How we work

Things we're about.

What we actually care about - and what you can hold us to.

Live by week 2. Independent by week 8.We know 8 weeks is a long time. We care about outcomes, and that's how long it takes to get your Campaign Manager properly up and running.

Custom strategy, never cookie-cutter

Your LinkedIn strategy is built around your ICP, your sales cycle and your margins - not copied from the last client. Cookie-cutter is the churn-and-burn approach, and it never holds.

Practical learning, in your Campaign Manager

You learn by doing - building real campaigns in your own Campaign Manager and getting them live. Not watching someone else's demo.

The numbers that matter

Cost per lead. Lead-to-opportunity rate. Deal size by campaign. We teach you the handful of metrics that drive decisions - and give you permission to ignore the rest.

Good creative, good targeting

We show you how to pair creative that stops the scroll with targeting precise enough to justify LinkedIn's premium CPCs - built to earn pipeline, not just impressions.

Around as long as you need us

The goal is your independence. But if you ever want backup - a check-in, a second opinion - we're right here.

What you'll learn

B2B advertising that actually converts.

01

Campaign Manager setup and navigation

Get your LinkedIn Campaign Manager organised with the right account structure, billing, permissions and conversion tracking from the start.

02

B2B objectives and funnel mapping

Map LinkedIn campaign objectives to your sales funnel - awareness, consideration and conversion - so every campaign has a clear purpose and measurable outcome.

03

Audience targeting by company and job title

Build precise audiences using LinkedIn's unique professional data - company name, size, industry, job title, seniority, skills and more.

04

Account-Based Marketing (ABM) targeting

Upload target account lists, build matched audiences, and run campaigns that reach the specific companies and decision-makers on your hit list.

05

Ad formats: Sponsored Content, InMail, Lead Gen Forms

Understand when to use single image, carousel, video, conversation ads, message ads and native lead gen forms for each stage of the funnel.

06

Conversion tracking and LinkedIn Insight Tag

Install the LinkedIn Insight Tag, set up conversion events, and connect the dots between ad clicks and actual pipeline or revenue.

07

Bidding strategies for B2B

Navigate LinkedIn's higher CPCs with the right bid strategy - maximum delivery, cost cap or manual bidding - to control costs without starving campaigns.

08

Lead quality analysis and scoring

Go beyond lead volume and measure what matters - lead-to-opportunity rate, deal size by campaign, and which targeting combinations produce pipeline.

09

Budget allocation across campaign types

Distribute budget across awareness, retargeting and conversion campaigns so your spend builds a full-funnel engine, not just top-of-funnel noise.

10

Reporting and optimisation cycles

Build B2B-specific reporting that connects LinkedIn spend to CRM outcomes, and establish a cadence for testing, learning and scaling what works.

AI, used properly

Human taste, supported by AI tooling.

You'll learn to use AI the way we do - to move faster in your Campaign Manager, not to replace your judgement.

Creative at scale

Mass-produce ad and InMail variations in your brand voice in minutes - then you decide what's actually worth putting spend behind.

Actions, not chat

AI that builds audience lists, flags underperforming segments and drafts A/B tests - inside your account, not in a chatbox.

Data in plain English

Get lead quality and pipeline data translated into what it actually means for your campaigns, on demand.

Taste stays human

Knowing which account list and hook actually fits your buyer is a judgement call - and it's the skill we train hardest.

What's included

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

Who it's for

Who this training is for. And who it isn't.

We'll tell you honestly if we're not the right fit - that's exactly what the fit quiz checks.

This is for you if...

  • B2B is your business - and your buyers are on LinkedIn, not scrolling Instagram.
  • Lead quality matters more than volume - you'd rather have 10 real prospects than 100 tyre-kickers.
  • You've tried LinkedIn and got burned - high CPCs, low quality, and no idea why.
  • You've got sales ready to work leads - so pipeline doesn't sit there going cold.

Probably not, if...

  • You don't want to touch the account - we teach; we don't take over.
  • You want a 2-hour crash course - skills take eight weeks, not a day.
  • You're selling low-value consumer products - LinkedIn's premium CPCs won't pay off.
  • You've already got a specialist - and they're running it well.

Thorne Harbour Health

We trained an entire team across four channels - Facebook Ads, Google Ads, SEO and GA4 - all inside their own accounts, until the team could run everything independently. It's the same 1-1, in-your-own-account training model we bring to LinkedIn Ads.

FAQ

Common questions about LinkedIn Ads training.

How long does LinkedIn Ads training take?

The program runs over about eight weeks across four modules - Audience & Offer Alignment, Creative & Copy, Campaign Manager Build, and Report & Optimise - with six 1-1 sessions. Campaigns go live around week two; then you run on real budget while we optimise together and hand over. We pace it around your availability.

Do you cover ABM (Account-Based Marketing)?

Yes. Matched audiences, target account lists, tiered campaign strategies, and how to coordinate LinkedIn spend with your sales outreach. ABM is where LinkedIn really earns its keep for most B2B businesses.

What's the minimum spend to make LinkedIn Ads work?

You need enough monthly spend to get campaigns out of LinkedIn's learning phase and gather data worth acting on. We'll talk through your numbers honestly in the fit quiz - if LinkedIn isn't the right channel yet, we'll tell you and point you at one that is.

Do I need a sales team to make LinkedIn Ads work?

Not always, but ideally yes for B2B. LinkedIn generates pipeline; someone needs to work it. If you're running self-serve or e-commerce, LinkedIn's usually not the right fit - we'd recommend Meta Ads or Google Ads instead.

Who actually delivers the training?

Josh Berg or Teddi Russell - senior Hedgehog team members with deep B2B advertising expertise. Between them they've worked with hundreds of marketing teams. You'll never be handed off to a junior or an outsourced contractor.

What happens after training ends?

You'll have campaigns configured, tracking in place, and the skills to run LinkedIn independently, plus our LinkedIn Ads cheat sheet for ongoing reference. If you want backup, our Support Program gives you monthly check-ins, performance reviews and direct access to your trainer, plus Hilda AI watching your account. There's no lock-in.

Is this a LinkedIn Ads course, or 1-1 coaching?

Honestly, a bit of both - and not quite either. It's not a pre-recorded course you watch alone, and it's not generic classroom coaching. You get 1-1 video sessions with a real trainer, working inside your actual Campaign Manager on your actual audiences. Think coaching with a curriculum.

Do you run in-person LinkedIn Ads classes in Melbourne?

No - and we'd rather be upfront about that than promise something we don't deliver. Every session is live 1-1 video, delivered Australia-wide and internationally, inside your own Campaign Manager. Most clients find this works better than in-person: you can screen-share your real campaigns and rewatch any session afterwards.

Ready to own your LinkedIn Ads?

Eight weeks, six 1-1 sessions, inside your own Campaign Manager. Take the 30-second quiz to see if it's a fit — we'll send pricing through before any call.

No obligation. If training isn't right for your business, we'll tell you - and point you at what is.
