Definition

What is LinkedIn ads?

LinkedIn Ads management is the planning, targeting, creative and optimisation of paid campaigns on LinkedIn, typically used by B2B companies to reach decision-makers by job role, seniority, company and industry.

LinkedIn is expensive per click, and still often the most efficient B2B channel, because no other platform lets you target a finance director at a 200-person logistics company with the same precision. The cost means waste hurts more. We keep targeting tight, lead with useful content rather than hard sales asks, and connect leads to your CRM so we can optimise towards deals, not form fills.

Who is it for?

  • B2B SaaS

    Reaching the roles that evaluate, use and approve software purchases.

  • Account-based marketing

    You have a defined list of target companies and want to reach their buying committees.

    Reaching candidates by skills, experience and location.

Why offers matter more than ads on LinkedIn

Most people on LinkedIn aren't ready to book a demo today. Asking them to do so straight away produces few, expensive leads. A useful offer (a practical guide, a benchmark report, a template, a short webinar) gives decision-makers a reason to engage now and puts you on their shortlist for later.

We plan campaigns in layers: content that builds familiarity with the right accounts, followed by retargeting with stronger offers to people who have already engaged. The audience gets smaller and warmer at each layer, and the cost per qualified lead falls.

What we connect to your CRM

Pipeline reporting needs leads and outcomes in one place.

  • Lead form submissions sent instantly to HubSpot, Salesforce or Pipedrive
  • Campaign and ad source recorded on each lead
  • Lead qualification status fed back for reporting
  • Offline conversions shared with LinkedIn where supported

How do we report on LinkedIn ads?

Clicks and impressions say little about B2B results. Our reports follow leads through your CRM: how many were qualified by sales, how many became opportunities, and the pipeline value influenced by each campaign. Because B2B deals take time to close, we look at these numbers over rolling periods rather than judging a single month.

Each report also notes which audiences, offers and ads performed, what we changed and what we'll test next, so budget decisions are based on revenue potential, not the cheapest form fill.

Tools, and what shapes your quote

Pricing is based on your project and agreed in your quote. These are the things that move it.

LinkedIn Ads pricing factors

Offer creationProducing guides, reports or webinars to promote adds content work.
CRM integrationConnecting forms and outcomes to your CRM adds set-up.
Creative volumeMore ad variations each month mean more production.

Common mistakes to avoid

What we see go wrong most often, and how a good project avoids it.

  • Audiences that are too broad

    Targeting whole industries without role or seniority filters wastes expensive impressions.

  • Asking for a demo too soon

    Cold audiences rarely book calls. Lead with value, then retarget.

  • Leaving LinkedIn Audience Network on by default

    It extends ads beyond LinkedIn. Test it deliberately rather than by accident.

  • Measuring leads, not pipeline

    Cheap leads that never become opportunities aren't a win. Track outcomes in the CRM.

Frequently asked questions

Isn't LinkedIn too expensive?

Cost per click is high compared with other platforms, but the precision can make cost per qualified lead competitive for B2B deals with meaningful value. We start with tight targeting and a useful offer to test that for your market.

What budget do we need?

It depends on audience size and your goals. We recommend a budget large enough to gather meaningful data across a small number of campaigns, and estimate it with you in the consultation.

Can you target specific companies?

Yes. We upload lists of target companies or contacts as Matched Audiences, then reach decision-makers at those accounts.

What are Thought Leader Ads?

They let you promote posts from individuals, such as your founder or experts, as ads. Content from a person often earns more trust than a company page post.

Do you write the content we promote?

Yes. We write ad copy and can produce guides, reports and document ads, or work with your existing content.

Can leads go straight into our CRM?

Yes. Lead Gen Form submissions can sync to HubSpot, Salesforce and other CRMs, so sales can follow up quickly.

Who owns the ad account?

You do. Campaigns run in your Campaign Manager account with your payment method.

Is ad spend included?

No. Ad spend is paid to LinkedIn directly; our fee covers strategy, creative and management.

How long before we see leads?

Ads can reach your audience once approved. B2B sales cycles are long, so we judge success on lead quality and pipeline over several months, not on the first weeks.

Can you run LinkedIn ads for recruitment?

Yes, with campaigns targeting candidates by skills, experience and location, pointing to your careers page or job posts.

Is there a minimum contract?

No. Management is month to month.

Can you promote our webinars or events?

Yes. LinkedIn suits event and webinar promotion; we can drive registrations with Lead Gen Forms or LinkedIn Events and follow up with attendees and no-shows through retargeting.
