LinkedIn account ramp-up plan
How many invitations a day, week by week, until you reach cruising pace without a restriction.
Weekends at zero is what a working human looks like.
Complete your profile and publish two or three times before week one. An empty account sending invitations is exactly the profile LinkedIn slows down.
| Week | Per day | Per week | Move up if |
|---|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | 10 | 50 | Acceptance rate stays above 30% |
| Week 2 | 20 | 100 | Acceptance rate stays above 30% |
| Week 3 | 30 | 150over the weekly ceiling | Acceptance rate stays above 30% |
| Week 4cruising | 40 | 200over the weekly ceiling | You stay here, 20 is the ceiling |
Makelead applies its own ramp. A new account starts at 5 invitations a day and ramps up over 3 weeks, under a hard ceiling of 200 invitations over any rolling 7 days that no setting can raise.
A new account that starts at 200 invitations a week gets restricted. So does an account that restarts at its previous volume right after a restriction. The ramp is not about patience, it is about the acceptance rate.
Nothing is sent anywhere, everything runs in your browser.
How it works
- 1Pick the situation your account is in.
- 2Set how many days a week you actually prospect.
- 3Follow the plan one week at a time.
- 4Only move to the next step if your acceptance rate stays above 30 percent.
Frequently asked questions
How many invitations a day on a brand new LinkedIn account?
Five a day for the first week, then eight to nine, then fourteen, then twenty. What allows you to move up is not elapsed time but the acceptance rate: below 30 percent, stay another week at the same level.
How long before I can send 200 invitations a week?
Four weeks on a new account, five on a dormant one, six after a restriction. Faster is possible and regularly ends in a restriction.
Do I have to wait a full week at zero after a restriction?
Yes. Sending again straight after a restriction is what turns a temporary block into a long one. Cancel your old pending invitations, use LinkedIn normally for seven days, then restart at five.
