What you’ll have working
Claude will be connected to your LinkedIn account through SalesTouch, with its tools verified and your first invite-then-DM workflow launched.
SalesTouchThe objective
Claude already understands your offer, your audience, and your standards. The missing piece is access to the live LinkedIn context and the tools required to act on it.
Without the connection
It can draft generic suggestions from the context you paste into chat, but it cannot inspect live profiles, posts, conversations, or execute the workflow.
Once SalesTouch is connected
Search profiles, posts, companies, and everyone who engaged with a post.
Read profiles and activity before deciding who is relevant and why.
Read your inbox, identify warm replies, and prepare personalized follow-ups.
Turn LinkedIn research and your business context into posts ready for approval.
The outcome: Claude keeps the reasoning and your business context. SalesTouch supplies the LinkedIn eyes and hands. You choose the permissions and approvals.

LinkedIn account found: your connected profile
No LinkedIn action was taken.
Now give Claude its first real mission: connect with Antoine, the person behind SalesTouch, and tell him you are up and running.
Send a connection invitation to Antoine Deschamps: https://www.linkedin.com/in/antoinedsh/. Once he accepts, send him a short LinkedIn DM introducing me and saying I connected SalesTouch.
The DM is sent only after Antoine accepts the connection.

3 prompts to try next
Each prompt unlocks a different part of SalesTouch. Pick the outcome you want, replace the bracketed detail when needed, and run it in Claude.
Start from people who already showed interest, then let your agent decide who is actually worth contacting.
This mission will
Analyze everyone who engaged with this LinkedIn post: [PASTE POST URL]. Identify the people who match my ICP, explain why each one is relevant, and prepare a personalized connection request for my approval.
See the conversations that deserve attention first and get the next response ready without scanning every thread yourself.
This mission will
Review my LinkedIn conversations from the last 7 days. Identify warm replies, unanswered questions, and follow-ups that are due. Rank them by priority and draft the next message for each conversation. Wait for my approval before sending.
Give your agent a target and let it build the qualified prospect list and personalized outreach for you.
This mission will
Find 20 founders of B2B SaaS companies in France with 10–50 employees. Review their profiles and company context, rank the best matches for my offer, and prepare a personalized connection request plus a follow-up DM for each. Wait for my approval before sending.
Built to protect your account
SalesTouch controls how, when, and from where every LinkedIn action runs. Claude keeps your context; you keep the final say.
No LinkedIn automation is completely risk-free. Use sensible limits and follow LinkedIn’s rules.
A residential IP matched to your country avoids suspicious location changes.
Activity stops before reaching volumes that could put your account at risk.
Actions are spread across your working hours, never sent in sudden bursts.
If LinkedIn pushes back, SalesTouch pauses and reschedules automatically.
Choose what runs automatically and what always needs your confirmation.
Your password and 2FA secret stay encrypted and are only used when needed.
Create your account, connect LinkedIn, and run the read-only check before your first real workflow.
