Summary
AJ Wilcox shares powerful LinkedIn Ads strategies contributed by the community. From smart click-to-impression bid switches to building video-first funnels that warm up leads before converting them, listeners revealed what’s working right now. One standout came from Paul Fairbrother, who used a video engagement retargeting approach to cut CPC from $35 to under $2. Other marketers shared how audience segmentation by company size and engagement-based remarketing are helping drive higher lead quality and lower acquisition costs.
You’ll also discover underrated plays like text ads for low-cost brand awareness, tapping into the Microsoft Ads integration to reach enterprise buyers on Bing, and using comment-gated organic-style posts to drive viral engagement. The biggest takeaway? Keep testing, keep learning—because LinkedIn Ads, when used strategically, can be as much a market research tool as a performance channel.
