Post engagers
Everyone who reacted to or commented on a specific post. You get a shared context to open with, which is what actually earns acceptances. A competitor's popular post is a particularly good source.
Six ways to build a list, including the warm ones nobody else pulls from.
Cold search results are the worst-performing audience in outreach and the one almost everybody uses, because it is the only source most tools support. The people who already engaged with a post on your topic, or turned up to an event about it, are a far better list and are usually left untouched.
LinkedIn search, a saved audience, post engagers, event attendees, group members, or a CSV import.
Filter down until you can say in one sentence why this group would want to hear from you.
Audiences are stored with the filters that produced them, so a play that works can be run again without rebuilding the list.

People who registered for a LinkedIn event or joined a group have demonstrated interest in a topic and share a legitimate reason to connect.
CSV import needs one column: the LinkedIn profile URL. Everything else is optional. Prospects are deduplicated against your workspace, so overlapping lists never contact anyone twice.
The audience is the campaign. A tight list of two hundred people who share a real characteristic beats a loose list of two thousand on reply rate, and it beats it on account safety too, because ignored connection requests are the clearest signal LinkedIn uses to spot automation.
Which is the practical argument for the warmer sources. Someone who commented on a post about outbound hiring last week has a reason to accept a message about outbound hiring. Someone who merely holds the title does not.
