Warm Up a Target Account on LinkedIn with an AI Agent (Before the Ask)

Company-level play: research a target account, engage its team's posts over days, and only then send the personalized connect — familiarity before the ask.

The play, step by step

  1. See
    enrich_companyPull the account: firmographics, the team, lookalikes worth adding to the list.
  2. See
    list_person_postsRead what the key people are posting.
  3. Act
    comment_on_postEngage the team's posts with substance over several days — paced, not burst.
  4. Act
    send_connection_requestSend the personalized connect once warm, with approval.

Paste this to your agent

Research {company}: enrich the account, identify the 3 most relevant people for {my offer}, and read their recent posts. Over the next week, draft one substantive comment per person per few days (queued for my approval, inside my daily caps). Once we've engaged twice with someone, draft a personalized connection request referencing the thread. Nothing sends without me.
Why this stays account-safe

Deliberately slow: engagement is spread across days inside your caps — burst engagement is what gets accounts flagged. Every comment and connect is approval-gated and logged.
