    Vantage Cyber

    Snapshot

    About this engagement

    Vantage Cyber, a UK IT security vendor, ran a LinkedIn Pay-Per-Click Advertising program with us, and cost per lead on LinkedIn fell 57%. LinkedIn Pay-Per-Click Advertising targets by job title, company size, industry, technology stack, and seniority, with creative written for IT buyers. On a security program the audience is the person who owns security. Leads reach the client's own sales team.

    Challenge

    What we were asked to solve

    A LinkedIn program is judged on the cost of each lead that reaches the sales team and on who that lead is.

    Solution

    How we approached it

    Targeting is set before creative on a LinkedIn program, because the audience decides what each click costs. Creative and copy are then written for that audience.

    Cost per lead on LinkedIn ended 57% lower.
