Automation & Tools

I didn’t hire my hardest-working employee — I installed it.

Ich habe meinen fleißigsten Mitarbeiter nicht eingestellt – ich habe ihn installiert.

I used to think I urgently needed more staff.

My problem:

Too many manual tasks. Visiting profiles every day. Sending copy-and-paste messages every day. Tracking follow-ups in Excel every day.

I was no longer the strategist in my business. I was my own, overpriced intern.
Does that sound familiar? You want to sell, but you are busy managing.

You think about hiring an assistant. But employees cost money. They need training. They get sick. They need holidays.

Then I realised: I do not need another person on the payroll for routine work. I need a system.

Today, my new “colleague” starts punctually at 7:30 a.m. While I have my first coffee and plan the strategy for the week, they have already:

✅ Sent 39 relevant connection requests.
✅ Sent 57 follow-up messages.
✅ Posted this post

They do not complain. They do not get tired. And they cost a fraction of a salary.

The result:

My calendar fills up with meetings. But my mind stays free for the real conversations. Because automation does not replace people. It gives them back the time to be human again (whether that means more free time or more time for strategic, exciting tasks in the business).

You can install this colleague on macOS, Windows, ChromeOS and Linux. It works on your computer through your own IP address, and you can test it with all Premium features for ten days: LinkedIn automation download

Your recruiting colleague, ready to go

Recruiting teams face the same question when they consider adding another sourcing role. Much of the work is repetitive: opening profiles from Recruiter search results, sending connection requests, copying initial messages, and following up. CompLeadly handles that part, using a saved Recruiter or Sales Navigator list. You still handle the conversation with the candidate yourself. If you’re looking for a new job, you can use the same tool on a smaller scale. For example, search for team leads at a handful of companies you’d like to work for, then send a connection request and an opening message. The free version allows 2 connection requests per day (basic feature with a daily limit). The the recruiting use case.

Which mind-numbing task would you most like to “uninstall” right away?
