03The conversation

Thanks for jumping into the Apple thread. Your team is hiring SDRs this quarter, right?

Three of them. It is slow.

We book meetings for teams in that spot. Free on Thursday at 10:30?

Works for me.

Saw your take on AGI under the post. How does your sales team use AI today?

Mostly research. Outreach is still manual.

That is the part we run for teams like yours. 20 minutes on Tuesday?

Sure, send the invite.

Your LinkedOut comment made my day. Quick one, how do you book sales meetings today?

Referrals, mostly.

We add LinkedIn to that for teams like yours. Wednesday at 11?

Wednesday works.

Apple just replaced Tim Cook. The details are wild.

Here are the 7 craziest facts about the new CEO:

1. The new CEO is John Ternus, a hardware engineer.

2. He joined Apple back in 2001 as a 26-year-old engineer.

3. He climbed one product line at a time for 25 years.

4. He became VP, then SVP of Hardware Engineering.

5. He led the switch from Intel chips to Apple's own silicon.

6. He's named on 403 Apple patents.

7. Tim Cook stays on as executive chairman after 15 years.

An hardware engineer with no MBA now runs a $4 trillion company.

Is an engineer the CEO Apple needed?

/ HOW IT WORKS

Live in three weeks. Meetings from day 32.

You approve the accounts, the posts and the messages. We run the rest: the profile, the writing, the lists of people who engaged and every conversation until the meeting is booked.

  1. WEEK 1

    Wishlist and profile

    You name the accounts. We map the decision makers inside each one and tune the profile they will check before replying.

    You approve the accounts
  2. WEEK 2

    Posts and messages

    We write the first posts on formats the feed already rewards, and one message for each type of buyer. Nothing goes out without your yes.

    You approve every post
  3. WEEK 3

    Engagers and outreach

    Every week we pull everyone who liked, commented or viewed the profile, keep the ones who fit, and our business developers start the conversations.

    We run it daily
  4. DAY 32 TO 47

    Meetings in your calendar

    Pipeline typically starts filling between day 32 and day 47. Every meeting lands with notes on the buyer and what they engaged with.

Agency, tool, SDR or ads?

Four ways to get B2B meetings from LinkedIn. They differ most on who does the work and what can go wrong.

Growth Cab

LinkedIn lead generation agency

Trained people choose the accounts, write the posts and run the conversations

Risk to your profile and marketLow

Best whenYou sell $50K+ deals and want meetings with specific decision makers

Automation tool alone

Software sends invites and sequences at volume, and you write and watch everything

Risk to your profile and marketHigh

Best whenYou have time to write, test and watch every campaign yourself

In-house SDR

A new hire learns your market and the channel, with ramp time and turnover

Risk to your profile and marketMedium

Best whenThe playbook already works and you need someone to own it for years

LinkedIn Ads

You pay LinkedIn to show ads and lead forms, for every click or lead

Risk to your profile and marketLow

Best whenYou have budget and an offer strong enough to convert cold traffic

If LinkedIn is one channel of a wider outbound program, see our B2B lead generation agency page. The tools we partner with are on the GTM Tools page.

/ FAQ

LinkedIn lead generation FAQ

Short answers to the questions B2B teams ask before they hire an agency.

Or write to success@growthcab.com

What does a LinkedIn lead generation agency do?

A LinkedIn lead generation agency finds the decision makers you want to sell to, puts your company in front of them on LinkedIn, starts the conversations and books the meetings. At Growth Cab that means posts your buyers stop for, everyone who engages turned into a list, and business developers who run the outreach until a meeting is in your calendar.

How much does LinkedIn lead generation cost?

One monthly fee, sized on the number of accounts, markets and meetings you want. More volume means a higher fee, and you never pay for invites, views or replies. Launch posts in Federico's feed are quoted per launch. We send a proposal after the first call.

How long does LinkedIn lead generation take to work?

Profiles, posts and outreach go live in the third week. Pipeline typically starts filling between day 32 and day 47, and every meeting lands with notes on the buyer.

Do you write LinkedIn posts for our founder?

Yes. We use the process that runs Federico's feed: find formats LinkedIn already rewards, rebuild them around your story, keep every post under 1,000 characters and preview it on a phone before it goes out. You approve every post. The rules are in our guide to reverse engineering viral LinkedIn posts.

Can you launch our product in Federico's feed?

Yes, when your buyers are founders, sales and revenue leaders. Perplexity, Instantly, Taplio and Prospeo have launched there; the most viewed post reached 429,566 views. We say no when the product does not fit the audience.

Is LinkedIn automation safe?

Mass automation with generic messages is the fastest way to get a profile restricted and to annoy the buyers you want. Keep invites targeted, write for each buyer and have people run the conversations. That is how we work.

Is LinkedIn good for B2B lead generation?

Yes, when your buyers are managers and executives at companies you can name. LinkedIn shows who holds each role, lets buyers check who is writing and turns every post into a list of people who raised a hand. It is overkill for low-value deals sold to anyone.

LinkedIn or cold email for B2B lead generation?

Both. LinkedIn shows who the buyer is and lets them see who is writing; email reaches the people who rarely open LinkedIn. Our client results come from running them together, like Elevate and Digital360. See our cold email agency page.

How do I do LinkedIn lead generation myself?

Start with a short list of accounts, a profile that explains what you do and one message per buyer type. Our guide on LinkedIn lead generation covers the whole system, and turning LinkedIn engagement into leads covers the content side.

/ BOOK A CALL

Bring your wishlist. We bring the meetings.

The first call is a fit check with the founders: your buyers, your deal size, the accounts you want. If LinkedIn cannot deliver for you, we say so.
