Text ads are an ad model that is placed on the top of the feed and used as only text. You can add your logo but no other image.

  • Sponsored InMail

This ad model, which offers the perfect targeting, can be quite practical depending on the nature of your campaign. This is a sponsored mailing feature, in which you can directly send messages to the inbox of the employees of a predetermined company or department.

You can call the viewers directly with their names in this model and promote your product directly to your target audience.

  • Display Ads

These are the ads located on the right sidebar of LinkedIn’s desktop version. You can enjoy effective conversions with these ads, according to your target audience.

Formats and Scope

Just like on other social media platforms, you can create different types of ads on LinkedIn such as carousel, video, or a single image. Besides the choice of your ad model, your choice of ad format matters a lot.

Minimum Budget for LinkedIn Ads

The minimum daily budget is set as $10 on the “Campaign Management” page on the platform and of course, this is an optional feature for sponsored updates. Besides, CPC for text ads is $2. Your budget may vary depending on your target audience.

LinkedIn Is the Most Effective Platform for B2B

As we mentioned at the beginning of the guide, you can promote your brand to many brand managers and employers on LinkedIn. For example, as MODD/Group Ads Agency, we promote some of our blog posts at certain times to the executives of the sectors we target.

In this way, we educate our target audience and if they want to get more information, they can contact us. You can promote your ads to the people you want with features such as choosing a certain company or a certain position at a company.

Attract New Followers with “Follower” Ads

If you are new on LinkedIn with your brand, attracting new followers can be a problem. While “follower” ads, visible on the member pages can increase your followers, they also increase your brand awareness.
