Bleed and maim mechanics

Hello,

I'm currently playing a bleed bow gladiator build. I want to try and mix in some of the cluster jewels from Delirium and found an interresting medium jewel.

This one gives the passive Compound Injury, which gives 50% increased damage with bleeding on maimed enemies.

I have the ascendancy talent Blood In The Eyes which maims on hit against bleeding enemies.

My question is:

How does these two passives work together?

I was hoping that since I have more than 100% chance to bleed, I would maim on the first hit, since the enemy will bleed, and then trigger Compound Injury as well, on the first hit, yielding 50% more damage.

But, do I have to hit the enemy multiple times, first to make it bleed, then hit again, to maim, and the again for the 3rd time, to get the 50% damage?

In Path of Building, my bleed DPS does not increase at all, when I socket the jewel and check the "Enemy is bleeding" option.

Any help would be appriciated.
