About this episode (#419):
Jack and Jeremy break down one of the most underrated tactics in LinkedIn outreach — using post engagement to identify and connect with high-intent leads. They walk through the exact process of turning public LinkedIn activity into a pipeline of warm prospects.
Key topics discussed in this episode:
- Post engagement is a reliable signal for finding real, active LinkedIn users who are already paying attention.
- High-engagement posts from competitors and influencers give you a pre-qualified list of people already interested in your topic.
- Referencing a shared conference or event in your connection request creates natural context that dramatically boosts acceptance rates.
- Keep the first message simple and focused on starting a conversation rather than pitching; your only goal is just to get a reply.
- After scraping post engagements, enrich the data to filter by ICP criteria and exclude competitors before reaching out.
- At ~25 requests per day, you can land roughly 100 new connections per week at a 70%+ acceptance rate without triggering LinkedIn throttling.
- The real focus should be converting the connections you're already getting into calls or outcomes, not just sending more requests.
The window to capitalize on this strategy is open now — Jack and Jeremy both emphasize that tactics like this don't stay this effective forever, so the best time to test it is today.
