Overview

Your campaign's performance depends on how many actions your identity completes each day. But sometimes, even with high limits configured, you’ll notice that you didn’t hit the maximum number you set.

Key benefits

  • Understand why daily actions don’t always reach your configured maximums.

  • Learn how to properly configure limits


What these numbers really mean

They're not quotas, they're upper limits

Those numbers you see in your identity settings aren’t guaranteed daily quotas. They define the maximum number of actions LGM is allowed to perform for a specific type of activity.

LGM can’t guarantee that these exact numbers will be reached every single day. Too many factors influence execution: channel constraints, step availability, reply timing, sequence logic, LinkedIn restrictions, and more.

However, LGM constantly optimizes execution so that your identity performs as many actions as possible while remaining safe. So even if you don’t hit the limit, everything is working as expected.

How to manage your limits and hours

Accessing your limits and hours

To adjust these settings, click your identity directly or select Limits & Hours.

Note: These rules apply per identity. Each identity can have its own schedule, limits, and timezone.

Timezone settings

Why timezones matter

Timezones determine the local time at which your messages are delivered. This prevents awkward situations like contacting someone late at night.

Example:
If you're in Berlin and messaging prospects in Singapore, your 4 PM is their 10 PM — definitely not ideal.

Choosing your timezone

You can freely change your timezone to:

  • Operate in the same timezone as your prospect list

  • Adapt to a business trip

  • Control sending times more effectively

You can also choose the specific days and hours when your messages can be sent.

Action Limits

Action limits let you cap certain activities such as visits, messages, or connection requests. It’s a maximum, not a guarantee. La Growth Machine will never force actions up to the limit if conditions aren’t met.

FAQs

Why didn't LGM reach the limit I manually set?

Because limits are upper boundaries, not guaranteed quotas. Execution depends on campaign steps, available prospects, replies, LinkedIn safety rules, and more.

Does a lower daily action count mean something is wrong?

Not at all. As long as actions are being executed consistently, LGM is pacing itself safely based on the channels you’re using.

If I increase my limits, will LGM automatically perform more actions?

It may but only if your campaign logic and your channels allow for it. Limits control the ceiling, not the volume of available actions.

Can I bypass LinkedIn or email provider limits?

No. These constraints exist to protect your account and your domain reputation. LGM always prioritizes safety.
