ShapeFile Shapefile to GeoJsonGeoJSON conversion

I am working with OpenLayers. I want to convert ShapeFileShapefile into GeoJsonGeoJSON format and send it to browser to show with OpenLayers. But the problem is that when the size of my shape fileShapefile is so big like 60MB or bigger than 60Mb, then it is not convenient to send whole GeoJsonGeoJSON data to browser.

Anyone can help me, how can i minimize the GeoJsonGeoJSON file size while my ShapeFileShapefile size is still very large.

IsAre there any tools or techniques by which iI can encode GeoJsonGeoJSON data to minimize the size and send it to client side as well as decode this data to show in map.

Thanks
