How do I use LinkedIn and Email together?

Looking at your sample article and the email content, I'll create a focused helpdesk article about this LinkedIn + Email strategy. Here's a cleaner, more structured version with clear spots for screenshots:


The LinkedIn + Email Strategy: Your Quick-Start Outreach Method

Looking to start meaningful conversations with prospects? This guide shows you a simple but effective two-channel approach that takes less than 30 seconds per lead.

Why This Strategy Works

Instead of choosing between cold emails or LinkedIn messages, this approach uses both channels strategically:

LinkedIn gets you on their radar – A connection request puts you in their network
Email starts the real conversation – Your personalized message arrives when they're already aware of you

The key? You're not trying to book the gig in one message. You're simply starting a conversation.

The 1-2 Punch in Action

Step 1: Connect on LinkedIn

Navigate to any lead in SpeakerDrive and click the LinkedIn button to show their LinkedIN URL.

Pro tip: Don't add a message to your LinkedIn request. A simple connection is just enough, and often has higher acceptance rates.

Step 2: Generate Your Email Outreach

Without leaving the lead, toggle to the Email option and click "Generate Outreach."

The Message Composer will create a personalized email that:

  • References specific details about their organization
  • Pulls relevant experience from your profile
  • Keeps the message conversational and brief

Your 3-Minute Quick Start

Ready to try this yourself? Here's exactly what to do:

  1. Pick any lead from your search results and unlock it.
  2. Click LinkedIn and send a connection request (no message needed)
  3. Toggle to Email and generate your outreach message
  4. Review and send the email

That's it. You've just created two touchpoints with a potential client in under 30 seconds.

What Makes This Different

Notice how the generated emails mention specific details? That's your SpeakerDrive profile at work. When the system sees you've spoken at Amazon or specialize in "trust and values," it weaves these details naturally into your outreach.

No generic templates – just relevant, personalized messages.
