LinkedIn Advertising
LinkedIn Advertising is a great digital marketing channel to help B2B companies get their digital ads in front of the right people.

Want to find the right audience with LinkedIn?
Sponsored Content
This works exactly like Facebooks sponsored posts. It has the same look and feel of organic content, but it can be ‘boosted’ by adding a bit of budget behind it and getting it in front of more targeted eyes, meaning the target audience you have pre-determined when you created the ad.
LinkedIn Text Ads
This is as close as you can get on LinkedIn to Google Ads and Bing Ads. The LinkedIn text ads format works off a pay-per-click model and tend to feature on the sidebar of the platform. Unlike Google and Bing Ads, they cannot feature at the top of the page and therefore be the first thing a user sees
LinkedIn Sponsored InMail
LinkedIn’s Sponsored InMail is one of those strategies that can work if you don’t mind annoying a few people in the process. All LinkedIn profiles have a message service attached, and this strategy basically sends an automated message to their inbox with a generic outline of the service provided or product on offer.
The Right LinkedIn Campaign for Your Business

LinkedIn Targeting
Again, like Facebook and Instagram, LinkedIn offers specific targeted for paid advertising. But unlike Facebook and Instagram, LinkedIn is full of members who aren’t just looking for the next best meme to send to their friends. The community is full of like-minded individuals who are either looking for information to further progress their career, connect with professionals in a similar field or seeking a product/services to improve their business.
That’s why when you set up a targeted ads/post on LinkedIn, the chance of getting that ad/post in front of the right eyes is much higher than that of other social media platforms.
LinkedIn offers a range of pre-determined targeted fields which can created a specific audience group based on things like age, gender, professional background and so much more.

LinkedIn Advertising Costs
If you have used bidding platform such as Google or Facebook Ads in the past, then you are well aware that the advertising costs for such a platform is based solely on your budget and can, for the majority of the time, be a little or large as you like. But LinkedIn does have some set rules in place when it comes to bidding on advertisement placements:
- Budget for each campaign much be a minimum of $10
- $2 bid for CPC (Cost Per Click) or CPM (Cost Per Thousand Impressions) on Text Ads
- Sponsored Content has an optional feature of $10 total budget per campaign
What Is LinkedIn?
LinkedIn is a social networking platform, much like Facebook or Instagram. But unlike Facebook or Instagram, LinkedIn is for professionals, designed to help businesses and professionals make connections and share resumes and job postings.
Majority of large companies have a profile on LinkedIn, making it easier for them to reach out to potential future employees or contractors. For B2B companies, it is also a great platform to reach out to potential clients/customers and has been shown to be a great online marketing channel, with the average ROI for most companies being between $3.52 to $15.66 for every dollar spent (based off data from bizible). Now this is all subjective, but still, getting a minimum of 3x your investment isn’t half bad.
LinkedIn has over 675 million monthly users, all looking to make a professional connection. There are also 30 million companies active on LinkedIn, making LinkedIn a perfect channel for B2B marketing.
