💡 3 B2B Strategy Tips
1) The LinkedIn Ads Framework To Drive Revenue More Efficiently: Anyone who has run LinkedIn ads knows they’re expensive. Unfortunately, that can often stop businesses continuing to invest in the platform. But the reality is – for many B2B organisations, the buying committee does spend some time on LinkedIn, and its targeting abilities is unrivalled firmographically.
If you want to prove the worth of LinkedIn Advertising, start by using it as a remarketing channel. The hot tip here is not just to retarget anyone that has visited your website or interacted with your assets! Instead, make sure you overlay the retargeting campaign with your Ideal Customer Profile.
For example, in our ads for The B2B Incubator on LinkedIn, we retarget people who have visited our website or engaged with our assets, AND are in companies 11-200 in size, have certain titles, and reside in the regions we’ve selected.
It’s made our LinkedIn Ads budget extremely targeted and is working wonders.
(P.S. we caught up with LinkedIn Ads expert Justin Rowe on Episode 82 of The B2B Playbook where he shared his full LinkedIn Ads framework with us.)
2) Report on Your Content Repurposing Multiplier: Content repurposing is all the rage for small, nimble B2B teams that need to punch above their weight. It’s what helps us create 1 YouTube Video, 8 YouTube Shorts, 1 podcast, 12 LinkedIn posts, 3 articles, and 1 newsletter every week. All in about 5 hours.
How do we do it? All our content is just a derivative (i.e. repurposed) from our podcast that we shoot every single week.
Your content repurposing multiplier shows how much more widely that piece of content is consumed if it’s repurposed, as opposed to it just existing as a standalone piece of content.
Let’s say for example a new article of yours gets 100 views on your website. If you repurpose the key ideas into LinkedIn posts, you could collect another 1,000 views there. Maybe you have an expert talk about those key ideas into the camera, and post them on YouTube. You pick up another 1,000 views.
Repurposing Multiplier = repurposed consumption / original consumption
So in the above case it’s (1,000 YouTube views + 1,000 LinkedIn views) / 100 Website Article views
Your multiplier is 20!
