In this article, we wanted to cover 10 best ways to automate your post engagement, for lead magnets. But we could not find any, that are reliably delivering lead magnets in DMs for over 2 years!

1. LeadShark

The only tool who has the track record to guarantee that the lead magnet automation will work and will work fast:

Someone comments “interested”
Someone asks for a resource
We connect with them
And we send the resource

Why are the others listed first on Google then?

Because all they do is game the Google Search Results by creating a lot of competitor blog pages.

Especially targeting LeadShark and how they are better than LeadShark.

Just stop for a second and ask yourself why? Why is everyone mentioning these guys by name, right?

It's because we are the category leader and the predecessor to all other lead magnet automation tools.

How is LeadShark different than other tools?

Very simple, it's because LeadShark simply works, and the others are basically larping.

Some even create "Lead Magnet Automation" pages, just to get Google traffic, and what they actually turn out to be is just a post scheduler actually (without any comment-to-DM automation)!

Basically they add these bloated statistics to their website, like we generated 1 million leads, whereas mostly they are just fake statistics. And they get some testimonials from few of their buddies.

Some of them are real. But they were actually generated using LeadShark. When they were still our customer, and before they had the brilliant idea to copy us.

And at the end of the day their entire marketing strategy boils down to: bad mouthing LeadShark to people (with fake accusations, like LeadShark gets you banned. Zero LeadShark user has ever been banned from LinkedIn to this day) and to try and gain customers via these cheap marketing tactics.

So what makes you so flawless / perfect then?

We are not flawless. Of course not. We do have some bugs still, but we fix them the fastest. We literally fix them in a few hours (1 day max). Often our customers are shocked, as to how fast we can add relevant new feature requests.

Whereas most of our competitors, they take two weeks to respond to even the simplest of bug requests. Or flat out ignore their paying customers.

Is LeadShark for me?

Maybe, maybe not. It depends. Are you suffering from success on LinkedIn, and you are looking for the best tool for the job? Then yes. Do you get 2-3 comments on your post? Then maybe no.

Then go to our competitors because they're actually better for cold outreach: essentially queuing 1,000 people in a list and targeting them day in and day out.

They advertise that they're better than us. Because they have unlimited follow-ups, and we only offer two follow-ups. You know why? Because we hate spam as much as you hate spam.

Be real. You hate to get 8, 9, 10 messages back to back to back every single day from someone who's trying to sell you their solution? No, nobody likes this.

So why should our tool allow you to do this? That's why we don't allow it, not because we have a technical incapability to do this.

You make some big claims, how can you prove them / back them up?

Yes, you are correct. But we do not make these claims out of thin air.

We have a public stats page to back it up! We have sent over 2.5 Million DMs (lead magnets only, no cold outreach), to over 23K lead magnet posts. We literally have 1K posts, that just have the word CLAUDE as their CTA.

And we were the first tool to market that actually built a working lead magnet automation solution, back in 2024! (based on the lack of such a tool in the market, and upon many request by real folks. who had this painpoint!)
