I think persistence and politeness are very important with LinkedIn as this is not a place to hassle or spam anyone. (Even the LIONs who amass gazillions of contacts run into trouble with people not liking their approach.) I've dipped my toe into the Q&A section of LinkedIn but I can see I've a ways to go - some commenters must've outsourced the work judging by the volume they get through lol!! Working at Q&A for niche markets (or even companies) sounds a very interesting approach. With some luck and over time one of these folks might be your conduit to a specific person within a target organization. @Simon – great article!
