You can sync your Leadfeeder Lists with LinkedIn to create audiences based on your target companies.
When a List is connected to LinkedIn, companies in that List are sent to LinkedIn and matched against LinkedIn company data to build a Matched Audience.
Before you start
Make sure:
Your LinkedIn account is connected to Leadfeeder
You have access to a LinkedIn Ad Account
You have a List with companies you want to target
Sync a List with a LinkedIn audience
You can sync a Leadfeeder List with LinkedIn to create a new audience based on the companies in that List.
This creates a connection between your List and a LinkedIn audience, allowing companies in the List to be sent to LinkedIn and kept up to date.
You can set up this sync from either the List settings or the Integrations settings.
Note: LinkedIn requires a minimum audience size (typically at least 300 matched companies) before the audience can be used in campaigns. If your List is too small, the audience may not be usable until more companies are added.
From List settings
Go to Lists
Open the List you want to use
Go to List settings
Navigate to LinkedIn
Choose a LinkedIn Ad Account
Enter a name for the LinkedIn audience. A new LinkedIn audience will be created and linked to your List.
Confirm the setup
From Integrations settings
Go to Settings → Integrations
Open the LinkedIn integration
Click on New Audience
Choose a LinkedIn Ad Account
Enter a name for the LinkedIn audience
Select a List. The selected List will be connected to a newly created LinkedIn audience.
Confirm the setup
How syncing works
This is a one-way synchronization from Leadfeeder to LinkedIn.
When companies are added to or removed from a List, Leadfeeder pushes those changes to LinkedIn. LinkedIn matches the provided company data against its own database and updates the Matched Audience accordingly.
Updates are not applied instantly. It may take up to 48 hours for updates to be fully processed. That depends on processing and matching on LinkedIn’s side.
Sync status
Each List connected to LinkedIn has its own sync status.
The status shows:
Whether the audience is being built or updated
Whether syncing is successful or has failed
If the audience is too small to be used in campaigns
If there is a temporary issue, Leadfeeder will retry syncing automatically.
Manage your sync
You can manage an existing sync between a List and a LinkedIn audience from either the List settings or the Integrations settings. This will stop sending updates to LinkedIn.
The LinkedIn audience will remain in its current state but will no longer be updated.
From List settings
Go to Lists
Open the synced List
Go to List settings
Navigate to LinkedIn
View or remove the LinkedIn sync
From Integrations settings
Go to Settings → Integrations
Open the LinkedIn integration
View all active syncs
Select a sync to remove or manage
