do you connect with people on LinkedIn after you cold email?

Hi everyone,

I was wondering whether you guys connect with people after sending them a cold email. Under what circumstances would you do so? I have some scenarios in mind:

1) Alumni, I connect with them only if they recently graduated in the past 5 years. Unless the call goes well, I don't know if I should immediately connect once I send out a cold email, or if I should connect before sending it, or after we have a call.

2) Non-Alumni, again I connect if I had a great call. But again, don't know if I should connect with those even if the call went okay/good. Same issue with 1.

Thanks.
