In fact, the very simple way to think about Lead Accelerator is that it is a marketing automation for digital media.
It all starts with identifying the right audiences. We offer powerful targeting capabilities that allow you to target just the right people among that audience of professionals.
[CUSTOMIZE TARGETING FILTERS TO MATCH YOUR CLIENT’S TARGET AUDIENCE] Here are a few examples of filters you can use.
After you find your target audience, the next step is to start influencing those people towards a purchase. To understand how that works on LinkedIn, let’s pick one individual from your target audience as an example.
In the beginning of that process, all you know is that he’s part of your target audience. So the first message you send him might be a display ad or Sponsored InMail focused on getting his attention and generating awareness towards your brand or product / service. He’ll click the ad and go to your site to learn more.

So the first message you send him might be a display ad or Sponsored InMail focused on getting his attention and generating awareness towards your brand or product / service. He’ll click the ad and go to your site to learn more.
Let’s walk through an example to bring it home:
Suppose you have two different audiences visiting your site:
One audience visits your home page, and bounces
The other audience dives deeper into the product section of your site
BOTH of those audiences are valuable – they have both raised their hand and indicated that they’re interested in what you have to say
SO, you want to nurture both of those audiences
BUT, you want to nurture them differently
For the Home Page Bouncers:
You probably want a relatively short nurture stream that focuses on higher level messaging and overall brand positioning.
For the Product Page Visitors:
You want to nurture them more aggressively with a longer nurture stream that tells your story the way you want to tell it.
You wan to leas the prospect through a series of messaging and content that ultimately drives directly to a conversion event
Through Lead Accelerator you’re not only nurturing your prospects differently, but you’re reaching them wherever they travel online.
Whether a prospect is on LinkedIn, Facebook, or browsing across the Web, you can deliver your sequenced messages, which are also synchronized across each channel – delivering a consistent experience for your prospect as they progress through the buyers journey.
In the beginning of that process, all you know is that he’s part of your target audience. So the first message you send him might be a display ad or Sponsored InMail focused on getting his attention and generating awareness towards your brand or product / service.

Why is it unique? Because:
You make sure you’re focusing all your efforts to reach only the right audience. LinkedIn targeting is extremely powerful because it’s based on rich 1st party profile data, which can be segmented in many different ways. Once you find that audience, you can reach them wherever they are online, across al devices.
You are able to maintain an ongoing connection with those people, delivering relevant content based on where they are in their decision process. We know that consumers expect brands to do just that – be always helping instead of always selling. With LinkedIn, you can sequence your messages to be delivered at the exact right time to your audience.
You can easily and effectively track the impact of your campaigns, be they branding or lead gen oriented, and optimize accordingly to make sure you’re always getting the desired results.
