The SaaS Marketing Weekly Podcast

In the first part of a three-part mini-series, Ryan is joined by Jamie Skeels, Head of Strategy at RocketSaaS, to break down the fundamentals of running successful LinkedIn ad campaigns for B2B SaaS. They cover why most companies fail with LinkedIn ads, how to approach top, middle, and bottom-of-funnel campaigns, and which ad formats deliver the best results. If you’ve ever struggled to get ROI from LinkedIn, this episode gives you a clear framework to start building campaigns that convert.

Takeaways:

  • Most SaaS brands go straight for bottom-of-funnel demo ads — and it rarely works
  • Top of funnel: focus on educational content that addresses customer problems
  • The best content formats
  • Best ad type at TOFU: single image ads (fast, low-friction, most consumed)
  • Middle of funnel winning ads
  • Effective MOFU ad formats
  • Bottom of funnel to drive conversions
