Overview
You sent a LinkedIn invitation to a prospect, and they accepted it. Great news — the hardest part is done! Now you’re wondering: How should I follow up? A call can be a strong next step, especially when La Growth Machine enriches the contact and finds their phone number.
This guide shows you how to use that data to trigger a call task, even if Aircall doesn’t integrate with Zapier.
Key benefits
Use enriched LinkedIn data to identify which prospects can be called.
Create automatic call tasks when a phone number is found.
Bypass the lack of Zapier integration using custom workflows.
Boost your chances of conversion with a timely phone call.
How phone numbers are retrieved
Once you're connected with a lead on LinkedIn, La Growth Machine can automatically retrieve:
Personal email address (around 80% of cases).
Personal phone number (around 20% of cases).
Important:
Using a personal email for prospecting is not recommended — it’s inappropriate and may irritate your lead.
Phone numbers, however, may sometimes be linked to the person’s professional line, making them more acceptable for outreach.
A simple way to leverage this data is to create a call task whenever LGM detects a phone number on a lead.
Setting up the workflow
Step 1: Build your sequence
Create your sequence as usual.
At the end of your workflow, add a condition such as:
If LGM finds a phone number → add the lead to a new audience.
Suggested audience name: Leads to call.
This makes it easy to identify leads who didn’t respond to your sequence but may still be reachable by phone.
Step 2: Use the audience to generate call tasks
Once leads are added to this audience, you can easily see:
Who didn’t respond
Who has a phone number
Who can be contacted through Aircall
From there, you can manually create a call task inside Aircall.
Step 3: Advanced method — use a webhook
If you want to automate even further:
Create a webhook instead of adding the lead to an audience.
This webhook can send the lead’s information directly to Aircall, allowing you to automatically create a call task.
