As LaGrowthMachine is a Multichannel prospection tool, we’ll need access to different elements to send messages automatically. Multichannel means multi-tool, to automate your prospecting, we will need access to the following:
Your email
Your LinkedIn account
Your Twitter account (if you have one)
In this guide, we will show you how to connect all those elements! Wait no more, follow our guide!

Connecting your Email
Connecting your email to your identity is fairly easy. Just head into the identity section and click on "Connect" under your name and picture. LaGrowthMachine will ask you how you want to connect your email. We allow the connection with Google emails, Outlook, or even SMTP.
With Google
If you’re using Google, you have to set the authorization to yes in order to work.
Once done, you’ll have this screen confirming that your email is connected
Outlook
We have a dedicated guide to connect your Outlook email that you can follow here.
SMTP
Click on your identity and then click on "connect email" (Reconnect if you already connected an email precedently).
Then choose SMTP and fill out the followings fields
OVH is your provider
If OVH is your provider, here are the different ports that you'll need :
IMAP Host : ssl0.ovh.net
Port Incoming 993
SMTP Host: ssl0.ovh.net
Port Outgoing 465
IONOS is your provider
If IONOS is your provider, here are the different ports that you'll need
IMAP Host : imap.ionos.fr
Port incoming 983
SMTP: smtp.ionos.fr
Port outgoing 587
If you’re using another provider (for example, Gandi), please refer to the specific instructions of your provider.
It's almost the same as connecting your email! Click on “Connect Linkedin” on your identity. It will open a window on your computer (if not, verify that the identity is well allocated to your widget).
It will open the login page :
Fulfill your credentials and voilà, that’s it! Your Linkedin is now connected and operational!
When you'll click on Twitter, the authorization page will pop up.
Make sure to allow LaGrowthMachine to connect to your account in order to do Twitter automation!
If you have teammates
If you have a teammate, make sure to assign the identity you want to connect the email, Linkedin, or Twitter to your widget from the "Manage widget" section.
If you try to connect your identity without assigning it to your widget, nothing will happen on your end.
On your teammate's computer, their widget will pop up, causing confusion.
It's up to you now!
Now that you know how to connect your different channels, you will have to optimize them, especially the emails. Why don't you follow those instructions?
