Editor's Notes
- I’m Keith Nice to be with you today, thanks for joining I’m going to share what’s new with LinkedIn that’s going to help you succeed with marketing I’ll take questions at the end Let’s get started
- A little about us… a lot about you We’ll use examples from customers as well as our own campaigns
- As a marketer, you know it’s becoming increasingly difficult to influence purchase decisions. The buyers journey is non-linear and people are making it through 90% of it before they reach out directly. Today’s empowered consumers have multiple tools in hand to find information about products, compare prices, get social recommendations and so on. And content is playing a huge role in the decision journey, making it easier for people to go through 90% of the journey. --------------- But brands do have an ‘in’ here. On average, people are consuming 10 of those pieces of content before making a purchase. So once you view the journey from the perspective of sharing content, it actually simplifies: you’re trying to reach the right people, and then nurture them, largely with content, until you acquire them
- Our blog is the centerpiece Blog gets leveraged in these channels, and we use it to feed a lot of the content in our sponsored updates
- Our Average Attention Span Is Now 8 Seconds – 1 Second Less Than A Goldfish According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information, at the U.S. National Library of Medicine, the average attention span of a human being has dropped from 12 seconds in 2000 to 8 seconds in 2013. This is one second less than the attention span of a goldfish. That’s right, goldfish have an attention span of 9 seconds – 1 second more than you and I.
- We aim to develop on ‘big rock’ per quarter, that will drive a lot of lead gen and can be carved up into smaller, snackable pieces to extend the shelf life. This was the dream of Jason Miller our content marketer who we hired last year, and it drove 40% of all leads in Q1, Q2 and Q3.

- There are 3 keys to success with content marketing on LinkedIn: have an effective messaging strategy, get it in front of the right people, and understand the business problem you are trying to solve so you can put the right metrics into place. We’ve talked about effective messaging. Let’s talk targeting because that has been LinkedIn’s sweet spot since day one. Whether choosing to distribute content through sponsored updates, sponsored InMail, or good old banner campaigns, here’s a great place to start to understand LinkedIn’s targeting. It’s the self-serve ads platform available at LinkedIn.com/ads and you don’t have to put down a credit card to explore the targeting tool.
