To access the Invite tool, just head over to the TOOLS page, click on your LinkedIn profile, then select the Invite tool from the left-side menu. Once there, you’ll find four main sections: “Add Friends to Groups”,  “Invite Connections to Follow Pages.”, “Import Connections From Emails”, and “Invite Friends to Events”

In this section this tab, you will find the following sections:

Run Timers section:

  1. The Wait between X and Y seconds before each new operation feature lets you set the number of seconds the tool should wait before sending out another invitation.
  2. You can also set the number of invites sent out during each operation using the Invite between X and Y people per operation option.
  3. The Execute between HH:MM and HH:MM option allows you to set the specific time frame for the tool to carry out the invitations.

  5. The Days of the week when to operate option lets you choose the specific days of the week for the tool to send out invitations.
  6. The “Rotate Days” option allows the tool to cycle through the days you selected.

💡With the option “Rotate Days”, the days you selected for the invite tool to operate can be randomly rearranged each week. For instance, if you selected Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, the tool will choose a new set of three days for the next week. Additionally, you have the option to exclude weekends from the rotation if you don’t want to send invites during those days.

Invite Friends to Groups Settings section:

  • The “Invite X-Y per day” feature allows you to determine the number of friends you would like to invite to your groups on a daily basis. A random number between X and Y will be selected to serve as the daily limit for that day.
