⏱️ Can I Delay the First Message After Connection Is Accepted?​

Absolutely! LeadCarnival lets you control the timing of every step in your outreach sequence — including the message sent right after a connection request is accepted.

✅ How to Add a Delay​

When building your sequence:

  1. Add a “Wait” step right after the Connect action.
  2. Set the delay (e.g., Wait 1 day).
  3. Then add your first message step.

💡 Why Use a Delay?​

  • Makes your outreach feel more human
  • Avoids coming across as pushy
  • Gives the prospect time to engage before receiving a message

Use delays strategically to improve your response rates and maintain a natural outreach flow.
