But LinkedIn results don’t come easy—they take consistency, hard work, and a deep knowledge of what works for specific industries. That’s why our clients come to us.

All-in-all, we love every aspect of content management and generation as we help our clients to achieve their goals.
We’d like to share a few results that we’ve generated for one of our clients in the past few months.
The Company
- Industry: Utilities
- Product: SaaS platform start-up
- Location: Germany
The Goals
- Increase brand exposure across marketing channels. The main channel is LinkedIn.
- Position both the overall brand and individual team members as knowledge experts on LinkedIn.
- Introduce new solutions, updates, and announcements through the LinkedIn channel, email newsletters, and the News Section of the brand website.
- Increase inbound website traffic from the LinkedIn channel.
Why LinkedIn?
Social media channels are a vital tool for companies to build their brand by growing an audience and generating leads. While there are many different options to choose from, LinkedIn has consistently proved to be the platform of choice for B2B brands.
That’s because it’s the channel where B2B professionals spend most of their time. Knowing where your target audience is—and meeting them there—helps you to yield the best results and return on investment (ROI).
Creating and sharing your content not only adds value to your followers but helps position you as a thought leader within your industry.
And with 96% of content marketers using LinkedIn for organic marketing, if you don’t show up here, you’re missing out.
The result of this organic marketing is that traffic to your website and business increases. B2B companies with a complete LinkedIn profile who regularly post on their page can see a 5x increase in their website views.
Because LinkedIn is specifically geared towards businesses, you can take advantage of built-in tools like Sales Navigator to gain insights and create targeted contact lists for your specific industry.
In addition to the clear results you can gain from posting on a company profile, LinkedIn is also the perfect platform for individuals to grow their personal brand as an extension of their business.
Sharing your story is a powerful way to create a value network that’s built upon your expertise and insightful content.
