This article is for Linked Helper 1.

Linked Helper 1 is outdated and was replaced by Linked Helper 2. You can find it here https://www.linkedhelper.com/

Linked Helper 2 knowledge base is available here https://linkedhelper.zendesk.com/hc/en-us

Hi! How to do this:

  1. Go to LinkedIn search page (for new LinkedIn your url will be https://www.linkedin.com/search/results/people/?facetNetwork=%5B%22S%22%5D&origin=FACETED_SEARCH)
  2. Choose 2nd (or 3rd connections in case of LinkedIn Sales Navigator) relations and other filters

3. If you have new LinkedIn interface or LinkedIn Sales Navigator, you can set an invitation message template using {firstname} & {lastname} variables:

4. Click “Connect all in search” button:

5. After this Linked Helper will go through all search results and invite people to connect with you.

6. Linked Helper invites contacts in a number of iterations.

Property <Connect new contacts per period> sets a maximum number of people to be invited in one iteration.

Property <Hours between periods> sets timeout between two iterations.

After timeout, Linked Helper will continue its work automatically.

Please: check recommended limits here : https://medium.com/linked-helper/what-kind-of-limits-should-i-use-88df661c6cf0?source=---------9----------------

By default Linked Helper doesn’t send invite to the same contact twice!

If you closed the browser before all invites are sent, don’t panic :)

1) Open any LinkedIn home page or your profile page

2) In Linked Helper choose settings <Connect new 2nd contacts in search>

3) And press <Continue connect from last search page> button
