How do I choose how much Maya does on her own in Outreach?
Maya can do as little or as much of your LinkedIn commenting as you like, in three steps: Manual, Semi and Full. You can move up or step back at any time, and nothing changes until you press the button.

The first time: choose under How much do you want Maya to do?
Before LinkedIn connects, Outreach shows a page called Before anything goes out in your name. On the right, pick Manual: I approve every comment (most people start here), Semi or Full. Semi lets you set how many comments a day go out without you, up to 8.

Outreach finds people who have recently shown an interest in the problem you solve, gets your name in front of them on LinkedIn, and brings the ones who say yes into your community.
