LinkedIn Premium is not cheap. How do you justify paying for it?

Launching soon!
I use the free version. though I receive messages like " Your profile is gaining traction, and people have been looking you up. See who they are with a free month of LinkedIn Premium."
But I haven't tried that yet maybe in near future

@umar_saleem I don't see that as a strong incentive to upgrade.
However, needing to connect to many people with a custom message could push people to Premium
Hey Jonni, yes I do.
@abhishek_ux What do you use it for? How do you justify its cost?
Launching soon!
I don’t 😉
@feichen_ @rupal_saini This is very insightful Rupal.
What is a safe connection rate threshold?
I use the free version. It's super expensive for me and I don't use it for sales, so I get all I need from the free version.
I do, but only because my company is paying for that - although to be honest, I don't see many advantages compared with the free version.
@natalia_toth The free version only gives you 5 or 10 free custom messages (when you're connecting with someone new) per month. This is very limiting!
No. Considered but really do not know what would be benefit for me rn.
@busmark_w_nika The free version only provides either 5 or 10 free custom message per month when you're connecting with someone new. They lowered this dramatically recently.
I do it to have the ability to send connection invitations.
Launching soon!
I do! it's good for cold outreach.
I just use the free version
@julia_engelsmann Do you need to write a custom message when connecting? The free version is severely limited...
Launching soon!
If I was doing more cold sales work I'd get it in a heartbeat. Since I'm mostly focusing on content marketing at the moment I'm not using it—Premium doesn't seem to boost your reach at all.
Hi Jonni: I did once, but I didn't find it offered much for the price.
I don't. Infact, I got my leads on linkedin groups which is very useful!
Our clients do !
Not really. I was considering at one point, but I didn't really find too much of a value. How about you?
