Step 4: Select Your Input Source
Define the input source to specify LinkedIn profiles for the LinkedIn Auto Message automation. TexAu offers versatile options to meet the needs of founders, sales managers, marketers, and growth hackers, enabling efficient and personalized outreach.. Here's how to configure each:
