Is it okay to send this meeting request on LinkedIn instead of email?

If you copy a generic template and only swap the industry

What metric should I mention to a Media Procurement Officer?

Lead with CPM, fill, and campaign delivery against IO. That's the language this buyer already reports. If you can't connect your email to flights that stall, brand-safety scares, and follow-up that reads like leftover kit copy, you're asking them to do the translation work. They won't.
