Remotion: The LinkedIn Ads Agency

I’ve spent the past decade helping B2B tech companies turn LinkedIn into their most powerful growth channel.

As Founder of Remotion, I work with some of the fastest-growing B2B brands in the world - from scale-ups to soon-to-be category leaders. We specialize in LinkedIn Ads for B2B tech, because focus matters. 

Our clients don’t need another generalist agency. 
They need a partner who knows how to build demand, generate pipeline, and strengthen brand with the people who actually buy.

What sets us apart:

1️⃣Proven expertise - 10+ years running LinkedIn Ads, managing millions in spend every month.
2️⃣Strategy + execution - not just button-pushing, but building the growth engines behind tomorrow’s tech giants.
3️⃣Founder-led approach - I stay close to the work, the clients, and the craft.

If you’re building a B2B tech company and want to:
Generate consistent pipeline
Build a brand your market trusts
Run LinkedIn Ads that actually work

Then you’re in the right place.

Stop running LinkedIn ads from your company page.

I know that's a bold statement coming from someone who runs a LinkedIn ads agency.

But after managing millions in ad spend across 30+ B2B accounts, I can tell you - your company page ads are invisible.

Here are the real numbers:
Traditional sponsored content from company pages → 0.5-1% engagement rate, $8-15 per engagement.

Thought Leader Ads from actual people → 10-18% engagement rate, under $1 per engagement.

Same budget. Same audience. Completely different results.

We had one client go from a $4,270 CPSQL to $923 in a single month. The only change? We shifted budget from company page ads to promoted posts from their leadership team.

The reason is simple - people trust people more than they trust logos. 

A genuine take from your VP of Marketing on a problem your buyer actually faces will always outperform a polished banner with your product name on it.

But most teams try TLAs and get mediocre results because they miss the details that matter:
→ The hook has to stop the scroll in 2 seconds or you've lost them 
→ After a freq. of 2 your ad is starting to die — you need fresh content weekly 
→ If the post doesn't match where you send people, the click is wasted 
→ You can't just boost a company update and call it a Thought Leader Ad

I broke down exactly how this works and what we're seeing across our clients in the video below.

And if you're spending $10K+ a month on LinkedIn without seeing real pipeline - DM me. 

We'll look at your numbers and tell you exactly what the shift would look like. 

No deck. No fluff.

Every weekend I shut everything off and spend time with my family. 
That's non-negotiable.

This Saturday, we drove south to see the red anemones blooming in the Negev - fields of red stretching out as far as you could see, the kids running through them without a care in the world.

There's something about standing in the middle of that which puts things in perspective. I spend my weeks thinking about click-through rates, campaign performance, pipeline numbers. 

All of it matters. 
But none of it is this.

The anemones bloom for a few weeks, then they're gone. 
You either make the drive or you miss it.

I think the reason I'm able to show up sharp on Sunday is because I actually leave it all behind on Friday and Saturday. 

Not as a luxury - as a discipline.

Want to know something funny?
The way most of my clients find me is the exact same strategy I run for them.

A Head of Marketing at an AI company in Berlin booked a call with me last month. 

First thing she said: "That's how I found out about you - your content popped up on my feed."

She didn't click a banner ad. 
She didn't download a whitepaper. 
She didn't get a cold email from an SDR.

She read a post. It resonated. 
She went to our site. She booked a call.
That's a hand raiser.

And it took maybe 3-4 weeks from first impression to that call. 

Not 6 months. Not 12 months. Not a 14-step nurture sequence.

This is what I mean when I say the playbook has changed.

I could have spent $150 per lead getting 500 people to download a PDF about LinkedIn ads best practices. Sent them a 5-email drip. Had someone call them. 

Maybe 2% would have taken a meeting. 
Maybe.

Instead, I wrote posts about what I actually see on calls every day. 

I promoted them to the right people. 
And the right people came to me.

I eat my own dog food.

And if you want your marketing to work the same way → just shoot me a DM.

This is a story all about how, the way we manage LinkedIn Ads flipped upside down...

Thought Leader Ads are probably the most interesting thing that happened to LinkedIn Ads since the advent of the Leadgen Form - probably even more so - and they push all of us in the right direction of actually telling our brand narrative over trying to capture no-intent leads. 

It took us a little while to figure out exactly how this ought to be used - but once we cracked it, it's become the most powerful tool in our toolbox.

Here's the story 👇

A couple of years ago, LinkedIn launched Thought Leader Ads - a format that lets brands promote individual people's posts with paid media, instead of 

Open article: How We Cracked Thought Leader Ads by Gabriel Ehrlich • 4 min read

Is that a new ad format I see on the right-hand side? Or will just be for LinkedIn?

When 1-to-1 ABM goes wrong... 
Hey Iterable marketing team, I don't work at DuckDuckGo - but if you want LinkedIn Ads that reach the right companies, that's what we do at Remotion: LinkedIn Ads Agency.

It's not that gated content never works. 
It can, it does.

But if those leads don't receive a proper outreach from BDRs - you're burning cash.

"1,000 leads. 1 meeting."

That was the reality for one of our enterprise clients running LinkedIn lead gen with gated content.

Over a thousand people downloaded their ebook. 
Sounds like a win, right?

But when sales followed up, almost nobody wanted to talk. 
The one meeting they did get? Went nowhere.

Here's what we've learned:
Gated content attracts people who want the content - not people who want your product.

When we shifted this client to Thought Leader Ads - real people sharing real insights - the goal changed from "capture a lead" to "earn their attention."

Because the buyers you actually want? 

They're probably not filling out forms for your ebook. 
They're scrolling past it. 

But they will stop for a post from someone they find credible.

Stop measuring downloads. 
Start measuring influence.

Read this. 
Then send it to your CEO.
Then ask them again if they'd like to invest in thought leadership.

Head of Marketing @ Peridio ⚡ Demand × Content × AI x Grit

$970,000 in pipeline this quarter from executive content. 🤯 

I'm going to be honest. I didn't expect that number. Not yet. Not this fast.

so, let me back up.

When I joined Peridio, one of the first things I brought up in quarterly planning was executive content. Not as a "nice to have." As a real growth lever.

Our CEO talks to customers, investors, and partners every day. He has insights no one else on the team has. If we could turn even a fraction of those conversations into content, the compound effect would be massive.

Simple logic. Waaaay harder to execute. (IYKYK 🙃)

You can't just hand an exec a content calendar and say "go." They're busy. They have 47 other priorities. If content feels like homework, it dies on the vine (i know this from experience .. lol)

What worked for us:
→ We built the workflow around his rhythm, not mine. Voice memos, quick riffs, things he was already saying in meetings and calls. Low friction = everything.
→ I stopped ghostwriting (absolutely futile) and started guiding (pestering?). Exec content has to sound like them. My job was to shape it, not replace his voice. 
→ We got the messaging right first. We spent the better part of two quarters soul-searching on positioning in 2025.
→ We made it formulaic, not robotic. A repeatable process so it wasn't a creative exercise every single time. Idea → rough shape → refine → post.

The result? Our CEO now manages this entirely on his own. He's posting nearly 5x a week. I mean, damn.

If you're trying to build an exec content engine, here's where I'd start:
1//  Record your CEO for 15 minutes a week. Just have them talk about what they're seeing. 
2//  Find the 2-3 topics they light up about. That's your content territory. 
3//  Build a process that takes less than 30 minutes of their time per week, total. 
4//  Be patient. Month one feels slow. The compounding kicks in around month three. 

Is anyone else building an exec content program right now? I'd love to hear what's working (or not) for you.

Founder; I want to take my LinkedIn serious this 2026
Me; I would recommend we test these 4 formats.

LinkedIn provides up to 9 content formats; 

- text
- polls 
- image 
- video
- event
- carousels
- document
- celebrations
-write article (on desktop)

Over my 8+ years on this platform, I not tried two

The celebrations feature got a revamp, but not tried it yet

I have attended several LinkedIn live events, not held one yet

When I talk to founders on the best format to use,
I always boil to 4 main ones. 

The first reason, they have been proven to work
The second one is LinkedIn algo prioritizes them

A few days ago I shared a post on looking into 300+ LinkedIn Creators.

Aside from understanding their LinkedIn positioning, I was noting their primary content formats.

Here is the breakdown; 

1. Text only 

Chris Walker, & Adam Robinson grew to 100k+ using text posts mainly.

And if you are starting out, text post is the best format. 

Importantly, the first 3 lines can make or break the post

I would add, you should consider text structure as well.

2. Image + text caption

If you have noticed, I have boiled my posts to this format.

With a twist though, maxing out on the 3,000 characters

And leaning heavily into on brand visual designs. 

The two factors are crucial for the algo currently
One is 'hacking' the Dwell Time metrics 
Two is about standing out on the Feed

Chris Donnelly, Anthony Pierri, Pierre Herubel
Jake Ward, Vincent Pierri, Nick Broekema 

These are of the best Creators to shadow on visual images/infographics

3. Video + text caption

This format has been a hit & miss for me
Even LinkedIn is indicating mixed feelings 

One quarter, video content is next frontier
The next quarter, my video feature is no more

But if you extrapolate from other platforms
Video is the language of the internet

For LinkedIn, think long form video 
With LinkedIn ads clients, long form does better
Additionally, the platform now has 'total watch time' analytics

One interesting trend am seeing with B2B videos,
Is the rise of video-first LinkedIn B2B Creators
They are contracted to create videos for brands

Ademola Adelakun, Connor Lewis, Todd Clouser
Louis Butterfield, Oyinko K., Alex Sheridan 

These are some example Creators on my feed.

4. Documents

In my experience, this one is a hit or miss format
It's worth testing though. 

Eddie Shleyner does really well with the format
So Jake, Anthony, and Nick that I have mentioned above.

The key difference am seeing boils down to design

The other formats are on demand basis.
Matt Lakajev does well with live events
Andy Mewborn is winning with Polls 

Am putting a 100 examples swipe file.
Comment ' Format ' and I will share it with you
