The LinkedIn Ads Agency

Spending on LinkedIn ads, but not seeing pipeline?

Most campaigns die from weak targeting, bland creative, and no funnel. We run LinkedIn ads that buy SQLs, not impressions: strategy, creative, and optimization, reported against CPL and CAC.

Why your ads underperform

Wasting ad spend? We've heard it before.

LinkedIn is the most expensive B2B ad platform, and the least forgiving. Here's where budgets usually leak.

1

High spend, low results.

LinkedIn punishes wrong targeting and wrong messaging with brutal CPMs. We dial in both so your budget buys qualified leads, not reach.

2

Creative that blends in.

Most LinkedIn ads look built by committee. We make thumb-stopping creative that feels native to the feed, earns the click, and drives intent.

3

Leads that never become revenue.

Plenty of agencies optimize for leads. We optimize for pipeline: the metrics that matter are SQLs, CPL, and CAC, not clicks.

The LinkedIn ads service

How we run your account. Five steps, on repeat.

From discovery to weekly optimization. Each step leaves an artifact you can inspect, and your part is approvals and one monthly call.

01

Deep discovery

Week 1 · 1 kickoff call, you

We dive into your business model, target audience, sales cycle, and existing funnel. Ads that align with how your buyers actually buy, not just how they look. Outcome: messaging and offer clarity, plus the ad strategy blueprint.

Who this is wrong for

We'd rather tell you now.

Three situations where we'll say no on the intro call. If none of them is you, keep reading.

✕

Media spend under $3K/mo

LinkedIn's auction eats small budgets before they can learn. Under that, start with organic content and come back.

01
✕

No proof to advertise

Ads amplify an offer, they can't invent one. No case studies, no landing page, no clear promise: nothing to scale.

02
✕

You need ROI in week one

The learning phase is real: 2 to 4 weeks of testing before winners emerge. Anyone promising day-one ROI is selling you something.

03

Pricing

Every price is public. Check the fit before we talk.

Strategy, creative, campaign management, and pipeline reporting are in every plan. Management fee plus your media spend, real numbers on the pricing page, no discovery-call toll.

FAQs

LinkedIn ads with Stop The Scroll.

Coming from another agency, a generalist shop, or running it yourself? Here's what you need to know.

Book intro call
01How is Stop The Scroll different from other LinkedIn ads agencies?+

Three checkable claims: pricing is public, the founders who sell you run the account, and we report on SQLs, CPL, and CAC instead of clicks. Most agencies fail at least two of those.

02What's the minimum budget?+

Management from $2,950/mo plus your media spend, and we recommend at least $3K/mo in spend. Below that, LinkedIn's auction eats the budget before campaigns can learn. If that's out of range today, start with organic content and come back.

03Do you make the creative too?+

Yes, all in-house: copy, design, and video cutdowns for every funnel stage. Native to the feed, tested in rounds, refreshed before fatigue. No committee, no stock-photo templates.

04How fast will we see results?+

The learning phase is 2 to 4 weeks: testing segments and creative until winners emerge. Scaling starts by month 2 or 3. We set that expectation up front because anyone promising ROI in week one is selling you something.

05Do you require a long-term contract?+

No. Month-to-month with a 30-day notice, and your ad account stays yours: we work in it, we don't hold it hostage. We earn the renewal every month or we don't deserve it.
