The LinkedIn Copy Rules That Never Bend

The LinkedIn Copy Rules That Never Bend

Guardrail for LinkedIn outreach copy, loads whenever your request involves writing or reviewing connection requests, DMs, or InMails, and checks message structure, chat-register voice, banned AI-tell phrases, and placeholder hygiene. Works with or without an Expandi account.

One quick form. It also puts you on the update list for this skill.

Try asking

Talk to your agent the way you would brief a teammate.

“Does this connection request break any LinkedIn outreach rules?”
“What should never appear in a cold LinkedIn DM?”
“Check this InMail subject line before I send it”

What it does

  • Loads whenever your request involves writing or reviewing a connection request, DM, or InMail.
  • Runs in two modes: GENERATE for new copy, AUDIT for copy that already exists.
  • Checks message structure, chat-register voice, and a banned-phrase list of common LinkedIn “tells”.
  • Flags every violation with a rule ID, the exact offending text, and a concrete rewrite.
  • Respects any Deviations your Company Profile has recorded, without re-litigating them each time.
  • Works standalone, no Expandi account or other skill required.
