LinkedIn is the dominant social media platform for people that are in a professional or a business mindset. There are numerous reasons why LinkedIn Ads can be a worthwhile venture for your business, and we know you’re here to seek out the answer to the question, “How can LinkedIn Ads benefit my business?”. So, let’s get straight to the answers!
How much should I invest in LinkedIn Ads?
Well, what are you buying when you pay for LinkedIn Ads? You’re purchasing for visibility to your niche audience. LinkedIn offers the perfect opportunity to target a business audience and your target demographic within that business audience. You can spend anywhere from £10 to £100 a day. If you have a potential reach of 50,000 in your target audience, the optimum amount to pay would be £100 a day. The good news is that LinkedIn’s cost per acquisition tends to be lower on average than Google Ads, but don’t disregard Google completely; LinkedIn and Google complement each other, but more on that later!
So you now understand why LinkedIn Ads can be a profitable investment for your business. But, hold your horses. We’re honest folk here at Geek Designs. LinkedIn does have some problems, but like every problem, there is always a solution.
Ad Fatigue
The clue is in the name, and you can create fatigue for your users if they are exposed to the same ad over and over again. Only running one Ad harms your campaign, not only through fatigue but in the long run for visibility. If you run one ad, LinkedIn will show that Ad only once to the user in a 48-hour period. However, if you were to run multiple Ad campaigns, with variations on each campaign (to avoid fatigue), LinkedIn will show those Ads more and within a 24-hour period.
Realistically we recommend businesses and marketing teams run between 6-12 LinkedIn Ads. However, this doesn’t mean you can set up a silly amount of campaigns. It is vital to remember that an Ad on any social platform interrupts the flow of the user. Whereas with Google, the user goes to Google to ask a question; therefore, the Ad is less of an interruption. This leads us nicely too…
Push & Pull
With LinkedIn, you’re pushing a message. With Google, you’re pulling the consumer in. They can be a deadly duo when used in conjunction with one another. LinkedIn offers Sniper Rifle-type targeting for audiences, precise and consistent.
In comparison, Google offers slightly less accuracy but still the same power. However, at the end of the day, LinkedIn is still a social media platform. Only some of the users are in a buying mindset. On Google, the user has a buying intent. Therefore the ads will relate to whatever they are looking for and potentially have a higher conversion rate, but what’s the point in creating ads without the visibility and awareness of YOU first?
Before you go…
Ask yourself these questions:
1. What are my business objectives?
2. Is my audience on LinkedIn?
3. Can LinkedIn ads help achieve my business objectives?

FAQs
Can LinkedIn Ads target specific companies?
While platforms like Facebook have many personal demographics, LinkedIn specialises in career-related filters.
You can get pretty smart about targeting your customer. Company size, title, industry and geographic targeting are available.
Who sees LinkedIn Ads?
Your ads will be visible to those LinkedIn members who belong to your targeting criteria. For example, if you set your target as “CEO” in Peterborough”, your ads will be shown to all the members who have written “CEO” on their profile and also live in Peterborough.
While LinkedIn ads might not be as apparent as ads on other platforms, such as Facebook, YouTube, and Google, nearly every user sees them daily.
Ads can appear in a number of areas on the site, such as Profile pages, the Feed Page and in your Inbox.
What are CPC and CPM?
CPC stands for cost per click, whereas CPM refers to cost per 1,000 impressions. These are two paying options for your ad. If you choose CPC, you need to pay only when someone clicks on your ad. For this reason, most people go for CPC.
CPM would suit you if clicks don’t matter to you, and you only need to increase your ad reach. CPM means you pay when your ad is shown to 1000 people, not when someone clicks.
