Most of us are on LinkedIn, and a lot of us are only there for marketing purposes. I know that when I was on LinkedIn every day it was fun, but there was no instant gratification from getting sign ups because they were rare.
Now was I doing something wrong or am I just in a saturated LinkedIn niche where everyone pushes the same thing? I'm not 100% sure to be honest. I did all the right things, I built up connections and messaged all of them once they connected with me. I followed up with anyone who responded just to show I wasn't an automated system. But for every 1,000 people that I connected to, I probably had 1 sign up. And I'm sure if you have software to build connections and message them you'll be able to automate this a bit, but I haven't found anything that worked well.
I'm in the SEO, Web Design and Online Marketing niche and whenever I post something I see that there are a few hundred other people doing the same methods I am. I have a feeling that I'm just getting flooded out because of all the competition on there.
I've played around with the PPC platform on LinkedIn but found it was pretty pricey and stopped because it wasn't pulling in the amount of clients to make it worth continuing 
So how do you generate sales or leads using LinkedIn? I'm really curious and I want to get back into it now that it was bought out by Microsoft. I think they're going to tweak a few things and hopefully they do it in a good way so that all the pages aren't just flooded
Any information to help me out is greatly appreciated
Thanks,
Razzy
yeah, I understand that. I just don't have the time so I've been looking for a VA that can do it all for me lol.
My profile is pretty optimized. I treated it like I would a business card. I set it up to show exactly what I can do and also showed my awards and previous jobs.
I think I just need to be more active :(

When you say "connected to" what do you mean by this specifically? You just followed them you mean? I ask because following people isn't enough. You need to get right in their face. Comment on their stuff on their profile, share it so they can see it. And send them a message. Don't send them a message with an offer though. Ask them some question that they can relate to on a personal level like "Hi, are you having any success on here? What sort of things are you using it for?" That kind of stuff. Get inside their head. Then when they're on your level, then send them your offers, tell them what you do and how you can help them. Give them your links to your site and that and tell them they can purchase there what they're looking for. You might need to be a bit relentless but not too pushy. Keep updating them every day if they haven't purchased from you yet. Ask them if they've had time to think about it or if they have any questions. But do push for them to purchase at the same time. You need to be a little pushy but not too much. Just enough to make them think, you know what, this guy isn't going to let up, I'll purchase just to shut him up! But only if you've done the communication thing first and you already know what they're looking for. As said, it's not enough just to follow people. You need to get inside their head. You need to be like the [b]Cable Guy[/b].

Well if I connect with people in the same profession I'll never get a client lol.
"Hey Jim! I know you do the same thing as I do, but you should pay me for my services, ok?"
I don't think that will work well lol :D

Hey there, I haven't been too active on LinkedIn lately because we had a few large clients need all the bells and whistles for their jobs. But now I'm back for a little while
Lmao no offense taken Cristian :D
I'm in the process of adding 100 more people today to see if I can get a client :D
Earlier today I messaged 100 people in 3 different group messages saying something like

I haven't logged back in to see if I've gotten any responses, hopefully they all open their check books and want to pay me to do stuff :D

Yeah, I see what you're saying. I was just testing out grouping people together and sending out one message. I put 30 to 35 people in a group and sent out that message, that's why I couldn't personalize it much :D
I do personalize my one on one messages and those seem to do much better, like you said. It's more personal and I'm talking to them about their own website so they know I've looked it over :D
Right now I'm doing a lot of testing to see what works best. But right now it seems that the personalized one on one messages are working better than the bulk group messaging :D

I have started a LinkedIn group but there are so many to compete with that it takes forever to gain any momentum. I mean if I had a few hours a day of free time I would definitely get back into it and destroy LinkedIn in hopes that I would get a few clients, but my current work load doesn't allow it :(
