Automate LinkedIn Leads: Daily Niche Discovery Workflow

Transform your LinkedIn prospecting into an automated daily lead discovery machine that delivers qualified prospects straight to your Telegram every morning. This n8n workflow bypasses LinkedIn's search limitations by leveraging Brave Search to continuously find fresh profiles in your niche, scores them against your ideal customer profile, and formats the top prospects with ready-to-use outreach templates.

What this workflow does

Every weekday at 9 AM EST, this automation runs two parallel Brave Search queries targeting LinkedIn profiles in your specific niche and buyer personas. The workflow merges results, eliminates duplicates, and runs each prospect through a customizable scoring engine that awards points for key indicators: owners and founders (+3 points), niche keywords (+3), buyer titles (+2), and product keywords (+1). Only prospects scoring 3 or higher make the cut.

The top 10 qualified leads are automatically formatted into a clean Telegram briefing containing each prospect's name, position, profile snippet, and direct LinkedIn URL. Every message includes your personalized outreach template at the bottom, ready for copy-paste messaging.

Use cases

• SaaS lead generation: Daily discovery of startup founders and decision-makers in your target market
• Agency prospecting: Automated identification of businesses needing your services
• Partnership outreach: Continuous sourcing of potential strategic partners and collaborators
• Sales pipeline filling: Consistent flow of qualified prospects for your sales team

Technical details

Built with essential n8n nodes including Schedule Trigger for daily automation, HTTP Request nodes for Brave Search API integration, Code nodes for prospect scoring logic, Merge and IF nodes for data processing, and Telegram integration for delivery. The workflow uses Brave Search's site-restriction capabilities to target LinkedIn profiles specifically, avoiding LinkedIn's own search throttling issues.

Setup requires a Brave Search API key and Telegram bot configuration. The scoring engine and search queries are fully customizable to match your ideal customer profile without requiring workflow modifications.
