    Well, simply put, what did you do to achieve what is said above ? Whatever ii was, if it worked out so well for you why not replicate that approach..

    Apologies, the way it reads at the beginning of this sentence ''Im after using..''gives the impression that you have already generated leads using Linkedin & are looking for more info about how to do more of it.

    I may have some useful info on my hard drive, i'll take a look and reply back to you via pm..

    There are many ways you can land clients from LinkedIn, and the topic is too long to answer in a thread, but basically you need to do your research, create a killer LinkedIn Profile, and start providing value to other LinkedIn members, either one-on-one or via groups, posts, etc. Generally you need to build trust first and aim to convert users to customers based on that trust.

    I think a lot of people go to LinkedIn with the wrong attitude. It is called netWORKing for a reason, there is going to be some work involved in it, but it can pay off big time because it is easy to find key contacts on there.

      It's like with most "free methods": you need to invest time. I actually don't think there are such things as free methods. You're time worth money and with every method you invest either your money, your time or a combination of both.

      My personal opinion is premium is definitely a waste of time.
      As for how to do it, no one will actually come here and list 5 pages of how tos, the best way to go with this is get a couple of books from the marketplace, see which ones are the most appreciated by the users that got them, read those and after that you will definitely know what you need to do.

    Linkedin is a pretty good tool to generate highly targeted leads. Make sure your profile looks highly professional and that all of your skills are endorsed by lots of people.

    Message people everyday and try to interact with them.
