No leads from LinkedIn in months?
(Most people make these 7 mistakes)
And wonder why nothing works.
Are you making these mistakes too?
Most LinkedIn users struggle to generate leads.
It's often due to simple, avoidable errors.
Here are the common pitfalls and how to fix them:
1. Selling too hard.
→ Feels like spam, right?
→ Give 80% value.
→ Ask 20% of the time.
2. No real value.
→ If it’s all about you, no one cares.
→ Teach.
→ Explain.
→ Share insights.
3. Posting like a ghost.
→ Then dumping 5 posts in a day.
→ Post 3–5 times weekly.
→ Use a schedule.
4. Not building a network.
→ No network = no reach.
→ Engage before posting.
→ DM with context.
5. Sounding robotic.
→ Zero story, zero spark.
→ Use contrast.
→ Be human.
→ Speak real.
6. Ignoring comments.
→ That’s where deals begin.
→ Reply.
→ Ask follow-up questions.
→ Keep the thread alive.
7. Acting like it’s Instagram.
→ Save the flexing for stories.
→ Post the process.
→ Be honest.
→ Share the real journey.
Fix these.
And LinkedIn starts working.
