Before using an automation tool, your LinkedIn account must be warmed up, or you will be banned by LinkedIn very quickly.
LinkedIn is a bit like God, or like the air conditioner in our office, it watches us, monitors us and acts for good or bad to help us get back on the right path of respecting the Terms and Conditions. 😬
