Strategy & Foundation Setting
Build the strategic foundation that determines campaign success before you even open Campaign Manager.
Your LinkedIn ad strategy begins long before you create your first campaign. This foundation phase is where most marketers either set themselves up for success or costly failure.
- •Define Your Ideal Customer Profile (ICP): Target companies, not just individuals
- •Map Your Buyer's Journey: Understand where prospects are in the decision process
- •Set Clear Success Metrics: Beyond vanity metrics to business impact
- •Competitive Intelligence: Research what messaging resonates in your space
💡 Pro Tip
Spend 80% of your time on strategy and 20% on execution. Most failed campaigns stem from poor strategy, not poor tactics.
⚠️ Warning
Avoid targeting individual job titles exclusively. LinkedIn's algorithm works better with broader, layered targeting approaches.
