LinkedIn Ads Audiences & Targeting

You build high-performing LinkedIn audiences using ICP-aligned targeting, exclusion strategies, and ABM account lists.

Instructions

Define ICP from sales calls, closed-won analysis, and stakeholder input
Choose targeting approach (Job Title vs Job Function + Seniority)
Build exclusion lists (competitors, customers, wrong seniority)
Set up remarketing audiences with proper windows
For ABM: use company lists (95-100% match) over contact lists (30-70%)

Reference

For ICP definition, targeting approaches, ABM setup, and exclusion strategy → Read {SKILL_BASE}/resources/references/targeting-audiences.md For audience size benchmarks and match rates → Read {SKILL_BASE}/resources/references/benchmarks.md For Predictive Audiences, the lookalike sunset, and career-signal targeting → Read {SKILL_BASE}/resources/references/predictive-audiences.md

Three High-Performing Audience Types

Type	Setup	Best For
Remarketing	Website + video + ad interactions (90-180 day windows)	Bottom-funnel conversion
Tier 1 & 2 Accounts	Company list upload + job titles + locations	ABM campaigns
Open Opportunities	Active buying-phase companies + relevant titles	Pipeline acceleration

Key Principles

Company lists > contact lists — 95-100% match vs 30-70%
Always set exclusions — competitors, customers, wrong seniority, login page visitors
Separate personas into campaigns — for tailored messaging
500+ employees: exclude managers — too many layers; <500: include managers
Audience Expansion OFF by default — turn on only when intentionally broadening
Impression cap at 500/company/7 days — prevents large companies from eating budget

Examples

Example 1: "How do I target my ICP on LinkedIn?" → Ask about ICP definition (industry, company size, titles). Set up Job Title + Company Size + Industry targeting, build exclusion list, recommend 10K-100K audience size.

Example 2: "Set up ABM targeting for 200 accounts" → Upload company list, layer job titles + locations, split 500+/<500 employees, set impression capping, coordinate with sales on outreach triggers.
