I’m currently designing a signals-based outbound system to sit on top of a client’s LinkedIn ad campaigns.
Here’s what I’m building 👇

1. Turning social engagement into conversations

Their thought leader ads get a steady flow of reactions/comments.
So we’ll automatically pull all that engagement into Trigify → send it to Clay for ICP checks → and then warm contacts go into a small HeyReach sequence (with an Instantly email fallback).

2. Fast follow-up for content + demo leads

Content downloads and demo requests will go into short HeyReach sequences with:
 • Connection request
 • InMail
 • A quick email via Instantly

Each lead type gets slightly different messaging, but the idea is the same: respond quickly while the intent is warm.

3. Company-level engagement → warm outbound

LinkedIn shows which companies engage with your content.

We’ll collect these accounts, enrich them in Clay and run a warm:
 • Email sequence (Instantly)
 • LinkedIn connection sequence (HeyReach)

4. Website visitors → warm outbound

Anyone hitting the website (via your tracking tools) goes straight into:
 • A warm email flow
 • A LinkedIn connection flow

The goal here is to capture any existing demand in the market using the above as signals.

I have a LinkedIn ads client with a super low lead gen form fill (for a demo) to actually booking in the calendar ratio. 
Close to 0%.

Most ppl say, ‘oh that’s because lead gen forms don't work’.

Honestly, that is not the reason. 

I have multiple clients where we use lead gen forms, and the demo-to-booking-to-turning-up rate is over 50%. 

When i dug deeper into this client, turns out the SDR was on holiday, and when they are not on holiday, the follow up was super week.

They follow up with just an email like a day later...
...and thats it. then they call it a day. 
and come back to us saying lead gen forms are sh$t. 

If you want this ratio to work you need to have the full follow up. 
Here is what i suggest:

1. Set up an automation where leads get pinged to slack so the SDR can follow up with in minutes / or hours not days. 

2. They need to follow up with a connection request/ email right away thanking them for booking in and making sure they actually scheduled. 

3. If there is no answer then should follow up the next day with an inmail message. 

4. Some of the best ratios i have seen is if they call the contact just to secure the time of the demo. 
This call part honestly works super well. 
Just a quick ‘hey i see you signed up for a demo, when is a good time to do it’ type of call. 

5. Have really good marketing email automation. a few emails over the next few days. 
Try to keep it helpful, good content to keep them interested. 

Without a good follow up lead gen forms can under perform.

Matching your LinkedIn ads budget to your audience size matters a lot

When the budget is small compared to your TAM, what i love to do is scrape a list which has an extra layer of intent signals on top. 

So instead of targeting all B2B SaaS companies (for me for example)…

...maybe b2b saas which is actively hiring for a specific role, 
or just got funded or is using your competitor 
or has some new technology they just added to their site. 

Things like…

B2B SaaS + funded in last 90 days
B2B SaaS + hiring for GTM roles
B2B SaaS + hiring for RevOps roles
B2B SaaS + installed HubSpot in last 30 days
B2B SaaS + increased LinkedIn ad spend
B2B SaaS + new CMO in last 90 days
B2B SaaS + expanded to US/EU recently
B2B SaaS + launched a new product
B2B SaaS + attending SaaStr
B2B SaaS + trending on G2


Layering in this extra layer of intent can be quite powerful to make sure that small budget hits the highest intent audience rather than spraying and praying. 

I just tried this on our internal account and performance increased quite a bit. Will release this month's results on Monday.

This month I started targeting a list + intent (with my Linkedin ads)
...this dropped my cost per scheduled sales call from £333 to £184.

If you have a large enough TAM, then try focusing your linkedin ads budget layered in with an intent. 

My intent was recently funded B2B SaaS. 

Trying some lists with companies with open job roles related to demand gen. 

only works with large enough TAMs where you can segment your audience. 

Full results coming tomorrow for the months results

Here is how in November we dropped our cost per sales call from $441 to $243
We spent $3,230 on LinkedIn ads for Kiin.co - Linkedin Ads Agency.
Here are the results 👇

This month we spent more and the budget was super concentrated on just one ad initiative:

Thought leader ad ➜ landing page (asking for email) ➜ ridiculously strong follow-up.

➜ our cost per call dropped by close to half
➜ cost per lead stayed roughly the same: $18.82
➜ 8 phone calls scheduled
➜ 2 clients acquired at roughly $1,600 CAC (worth $45,000–$65,000 LTV)
➜ increased the lead-to-sales-call from 3.75% to 7.69%

So the thing that changed most between October and November is the lead-to-sales-call rate nearly doubled, which basically dropped the cost per scheduled call by half.

So what happened here???

I think the main thing is that i got a list of companies with an intent signal on top.

The cost per lead from this list was very similar, but the big change was that way more of them actually wanted to speak with me about LinkedIn ads 
(I've converted 2 so far, maybe more in the next months).

The second thing I started doing is not only following up with a LinkedIn connection request / message but also with an email.

The follow-up email included more content about how we work and our strategies, and asked them if they wanted a free audit.

I think converting 7.69% of leads to scheduled calls is elite level.

But one thing Omar Aboushady and I chatted about is including a quick call step. 
We’ve seen this work super well with clients. 

Will add this in January and let you know how it does.

11% of ppl who watched my long-form Linkedin ads video…
…clicked my CTA to book a call 👇
Here’s how I make long-form video for B2B companies that ppl actually watch (and convert).

I send every new…
+ prospect
+ lead
+ anyone who engages with me
+ my Linkedin ads (especially rtg)
+ anyone who signs up for my assets gets redirected

...basically any excuse to send this video to my ICP.

Watching the analytics, ppl watched over 45% of the videos on average.
I go over this from time to time, and the ones who convert often watch 100%.

Some ppl watch 2–3 times (I see you 😅)

what’s even crazier is that 5% of the ppl watching are clicking my CTA (book a call with me).

I have another video, watched a lot less (162 times) but the CTA was clicked 11% of the time 😱

not all of them actually book,
but that’s pretty insane!

Here is how I recommend you make a high-impact video:

Firstly don’t make it a webinar.
Secondly don’t make it basically just a demo.

1. Packaging of the video is everything:

you need to package it up in a really good way. the packaging is everything.

We are marketers, so how do we sell ppl on this?

Start with the title and work backwards.

For me, it was pretty simple, it’s just our internal system on how we run Linkedin ads for clients.

I packaged it as…
$1.2 million Pipeline: our exact Linkedin ads strategy.

The other one is called…
Linkedin thought leader ads: how we generate millions in pipeline.

Ok you’re getting a pattern on my namings!! not very original, I know.

I was speaking to a client about their webinar packaging recently.

Ultimately they just wanted to do a live demo for groups of ppl.

But what we discussed was that very few ppl will want to sign up to a demo.

but if we package it as something educational and actually deliver it as educational, then a lot more ppl will want to turn up (and watch more than 20 seconds)

2. Make sure you have a really good hook / structure.

I keep mine pretty simple:

a) strong one-liner hook
I go straight into the meat, no: “hello my name is xyz” stuff 🥱

More like...
“this is how we helped 5 Linkedin ads accounts scale to millions in pipeline in the past 8 weeks”
...make sure it’s true of course!

b) show social proof

If you’re showing how you did something, show the proof.

I do this by name-dropping clients (the ones who allow me to), and showing real results.

c) go into the educational part

but keep to the point.
no faffing. no talking around a topic too much. be concise.

d) have a good CTA

If you want ppl to book 1:1 demos, then call it out.

I keep my vids mostly under 20 minutes.
The first is 12 minutes long, the second is 17.

I'm currently analysing 10s of thousands of pounds in conversation ads to work out why some do so well and others fall flat. 
Here are some preliminary results...👇

1. The cost per open matters a lot.

Pretty obvious, I guess, but the cost per open varied from as little as 15 cents to as much as £3.50, which will never get the cost per lead low enough.

I imagined the main metric to get the cost per open down would be the open rate.

But the one with 15 cents per open actually had a relatively low open rate (28%), compared with others above 40%.

Still trying to work this out. 

Will release more research around this on my newsletter, will leave a link in the comments.

2. If you’re running lead gen forms inside convo ads, keep a close eye on the form open rate and the form completion rate.

Some campaigns had high completion rates but super low form open rates.

The angle/positioning of the message and specifically the words you use in the convo ad makes a big difference in getting people to open the form. 

Incentives also help a lot (see below).

3. Incentives work really well.

Every time I put an incentive ($100 Amazon gift card) into these, they seem to get a lot more leads.

(And those leads actually convert to pipeline and revenue, for any cynics.)

4. The open rate matters a lot.

On the most successful campaigns (ones with most leads/good cost), the open rate was often above 35%, even 40%+.

AB test your subject line. 

One thing that worked consistently was stating the incentive directly in the subject line.

I’ll bring out a more comprehensive, data-backed report on all of this, plus how to turn these insights into actionable steps.

I've had a lot of success with driving leads with gated assets. 

But most ppl say these leads are...
+ super low value
+ have no intent
+ and waste sales time. 

I think they are just looking at it wrong. 

Here is how i am running it and why it works for me...

1. The asset has to be genuinely valuable

Not a gated PDF pretending to be useful.

I am using an asset that is actually helpful, practical, and worth saving.

Because the asset is strong, the cost per lead stays low.

Pairing this with thought leader ads helps even more, as the social proof around the person delivering the message improves performance across the journey.

2. The landing page conversion rate matters a lot

It needs to be above 40%.

Thought leader ads help here because the likes and comments create credibility.

People see the content, recognise the person behind it, and then even an average landing page converts well because the social proof has already been built.

My cost per lead is currently under $20
...and these are senior marketers in B2B companies.

3. You need a proper outbound and marketing follow up

Most of these people are not asking for a demo. 

Out of one hundred leads, you might only find three or four who are genuinely in market. 
That is exactly what you are mining for.

Anyone downloading a LinkedIn Ads resource probably has LinkedIn Ads on their mind.

They are trying to figure something out. 
Some are ready now, some are not.

Once a lead comes in, I go outbound.

With the Instantly.ai and HeyReach.io integration, I can set up a connection request and, if they do not accept, they receive an email and an InMail.

This can be automated or handled manually, but either way you have to follow up.

My conversion rate from lead to booked call is roughly 3.8%.

 So around four calls for every one hundred leads, which puts the cost per booked call at around £300.

This month it will be lower, because I have made a few improvements that I will share soon (literally, like half).

These calls convert well because people have already consumed my videos and content.

Almost half of all sign-ups read every follow up email, so by the time they book a call they are warm and informed.

I am converting roughly 1/3 calls.

Even if you assume 1/4, the customer acquisition cost sits around a thousand bucks.

For me that is great, because the average lifetime value of a client is in the tens of thousands.

Even in a worst case scenario it sits around at around 6-8k.

Most people dismiss this system because they believe it means sales chasing low intent leads.

There is some truth in that, but the mindset needs adjusting.

You only need three or four in-market people out of one hundred for this to work.

It is about getting the economics right...
+ CPL low (for us under 20 bucks)
+ CVR Lead to demo high (for us 3.8%)
+Demo to revenue at a good rate (for us 1/3)

p.s. if you are running linkedin ads and want a free audit feel free to send me a dm :)

I run different Thought Leader Ads for different parts of my market. It just works better.

I’ve run more general ones too, and they work fine.

But if your audience is as broad as mine, I’d segment the audience slightly.

For example, we’ve had a lot of success with HR tech/SaaS.

So I’ve now pulled together a big(ish) list of HR tech companies and I’m designing a few Thought Leader posts specifically for that market.

Stuff like: “How this HR tech company reached X results with LinkedIn ads” type posts.

That builds the social proof, and the ads actually resonate with that audience.

It helps them believe it might work for them too, because they’re seeing a near-identical example of it already working.

What I’m doing for my clients, when possible, is getting super specific and strategic with the Thought Leader Ads we run.

The organic strategy is often totally different from the posts we should pick to push with ads.

And the advice of the nature of 'run the most engaging posts' is bullsh$t. Honestly it needs to be more strategic. 

The post of you and your cat might get 100 likes but i not sure if you should put money behind that. 

The TL ad ones need to be way more strategic.
