Absolutely — LinkedIn is still very effective for lead generation in 2025, but the approach has shifted compared to a few years ago. What works best right now is:


Personalized Outreach – Instead of blasting generic messages, tailoring connection requests and follow-ups based on role/industry gets far higher response rates.
Content & Authority Building – Posting short, value-driven updates (case studies, industry tips, quick insights) positions you as a credible voice in your niche.
Smart Tools – Sales Navigator is still a must for filtering prospects, and pairing it with light automation (done carefully to avoid bans) can save a lot of time.
Engagement Boosting – Posts with higher initial reach/interaction tend to perform better in LinkedIn’s algorithm, so seeding some early engagement makes a big difference.


In short: LinkedIn is powerful when you combine organic content with targeted, quality outreach rather than relying on just one method.

Yes, LinkedIn remains effective for lead generation in 2025, especially with its advanced targeting tools. Personalized connection requests and content sharing, along with LinkedIn Sales Navigator, can help nurture leads. I also recommend leveraging LinkedIn groups and InMail for direct outreach to key decision-makers
 
Engage with their content, drop valuable comments, and send highly customized connection requests and messages. Offer real value, not just a pitch. Consistency and genuine connection building are what actually work now.

It is. People still tend to post one-time gigs on LinkedIn. I knew a guy with a custom scraper extracting 20-30 leads per day from LinkedIn.

Yes, linkedin is still one of the best platforms for lead generation in professional niches. people there are already focused on business, jobs and networking so leads feel more targeted.
 
LinkedIn can still work well for lead generation if the targeting is right I see better results from building relationships and posting useful content rather than sending large numbers of cold messages Consistency and a strong profile seem to matter more than fancy tools alone
 
Yes, LinkedIn is still super effective for lead generation but the strategy has changed a lot in the last couple of years.
 
I think linkedin works best when you focus on niche audiences. broad messaging usually performs weaker.
 
I have understood some things, but I would like to ask everyone how they usually greet when sending the first message to increase the response rate?
 
I’ve been experimenting with finding clients through LinkedIn over the past several months, and the results have been very positive. Based on my experience, I’m confident that LinkedIn is a highly promising platform for finding customers and generating business opportunities.
 
LinkedIn is still effective for lead generation especially in B2B markets The best results usually come from building relationships and sharing useful content rather than sending large numbers of connection requests Consistent networking and targeted outreach tend to work better than aggressive sales messages
 
It's still effective. My best results usually come from building relationships with my network by sharing useful content and actively engaging with other people's content. Consistency is key, people need to start seeing you and noticing you.

Still highly effective if you drop long pitches for ultra-short DM style hooks combined with multi channel Email, using Sales Nav for targeting and Clay or Expandi for safe automation.
 
I'm using LinkedIn to find clients, and I've found that it can be effective but only if you have the right strategy.
