Sponsored Content:
Repurpose content from your blog, website and social media channels.
Use video, audio or other rich media elements.
Develop an emotional connection by sharing human interest stories.
Do more than just share trending news. Add your insights into the mix to show off your brand’s thought leadership.
Sponsored Messaging:
If encouraging brand consideration, share blog posts, webinars, or industry trends and analysis.
When developing leads and trying to convert customers, promote product demos, tutorials and success stories or advertise an upcoming webinar or event.
Text Ads:
Despite the name of these ads, you won’t want to skip the visuals. Images are optional but they land better results.
Instead of including an object or logo, opt for a profile image when possible.
Video Ads:
According to LinkedIn, videos under 30 seconds saw a 200% lift in view completion rates, so keep them short and sweet.
Design videos for sound-off viewing and add subtitles.
Don’t save the best for last. Viewers drop off after the first 10 seconds.
Carousel Ads:
Use 3-5 cards to start, and test adding more cards later.
Create a carousel of content that speaks to a similar theme or break down a large piece of content into carousel cards.
Use visual storytelling to pique your audience’s interest.
Each carousel card description should include a CTA and clear, direct messaging.
Dynamic Ads:
Skip the brevity and be descriptive as possible in the main ad headline and text.
Test image layouts in advance of posting.
Include one clear message and CTA in each ad.
Don’t Recycle Content: Create unique ad copy specifically for LinkedIn to attract the relevant audience and avoid unqualified clicks. Maintain consistency with other marketing materials but tailor the content to fit LinkedIn’s audience and rules.
Do Your Best Above the Fold: Utilize the first 150 characters to grab the reader’s attention by answering the question, “What’s in it for me?” Match the above-the-fold text with the appropriate Call to Action (CTA) and use visually appealing images and emojis to increase engagement.
Create a Phenomenal Headline: Keep headlines within the 70-character limit and make them appealing. Explain the product’s main benefit, create curiosity with facts or questions, and test different versions to find the most effective one.
Use Interesting Formats and Figures Below the Fold: Be creative with the text that appears after the initial 150 characters to generate more interest. Use numbers to attract attention, create a sense of urgency with limited-time offers, and apply an interesting format with bullet points and short sentences.
Write in the Appropriate Style: Tailor the writing style to suit the business-oriented LinkedIn audience. Keep the first 150 characters short and simple, but don’t be afraid to use an exciting writing style if it aligns with your brand and audience.
