LinkedIn Free vs. Premium vs. Sales Navigator

DoReach works with both free and paid LinkedIn accounts. The features available to you depend on the type of LinkedIn subscription connected to your workspace.
For most users, a free LinkedIn account is enough to run connection-based outreach. If you need advanced prospecting or want to contact people outside your network, a Premium or Sales Navigator account offers additional capabilities.


Free LinkedIn
A free LinkedIn account supports most of DoReach's core automation features, including:
  • Sending connection requests
  • Messaging existing connections
  • Visiting profiles
  • Following people and companies
  • Liking and commenting on posts
  • Skill endorsements
Keep in mind that free accounts have stricter LinkedIn limits, so it's best to use conservative daily activity settings.


LinkedIn Premium
A Premium account includes everything available with a free account, along with additional features such as InMail credits.
This allows you to contact some people even if you're not connected, making it useful for reaching decision-makers who may not accept connection requests.


Sales Navigator
Sales Navigator is designed for users who rely heavily on LinkedIn for prospecting.
When you connect a Sales Navigator account to DoReach, you can:
  • Import prospects directly from Sales Navigator searches
  • Use Sales Navigator lead searches in your campaigns
  • Access a larger pool of filtered prospects
  • Take advantage of Sales Navigator-specific workflows
If your outreach depends on advanced search filters or large prospect lists, Sales Navigator is usually the best option.


Which one should you choose?
The right subscription depends on your outreach goals.
  • Use Free LinkedIn if you're building your network and running standard connection campaigns.
  • Choose LinkedIn Premium if you want to send InMail messages and reach more people outside your network.
  • Use Sales Navigator if prospecting is a major part of your sales process and you need advanced search capabilities.


    No matter which subscription you use, DoReach works with the features already available on your LinkedIn account. It does not upgrade or modify your LinkedIn plan.
