Yes. You can keep using LinkedIn the way you always have while a campaign runs. Two habits keep your account safe: run only one automation tool, and keep your own activity at a normal human level.
What stays normal
A campaign runs in the background. Post, comment, react, browse, accept connection requests, and message your connections as usual. Investor replies land in your normal LinkedIn inbox for you to handle.
Run only one automation tool
Run SeedForge as the only automation tool on your LinkedIn account. A second tool sending actions on the same account at the same time is the most common cause of restrictions. Pause any other LinkedIn outreach or scheduling tool on that account.
How the daily budget is shared
LinkedIn counts every action on your account toward its own limits. Viewing a profile, liking a post, sending a message, and sending a connection request each count as one action, whether you or SeedForge did it. LinkedIn sees the combined total.
SeedForge holds each account under clear daily maximums per account: 20 connection requests, 20 messages, 20 profile views, 20 post likes. Campaigns start at 10 connection requests a day and ramp up to the maximum of 20 as the account warms up, so there is room early on. SeedForge never tries to bypass LinkedIn's limits or put your account at risk.
Connection requests are LinkedIn's tightest limit, and yours count alongside SeedForge's. Keep your own modest while a campaign runs.
Quick answers
Can I send my own LinkedIn messages while a campaign runs?
Yes. Message and reply as usual. Your messages and SeedForge's both count toward LinkedIn's daily limits, so keep your own volume normal.
Will using LinkedIn myself break my campaign?
Everyday use is safe. Keep your own connection requests modest and run only one automation tool on the account.
Can I run another outreach tool at the same time?
Run only one automation tool on a LinkedIn account. A second one at the same time is the most common cause of restrictions.
