LinkedIn Outreach Workflow Built with Claude for Prospecting and Engagement

LinkedIn Prospecting Automation with Claude
A developer on r/ClaudeAI shared a workflow they built using Claude to automate LinkedIn prospecting and engagement. Instead of manually searching profiles and deciding who to interact with, they created a system that handles the entire process.
How the Workflow Functions
The system performs several specific functions:
- Identifies relevant prospects based on role and activity
- Categorizes prospects into hot/warm leads
- Finds recent posts from those profiles
- Engages by liking and commenting on posts
- Sends connection requests
Key Implementation Details
The developer noted several important aspects of how the system operates:
- Instead of jumping straight to cold outreach, it mixes in engagement first (likes/comments) to make interactions feel more natural
- Profiles with no recent activity are effectively skipped for engagement
- Higher-engagement profiles are prioritized for visibility, with comments placed where there's already traction
- The workflow replaces the manual loop of: searching → checking profiles → deciding → engaging → repeating
Current Experimentation Areas
The developer is still working on several aspects of the system:
- Improving lead prioritization
- Determining when to engage versus directly connect
- Making comments feel more contextual
The developer is curious if others are using Claude (especially with MCP setups) for workflows like this beyond just content generation.
