/01
You have a product with a monthly or annual contract value above AUD 5,000 per seat or account. Your buyers are IT managers, operations leaders, or C-suite executives at companies with 20 or more employees. LinkedIn lets you target those decision-makers by title, seniority, and company size, and run them through a nurture sequence from awareness to trial request or demo booking.
/02
You provide accounting, legal, financial advisory, HR consulting, or management consulting to mid-market and enterprise clients in Sydney, Melbourne, or Brisbane. Your sales cycle is long, your deal values are large, and staying visible to senior buyers during that cycle is as important as generating initial inquiries. LinkedIn account-based targeting lets you run campaigns directly against named companies on your prospect list.
/03
You sell infrastructure, security, compliance, or workflow software to Australian enterprises. Procurement involves multiple stakeholders — IT, finance, legal, and operations — and the buying cycle runs six to eighteen months. LinkedIn's targeting lets you reach all of those stakeholders at the same company simultaneously, which is not possible on any other paid platform.
/04
Who it's NOT for: If your average transaction value is below AUD 3,000 or your sales are primarily consumer-facing, LinkedIn Ads will not produce a positive ROI at current Australian CPC rates. Google Search Ads or Meta Ads will generate better returns at that deal size and audience profile.
