Hey there, I’m Julieana Findlay, and since 2013 I’ve been helping business coaches, consultants, and B2B companies generate consistent, high-quality leads on LinkedIn using my proven system.


If you’re tired of cold calling, wasting hours online, or running ads that barely convert, this is for you.


Today, I’ll show you how my done-for-you LinkedIn lead generation system works — so you can either DIY it or hand it over to me and my team to run for you.


Whether you’re in Christchurch, Auckland, or anywhere in New Zealand, this approach has been tested and refined for over a decade.



Why Done for You LinkedIn Lead Generation Works


“Done for you” means exactly that. My team builds, manages, and optimises your LinkedIn client acquisition system so you don’t have to. It’s designed to turn LinkedIn into your personal lead-generating machine, while you focus on what you do best — serving clients.


Here’s what it includes:

  • Deep research into your ideal clients

  • LinkedIn profile optimisation tailored to your audience

  • Lead magnets, landing pages, and automated email funnels

  • Daily 1:1 outreach with genuine, human messages

  • Warm lead tracking and handover to you or your CRM


This approach works for:


  • Coaches and consultants

  • B2B service providers

  • Franchise businesses

  • Any business that wants predictable, high-quality leads

Why LinkedIn is Still the Best Platform for B2B Lead Generation


LinkedIn isn’t just a social network — it’s a goldmine for B2B lead generation, especially when done right:


✅ 80% of B2B social media leads come through LinkedIn. 

✅ It’s designed for professionals, so your ideal clients are already there. 

✅ Organic reach is still strong when you know how to use it. 

✅ Your profile can work as a sales page, not just a résumé.


But most business owners get it wrong:


  • Connection messages sound spammy.

  • Profiles read like résumés instead of client-attracting landing pages.

  • Outreach strategies are generic and low-converting.


A done-for-you LinkedIn system fixes that — giving you a predictable, human-first lead engine.



The 3-Step Done For You LinkedIn Lead Generation System


Here’s the blueprint I’ve refined since 2013 for clients in Christchurch and across New Zealand:


Step 1: Target Market Research — Who Are You Really Trying to Reach?


Everything starts with clarity on your audience. You can’t generate leads if you don’t know exactly who you’re speaking to.


We dig into:


  • Job titles and roles

  • Industries and company sizes

  • Geographic location (hello Christchurch!)

  • Pain points and challenges

  • How they consume content and make decisions


For example: If you’re a B2B consultant helping mid-sized Christchurch companies streamline operations, we find decision-makers in the right roles across local industries — not just sending connection requests randomly.


💡 DIY Tip: Map your Ideal Client Profile (ICP) and explore LinkedIn groups, polls, and posts to uncover what your audience struggles with most. This gives you insights into their language, pain points, and triggers.


Step 2: Build Your Digital Assets and Funnel — Your LinkedIn Sales Engine


Once we know your audience, we create a digital experience that converts:


  • Lead magnets (guides, checklists, or eBooks)

  • Landing pages with clear calls-to-action

  • Automated email sequences that nurture leads

  • CRM tracking for every interaction


The goal is simple: build trust before pitching. By giving value upfront, you position yourself as an expert and stay top-of-mind until your lead is ready to buy.


Mini Guide: 3 Types of Lead Magnets That Convert on LinkedIn


  1. Quick Tips PDF: 5–10 actionable steps your audience can implement immediately.

  2. Mini eBook or Guide: Deep-dive into solving one core problem your ideal client has.

  3. Checklist / Template: Practical tools they can use in their day-to-day work.


Step 3: LinkedIn Profile Optimisation + Human Outreach


Most LinkedIn profiles fail because they don’t speak to the client. Your profile should act like a landing page:


  • Headline: What you do + who you help + result

  • About section: Written for clients, not recruiters

  • Keywords to help LinkedIn show your profile

  • Calls-to-action and social proof

  • Optimised services and featured sections


Then comes the outreach:


  • First connection message:

Hi [First Name], I noticed your work with [company/initiative]. I’d love to connect and share insights. – Julieana


  • Follow-up (Day 2–3):

Hi [First Name], I have a free copy of my book, LinkedIn Leads, for business leaders like you. Would you like me to send it over?


Once they say yes, they’re added to your CRM and email funnel — turning LinkedIn connections into real opportunities.

Bonus Insights: Maximising Your LinkedIn Lead Generation


While the main system covers the fundamentals, there are several advanced strategies and considerations that can help business leaders like you get even more from LinkedIn.


Think of this as a bonus guide to supercharging your done-for-you lead generation.


1. Crafting a Compelling LinkedIn Presence


Your LinkedIn profile is more than just a résumé—it’s your lead-generating storefront. Even small tweaks can make a huge difference:


  • Headline Optimization: Instead of just stating your job title, highlight what you do and who you help. Example: “Helping Christchurch Coaches and Consultants Generate High-Quality LinkedIn Leads Without Ads.”

  • About Section: Tell a story. Make it about your client’s problems and how you solve them, not just your credentials.

  • Visual Appeal: A professional profile photo, banner, and featured content build credibility instantly.


A done-for-you system ensures every element of your profile is strategically designed to convert visitors into prospects.


2. Leveraging Connection Strategies


Many business leaders struggle with knowing who to connect with and how. Done-for-you systems take the guesswork out:


  • Targeting by Job Role & Industry: Identifying decision-makers and influencers in your niche.

  • Geographic Targeting: For Christchurch-based businesses, this means connecting with local prospects who are more likely to engage and convert.

  • Engagement Before Requesting a Connection: Liking, commenting, or referencing a prospect’s content makes your request more personal and effective.


A strategic approach to connections ensures that your outreach is efficient, relevant, and human.


3. The Importance of Messaging Sequences


It’s not enough to simply connect. How you communicate with prospects determines whether they engage or ignore you.


A done-for-you system uses carefully crafted messaging sequences:


  1. Initial Connection: Personalised and low-pressure.

  2. Value Offer: Free guide, checklist, or your book “LinkedIn Leads.”

  3. Follow-Up Nurturing: Insights, resources, or mini-case studies delivered over time.


This process nurtures leads without feeling salesy, and ensures your connections are warm and ready to engage.


4. Using LinkedIn Content to Build Authority


Content is your silent salesperson. Done-for-you services ensure your content supports your lead generation goals:


  • Weekly Tips: Short, actionable advice that demonstrates expertise.

  • Case Studies: Real results build credibility.

  • Video Snippets: LinkedIn prioritises native video, increasing visibility.


By combining content and outreach, your profile becomes a magnet for leads while maintaining a professional image.


5. Lead Magnets That Work


Lead magnets convert connections into leads. Examples include:


  • Checklists or guides tailored to your niche.

  • Short, value-packed eBooks that address common challenges.

  • Mini-courses or webinars that offer actionable insights.


A done-for-you system handles creation, delivery, and follow-up, ensuring that each interaction moves prospects closer to becoming clients.

6. Analytics for Continuous Improvement


A professional system tracks metrics like:


  • Connection acceptance rate

  • Response rate to outreach messages

  • Click-throughs on lead magnets

  • Conversion rate from connection to client


By analysing this data, the system can refine targeting and messaging, improving results over time. You can see exactly where your leads are coming from and which strategies perform best.


7. The Value of Personalisation at Scale


Automation without personalisation is a mistake. Done-for-you services combine:


  • Spreadsheet tracking to ensure no lead is lost

  • Human-first messaging that still feels personal

  • Consistent nurturing that builds trust over weeks or months


This balance allows you to scale your outreach without losing authenticity, making your LinkedIn presence both efficient and effective.


8. Why Geography Matters


Focusing on Christchurch or your local region has real advantages:


  • Local connections are more likely to respond and meet in person.

  • You can reference regional events, businesses, or initiatives in messages.

  • Leads feel more connected to someone “on their turf,” improving engagement and trust.


Done-for-you systems ensure location-based targeting is built into every message and campaign.


9. Overcoming Common LinkedIn Mistakes


Even experienced users often make errors that hinder results:


  • Sending generic connection requests.

  • Overly sales-focused messaging.

  • Profiles that read like résumés rather than client-focused landing pages.

  • Failing to nurture connections consistently.


A done-for-you service removes these obstacles, giving you a predictable and reliable lead pipeline.


10. Scaling Your System Without Losing Quality


Growth is only useful if it doesn’t dilute quality. Done-for-you systems:


  • Maintain the personal touch in all messages

  • Scale outreach to hundreds of prospects weekly

  • Integrate content, messaging, and follow-ups seamlessly


This approach keeps your leads warm, engaged, and ready to become clients — even as your network grows.


11. Testimonials and Social Proof


Social proof is critical for LinkedIn lead generation:


  • Highlight client successes with measurable outcomes.

  • Use recommendations and endorsements strategically.

  • Display case studies in your profile and outreach.


Done-for-you services automate this, turning your credibility into a conversion tool without additional effort on your part.


12. Final Thoughts on Done-for-You LinkedIn Lead Generation


Investing in a done-for-you system isn’t just about convenience. It’s about:


  • Efficiency: Saving hours each week.

  • Consistency: Generating leads reliably, week after week.

  • Expertise: Using a system proven over a decade of experience.

  • Local Advantage: Targeting the right clients in Christchurch or your region.


Whether you’re a coach, consultant, or B2B business, the right system can transform LinkedIn from a platform you hope works into a 24/7 lead generation machine.
