Managing your sending times and action limits is essential to avoid spamming and ensure effective outreach. By adjusting these settings, you can control the timing of your messages, stay within safe limits for LinkedIn and email, and protect your reputation.

Key benefits

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.

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.

You can freely change your timezone to:

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

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.

LinkedIn invitation limits depend largely on your social score, influenced by:

While the official weekly limit is around 150, some users report up to 200. The tricky part? You never know your exact limit.

So here’s how to stay safe.

The party is over for free users on LinkedIn, up until October 2023, there was no difference between free and paid LinkedIn accounts when it came to limits.

Now, free accounts are now much more restricted:

These are technical maximums, not recommended volumes:

Important: These are hard limits. Exceeding them can result in errors or a temporary suspension of sending.

Email providers (especially Gmail and Yahoo) analyze many signals before delivering your messages, including:

If you send high volumes with a new domain or mailbox, your reputation can drop instantly, which affects all future sends.

Below are realistic, safe-to-aggressive ranges based on deliverability best practices:

Gmail (free accounts)

Google Workspace (business accounts)

General rule

To protect your reputation, avoid sending more than 250 cold emails per day per mailbox, even if your provider allows more.

Even if Gmail allows 500/day or Workspace 2,000/day, sending near these maximums, especially to cold prospects, can cause:

Bulk-sender rules from Google/Yahoo also require:

So yes, less is often more when it comes to cold email.

If you follow our email and LinkedIn recommendations, set timezone rules properly, and manage volumes gradually, the chances of getting blocked or flagged are very low.
Consistency + moderation = long-term outreach success.
