How to Use AI Message Writing

AI Message Writing in SalesTarget.ai helps you write high-quality LinkedIn connection notes, messages, and InMails faster. Instead of writing from scratch, you describe your target audience and goal — and the AI generates ready-to-use copy that you can edit, refine, or use as-is.

What AI Message Writing Can Do for LinkedIn

  • Write connection request notes that are short, relevant, and personalized

  • Write LinkedIn direct messages for any step in your sequence

  • Write InMail subject lines and body copy

  • Generate a full message sequence — all steps at once

  • Rewrite or improve messages you've already drafted

  • Adjust tone — casual, professional, consultative, direct

  • Suggest personalization hooks based on the prospect's role or industry

Step 1: Open the AI Message Writer

  1. Go to LinkedIn Outreach → Campaigns and open or create a campaign.

  2. In the sequence builder, click on any Message, Connection Request, or InMail step.

  3. In the message editor, click the AI Write button (AI icon in the toolbar).

  4. The AI Message Writer panel will open.

Step 2: Describe Your Campaign

Provide context so the AI generates relevant, targeted copy:

Field

Example

Your product / service

"A LinkedIn and cold email outreach automation platform"

Target audience

"VP of Sales and Sales Directors at B2B SaaS companies"

Goal of this message

"Start a conversation — get them to reply"

Tone

Casual / Professional / Direct / Consultative

Key value proposition

"Helps sales teams book 3x more meetings without increasing headcount"

Step 3: Select the Message Type

Tell the AI which type of LinkedIn copy you need:

  • Connection Note — short (under 300 characters), no pitch

  • First Message — warm intro after connection is accepted

  • Follow-up Message — shorter, different angle from the first

  • InMail — includes a subject line + longer body

  • Full Sequence — generates all message steps at once

Step 4: Generate and Refine

  1. Click Generate.

  2. Review the output — the AI will produce copy appropriate for the message type and channel.

  3. If you want adjustments, type a refinement instruction:

    • "Make it shorter — LinkedIn messages should be under 5 sentences"

    • "Remove the call to action — just open a conversation"

    • "Make the tone more casual"

    • "Add a reference to their industry in the opening line"

  4. Click Refine to update the copy based on your instruction.

  5. Once happy, paste the result into the message editor or click Use This.

Generate a Full LinkedIn Sequence with AI

Instead of writing each step individually, generate your entire campaign message sequence at once:

  1. In the sequence builder, click Generate Full Sequence with AI.

  2. Fill in your campaign context (product, audience, goal, tone).

  3. Specify how many message steps you want and over how many days.

  4. Click Generate.

  5. The AI will produce copy for every message step and suggest delays between each.

  6. Review, edit, and launch.

Tips for Better AI Output on LinkedIn

  • Keep LinkedIn tone conversational — tell the AI "write this as a natural LinkedIn message, not a formal email"

  • Specify the character limit for connection notes — remind the AI it's a 300-character note, not a full message

  • Avoid jargon — ask the AI to keep it simple and human

  • Always review before sending — AI output is a strong starting point, but your own voice and edits will always improve the result

  • Use personalization variables — after generating copy, add {{first_name}} and {{company_name}} where relevant to make it feel 1-to-1
