LinkedIn gives you no way to organize
Native LinkedIn has "starred" and "archived". Two states for hundreds of conversations. That's the entire system.
Everything in one pile
Clients, leads, recruiters, spam, all together
Important conversations buried under cold outreach and InMail noise. No way to separate signal from noise.
No filtering
You can't filter by anything that matters
No "show me only deals in negotiation" or "only candidates for the Senior PM role". Just one giant timeline.
Mental tracking
You're holding the system in your head
Who's at what stage? Which intro is still pending? Without a real system, things slip.
How labels work in Linbox
Labels live next to every conversation. Add them in one click, filter in one click, change them anytime.
- 1
Create a label, name it whatever
"Negotiation", "Senior PM", "Hot lead", "Newsletter spam". Whatever your brain likes. Pick a color too.
- 2
Tag conversations from anywhere
From the conversation view, from the inbox list, or with a keyboard shortcut. One click. Done.
- 3
Filter your inbox by label
Click any label to see only conversations with that tag. Combine multiple labels to narrow down further.
- 4
Labels stick across devices
Tag on your laptop, see it on your phone browser. Cross-device sync via the Linbox web app.
How real people use labels
Sales rep tracking a pipeline
Labels = deal stages. "Cold outreach", "In conversation", "Demo booked", "Negotiating", "Closed won". Move the label as the deal moves. Filter to see exactly where each prospect stands.
Recruiter juggling roles
Labels = role plus stage. "Senior PM · Screening", "Senior PM · On-site", "VP Eng · Offer out". Switch context in one click. Never lose track of where a candidate is.
