasionally have connectivity issues or IP downtime. Simply close the browser and wait a few minutes before trying again. If the issue persists after multiple attempts, contact support with a screenshot—we'll help resolve it quickly.

Understanding What You Can and Cannot Customize

Never Change These Elements (Rep's Real Identity):

‍

What You CAN Customize for Your Campaigns:

Job titles and descriptions within past experience sections to align with your outreach messaging. This allows you to position the rep for your campaigns while respecting the rep's authentic work history.

You Can Update:

• Current role visibility: Headline, banner image, current work experience
• About section and professional summary
• Job titles within experience (not company names)
• Job descriptions, achievements, certifications
• Skills and endorsements
• All messaging and outreach content

Why this matters: The rep's real background (name, location, company history, education) is fixed—this is what allows them to pass identity verification and operate long-term. You customize headlines, job titles, descriptions, and messaging to align with your campaigns.

Building Initial Network Foundation (Days 1-3)

Start with 15 connections daily maximum. Target people who would naturally connect with a new team member:

Priority Connection Targets:

• Current team members and colleagues
• Business partners and collaborators
• Industry contacts you've worked with
• Alumni from relevant institutions
• Previous colleagues from related companies

Best Approach: Use Slack/Internal Communication

Message your colleagues: "This is my new SDR [Name], can you connect with him/her? [LinkedIn URL]"

This is ideal because your colleagues are adding the rep, which looks authentic.

Alternative: Direct LinkedIn Messages from the Rep:

"Hi [Name], I'm now working with [Your Company] on [Brief Description] with [YOUR NAME]. Would love to connect. :)"

Step 2: Profile Completion & Network Expansion (Days 4-7)

Optimize Experience for Your Campaigns

What You Can Customize:

• Job titles within existing experience (e.g., "Marketing Coordinator" → "Growth Marketer")
• Job descriptions to emphasize transferable skills relevant to your business
• Achievements and responsibilities to create logical career progression

What Stays Fixed (Rep's Real Background):

• Company names (rep's real employment history)
• Company logos (fixed and cannot be modified)
• Education entries (rep's real credentials)

Safe Editing Guidelines:

• Never delete the rep's previous companies or education
• Modify job titles/descriptions gradually over several days
• Make changes that create natural career progression
• Avoid dramatic changes in one day

Accelerate Network Growth

Connection Scaling: Start with 15 daily, increase by +2 each day until reaching 25 per weekday maximum.

Days 4-7 Connection Targets:

• Industry leaders and influencers
• Potential partners and collaborators
• Prospects from target market (non-sales approach)
• Professional group members
• Content creators you engage with

Content Engagement (Optional but Recommended)

Simple activities to show authentic engagement:

• Like and comment on posts from connections
• Repost content from company leaders or industry experts
• Engage with posts from recently added connections

Step 3: Safe Automation Launch (Days 8-14)

IMPORTANT: Connecting Your Automation Tool Properly

Step-by-Step: Credential Login Method (Recommended)

1. Open GoLogin Browser First

• You must launch your rep's profile through GoLogin if you're using Chrome extension method

2. Navigate to Your Automation Tool

• Go to the tool's website (Expandi, Dripify, etc.)
• Look for "Connect LinkedIn Account" or similar option

3. Select "Credential for WebApps" Login Method

• When the tool asks how to connect, choose this option
• This is the most reliable method

4. Set Proxy Location to Match Your Rep

• Important: Set proxy location to match your rep's location
• Most LinkedSDR reps are from United States—use US proxy
• If your rep is from another location (UK, Singapore, Canada), match that location
• Location consistency helps maintain account health

5. Enter OTP Code

• OTP codes are provided by LinkedSDR support team
• Note: OTP codes expire in 20 minutes
• Coordinate timing with us before attempting login
• Email admin@linkedSDR.com to request OTP when ready to integrate

6. Complete Connection

• Follow tool's remaining setup steps
• Verify connection is successful before proceeding

Alternative: Let LinkedSDR Handle Automation Tool Integration

If you prefer not to handle the technical integration yourself:

• Provide us with your automation tool credentials
• We'll integrate all your profiles within 1 business day
• Professional setup with optimal safety settings
• No technical complexity or OTP coordination needed
• Once completed, you can change the password

Email admin@linkedSDR.com with:

• Automation tool name (Expandi, Dripify, Heyreach, etc.)
• Tool login credentials
• Number of profiles to integrate

Smart Connection Strategy

Target warm prospects initially to establish strong acceptance rates:

Priority Automation Targets (First 2 Weeks):

• 2nd-degree connections (mutual connections increase trust)
• Profile visitors (already showed interest)
• Recent job changers (actively networking)
• Active content creators (regularly engage on LinkedIn)
• Industry event attendees (demonstrated professional engagement)

Message Quality: The 3-Line Framework

Line 1 - Personal Premise: Reference something specific

• "Noticed your post about [specific topic]..."
• "Saw you recently joined [Company] as [Title]..."

Line 2 - Value Hook: Connect your background to their world

• "We help similar [Industry] leaders with [Relevant Challenge]..."
• "I work with [Type of Companies] on [Related Topic]..."

Line 3 - Simple CTA: Ask for connection, not meeting

• "Would love to connect and stay in touch professionally."
• "Happy to connect if you're open to expanding your [Industry] network."

Behavior Patterns to Avoid

Don't do these:

• Identical messages across multiple prospects
• Aggressive follow-up sequences (>3 messages total)
• Generic templates with no personalization
• High-volume activity during non-business hours
• Rapid profile changes during active campaigns

‍

After Day 14: Scaling with Your Rep

You're now ready for:

• Increased automation activity within safe limits
• Expanded target audience and campaign volume
• Advanced outreach sequences
• Multiple campaigns simultaneously

Maintain These Limits:

• 25 connection requests per weekday maximum
• 20 profile visits daily maximum
• 3+ working days between follow-up messages

Follow these guidelines and your LinkedSDR rep will generate consistent results while maintaining account health.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

FAQ

Q: What if I can't access my rep's account through GoLogin?

Contact LinkedSDR support. Don't attempt access through your regular browser—this can cause location inconsistency issues.

Note: GoLogin may occasionally have connectivity issues or IP downtime. Simply close the browser and wait a few minutes before trying again. If the issue persists after multiple attempts, email us at admin@linkedSDR.com with a screenshot—we'll help resolve it quickly.

Q: GoLogin is prompting me to upgrade to a paid plan. What should I do?

Don't upgrade. Go to GoLogin settings and set your subscription to the free plan. The free plan works perfectly for operating your LinkedSDR rep. If you see upgrade prompts, simply ensure your account is set to "free plan" and continue using it normally.

Q: Can I connect with my existing business contacts using this rep?

Yes, absolutely. Connect gradually over several days using natural language like "Now working with [Company] on [Brief Description]." Avoid mentioning LinkedSDR directly—just treat it like introducing a new team member.

Q: What if LinkedIn asks my rep for ID verification?

Stop all activity and contact LinkedSDR support immediately. Don't attempt verification yourself. Our team handles verification requests using the rep's authentic documentation. This is why real reps can pass verification naturally and continue operating.

Q: Can LinkedSDR help me connect my automation tool, or do I need to do it myself?

You have two options:

Option 1: DIY Integration

• Follow the Step 3 guide carefully
• Use GoLogin browser only
• Select "Credential for WebApps" login method
• Set proxy to match your rep's location (usually United States)
• Coordinate OTP code timing with us (codes expire in 20 minutes)

Option 2: LinkedSDR Handles Integration (Recommended for most users)

• Email admin@linkedSDR.com with your automation tool credentials
• We'll integrate all profiles within 1 business day
• Professional setup with optimal settings
• No technical complexity or OTP coordination needed
• Once completed, you can change the password

Most clients prefer Option 2 to ensure smooth setup.

Q: Can I change my rep's profile picture?

Profile picture changes require pre-approval. Contact LinkedSDR first—we'll propose edited versions (outfit/background changes only). This triggers 3-month upfront billing due to the additional work involved.

Q: Can I customize my rep's company history for my campaigns?

Company names: Fixed (rep's real employment history—cannot be changed)

Job titles and descriptions: Fully customizable—they're yours to modify however you want

Once you receive your rep, you have complete freedom to customize job titles, descriptions, headlines, and experience details to align with your campaigns. The rep is now yours to position for your business needs. The only fixed elements are the company names, logos, and education (rep's verified background).
