At GetSales, we continuously strive to optimize LinkedIn lead generation while ensuring the safety of your accounts. To enhance security and minimize the risk of LinkedIn restrictions, we’ve introduced the Sender’s Schedule feature. This article explains how it works and how to use it effectively.
What is Sender’s Schedule?
The Sender’s Schedule defines the time range during which the Sender Profile is active and executes automation tasks. In technical terms, it determines when the server processes tasks assigned to the Sender Profile.
You can adjust the Sender’s Schedule directly from the Sender Profile page under the LinkedIn tab.

Enhanced Safety
Since LinkedIn actively discourages automation tools, maintaining human-like activity patterns is crucial. The Sender’s Schedule feature helps mimic natural behavior by ensuring your account operates only during realistic working hours, reducing the risk of detection and restrictions.
How to Use Sender’s Schedule
To make your automation appear more natural, configure your Sender’s Schedule to align with typical working hours. For instance, you can set it from 9 AM to 5 PM on weekdays while keeping weekends inactive.
Working 9 to 5 is pretty standard
By default, the Sender’s Schedule is set to 09:00 – 18:00 (weekdays only).
Key Indicators:
When the Sender Profile is inactive, a badge will appear on the Sender Profile page.
An orange exclamation mark will be visible in the list of all Sender Profiles for quick identification.

Setting the Timezone
You can select the required timezone from the dropdown menu at the top of the Sender’s Schedule settings.
💡 Best Practice: Ensure the Sender’s Schedule timezone matches the Automation timezone and the LinkedIn profile location for seamless operation.
🚨 Important: If the Sender’s Schedule and the Automation Schedule do not fully overlap, automation tasks will not execute properly.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
1. All Sender Profiles Are Marked as “Out of Schedule”
The recent update reset all schedules to the default timezone (UTC) and default time range.
✅ Solution: Update each Sender Profile’s schedule according to your preferences.
2. Automation Tasks Are Not Running Despite an Active Sender Profile
This usually happens due to a mismatch between the Sender’s Schedule and the Automation Schedule.
✅ Solution: Verify that both schedules have the same timezone and active time range.
