LinkedIn Outreach for Recently Funded DACH Companies: Exact 3-Touch Sequence (2026)

LinkedIn Outreach for Recently Funded DACH Companies: Exact 3-Touch Sequence (2026)

Quick Answer: You’ve built a list of recently funded DACH companies using Origami (if not, read how to build that list here). Now use Origami’s built-in LinkedIn sequencer to turn that list into conversations — no CSV exports, no tool-switching. Refine your list, paste your templates or let the AI agent generate a personalised 3-touch sequence, then launch directly from the platform. Below, I’ll walk you through the exact process and share full message copy you can steal.

Refine Your List for LinkedIn Outreach

Your raw Origami list likely contains 200+ contacts with verified names, emails, titles, company size, funding round, location, and LinkedIn URLs. Before any sequence, segment and qualify ruthlessly.

1. Filter by Company Stage and Geography

In Origami, use the built-in filters:

• Funding amount: A €2M seed-stage company and a €50M Series C behave very differently. Split them into separate lists. For a generic “scale-up efficiency” message, stick to companies that raised €5M–€30M.
• Location: Check that the company is headquartered in Germany, Austria, or Switzerland. Sometimes a Berlin office is a satellite; prospect response drops if you’re pitching a team that can’t make local decisions.
• Industry: Exclude non-tech (e.g., funded biotech labs with no software purchasing power) unless your product specifically fits.

2. Filter by Role (the Most Important Cut)

Not everyone at a funded DACH company has budget or influence. Prioritise:

• For any solution: CxO (CEO, CTO, COO) at companies <100 employees; Head of/Growth leads.
• For sales/marketing tools: VP Sales, Head of Marketing, Revenue Operations.
• For dev tools: CTO, VP Engineering, Tech Leads.

Origami enriches each contact with their current title and LinkedIn URL. Spend 15 minutes clicking through high-fit profiles. Remove anyone who looks like a junior individual contributor or a non-relevant functionary.

3. Qualify the “Recently Funded” Signal

A 2026 funding round is a trigger, but check the date. If the round closed 11 months ago and the company hasn’t grown, the urgency is gone. In Origami’s list view, sort by funding date and keep only rounds from the last 6 months. This ensures you’re reaching them during the active spending window – ramping up team, tools, and processes.

Pro tip: If you have Sales Navigator, cross-reference the LinkedIn URL Origami provides to see recent job postings. A company hiring a Head of Sales or SDR team is a golden signal.

Now you should have a clean list of 50–150 highly relevant prospects. Ready for the sequence.

Craft Your 3-Touch LinkedIn Sequence for Recently Funded DACH Companies

Origami’s built-in sequencer gives you two options:

1. Paste your own templates – Write your own 3-touch sequence, set the delays (Day 1, Day 3, Day 7, or whatever cadence you like), and hit launch. You have full control over the copy.
2. Let the AI agent write it – Ask Origami’s AI agent to generate a personalised 3-day LinkedIn sequence automatically. It reads each lead’s profile data (title, company, industry, funding round) and crafts messages that feel customised to that person. Perfect when you don’t have time to tailor every touch.

Below is the full sequence I’ve used for DACH-funded targets. You can copy it verbatim, tweak the placeholder fields, or feed it into the AI agent as a style guide. The messages are in English because most DACH tech leaders are comfortable in English; if you want German versions, Origami’s agent can localise them with a simple prompt.

Touch 1 (Day 1): Connection Request + Note

This goes in the “Add a note” field when connecting. Keep it under 300 characters. I use the prospect’s first name and the funding round name to show I’ve done my homework.

Hi , Glückwunsch zur -Runde! Scaling  in DACH is exciting—curious how you’re solving  after the raise. Would be good to connect. –  

Why it works: It’s direct, acknowledges their achievement, and hints at a problem without pitching. DACH professionals appreciate brevity. The German “Glückwunsch” adds a subtle local touch without being overly familiar.

Alternative if you don’t know their specific pain point: use “hiring velocity” or “tooling efficiency” as a universal post-funding theme.

Touch 2 (Day 3): Follow-Up Message

Assuming the connection has been accepted, this message is sent as a direct message. It must deliver value, not just “bumping this up”.

Hi , glad we’re connected.

I talk to a lot of DACH founders post-round. The common stumbling block isn’t the product—it’s the speed of execution. Hiring, CRM setup, compliance (GDPR), and automating workflows can eat into that new cash faster than expected.

We built [Origami](https://origami.chat) to help B2B teams cut through that noise—finding and engaging leads automatically, so they scale sales without adding headcount.

Would a 15-min video call be a waste of time? Happy to show you how it works, no pitch.
– 

Why it works: It names the painful context specific to DACH (compliance, speed, team scaling), then frames a solution conversation as lightweight. The “waste of time” phrase is a soft negative that often prompts a reply.

Touch 3 (Day 7): Final Message (Soft Close)

This is your last touch. Don’t overstay your welcome. Offer the calendar, but make it easy for them to say no without guilt.

Hi , last message—promise.

If scaling efficiently post-funding is on your plate, I’d still be keen to explore whether we could help. My calendar’s here: . 

Otherwise, kein Problem—wishing you a smooth growth phase in . 

Best, 

Why it works: It respects their inbox, leaves a positive impression, and uses a touch of German (“kein Problem”) to reinforce cultural awareness. If they were interested earlier but busy, this often re-engages them.

Cadence notes: I set delays as Day 1 (connection request), Day 3 (first follow-up), Day 7 (final). You can compress to Day 1, Day 2, Day 5 if the list is extremely hot, but with DACH buyers a slightly slower, respectful cadence performs better.

Personalisation at scale: If you’re using Origami’s AI agent, it will automatically insert custom variables like actual job title, company size, and even mention the prospect’s recently posted content. This lifts reply rates noticeably.

Send and Track Your Campaign (Directly from Origami)

This is where most outreach tools break down—they give you a list, then you paste it somewhere else. Origami handles the full workflow.

Launch the Sequence Without Leaving the Platform

1. From your refined list in Origami, click “Create Sequence.”
2. Choose your template (paste one above or ask the AI agent to generate a 3-touch sequence).
3. Set delays between touches (Day 1, Day 3, Day 7).
4. Click “Launch.”

Origami’s built-in LinkedIn sequencer sends the connection requests and follow-up messages automatically. You stay in the same dashboard where you built and enriched the list.

Monitor Opens, Clicks, and Replies in Real Time

The dashboard shows you:

• Sent & delivered: Which messages went through.
• Opens and clicks: Who’s engaging (rare on LinkedIn messages, but InMails track opens).
• Replies: And, critically, the reply text—so you know exactly what they said.

What’s unique: while looking at a contact’s activity, you still see their full enriched profile — title, company, funding details, tools they use. So when someone replies “Interested, tell me more,” you instantly recall why you reached out. No flipping between five tabs.

Automatic Un-Enrollment Stops the Embarrassment

If a prospect replies — even with “not interested” — Origami immediately removes them from the sequence. You’ll never accidentally send a “just following up” after you’ve already booked a meeting. This sounds basic, but many sequencers miss it.

No CSV Exports, No Tool-Switching

From list-building to outreach, it’s one platform. The LinkedIn sequencer is included on all paid plans — you only pay for credits to enrich leads. The sending itself is free. That means you can run multiple sequences against fresh, newly enriched lists every week without extra spend on outreach software.

What Response Rates to Expect

When sending to recently funded DACH companies (filtered by recency and role), I typically see:

• Connection acceptance: 25–35%
• Reply rate (positive or negative): 8–12%
• Meeting conversion: about half of positive replies

These numbers assume your list is tight and your messaging is on point. If replies are low, iterate on the sequence copy first — test different pain points, shorter messages, or a more direct ask. If connection acceptance is low, revisit your list quality: you may be targeting roles that don’t use LinkedIn heavily or companies that are too large/early.

One Platform from List to Meeting

Origami doesn’t just spit out a CSV. You go from describing your ideal customer in plain English to having a fully enriched, qualified list, then to launching personalised LinkedIn sequences, all without leaving the tool. The sequencer is free on all paid plans — you just pay for the credits that enriched your leads. If you’re running outreach to recently funded DACH companies in 2026, this is the fastest way to turn fresh funding rounds into real pipeline.
