Invest the right way in LinkedIn ads

Sponsored by

Customers can’t buy your product if they don’t know you exist.

If you’re launching a new product or expanding into new verticals or markets, you’re going to have to invest in marketing your product(s) to the right people at the right time, with the right message.

This is why ABM is so important to our GTM efforts.

You’re prioritizing the accounts who would be the best customers for your new product or which accounts within an industry would be the best fit for one of your products or solutions based on data.

But prioritizing the accounts is only one piece of the ABM puzzle. You need to invest in the right channels to drive brand awareness, engagement and increase web traffic.

Outbound is obviously one channel, but LinkedIn ads should absolutely be the other based on it’s targeting capabilities.

While at Clari, I was responsible for our vertical expansion growth efforts.

When I say no one in these industries knew who Clari was, literally no one did.

So we had to develop our ABM strategy and invest in LinkedIn ads in order to get our product in front of the right accounts and right people.

Looking at the data, we could see these efforts were paying off.

Web traffic, including visits, bounce rate and session duration went up and to the right every single quarter. Meaning we were driving high quality visits.

Demo requests went up and to the right every quarter.

LinkedIn ad and engagement doubled industry benchmarks. And we could actually see our target personas “liking,” commenting, and sharing our ads.

Over the course of 2.5 years below are the results:

  • Each SDR hit quota every quarter

  • One SDR recognized as SDR of the quarter

  • 200% increase in web traffic YoY.

  • 2x growth in demo requests YoY.

  • Over $40m in qualified pipeline in 2.5 years.

  • Revenue increased 54% YoY.

Are LinkedIn ads the only channel to focus on? Heck no. But for us, and many others who are bringing new products to market or within new verticals, they are crucial to success.
