LinkedIn ad engagement analytics are just so insufficient if you are stuck with LinkedIn’s native solutions or the ones in your CRM.

So, we built ZenABM.

A sneak peek into why we built ZenABM:

Let me explain more…

LinkedIn Ad Engagement Analytics for Successful ABM: Short Summary

Native LinkedIn tools and CRMs are insufficient for tracking LinkedIn ads at the company level for each campaign. LinkedIn shows company data, but only aggregated at the account level. CRMs like HubSpot, when connected to a LinkedIn ads account, show campaign-level data, but not by company.

ZenABM fixes this:

  • Shows which companies engaged with which ads.
  • Tracks intent, ABM stages, and real-time lead scores.
  • Pushes all metrics + buyer signals into your CRM.
  • Auto-assigns BDRs to hot accounts.

Why the Native Solutions of LinkedIn and Your CRM are Insufficient for LinkedIn Ad Engagement Analytics

The native solutions are still not enough, and here’s why:

LinkedIn Campaign Manager Still Misses the Mark

If you are running ABM on LinkedIn, all you need to ace it is: The ability to see which companies are engaging (not just clicking) with which of your ads.

Before 2024, LinkedIn had no way to show you company-level impressions and engagement, but then they rolled up the ‘Companies Tab’ in LinkedIn campaign manager:

LinkedIn Campaign Manager companies table showing impressions, clicks and engagements per account

You can see quite a lot here: paid clicks, paid impressions, paid engagements, paid leads, organic engagements, organic impressions, and engagement level.

Good? Nope, sorry, it is not

It still misses the mark.

The tab shows company-level impressions and engagements, so you get past the limited click-through approach, yet the data is aggregated to your ad account.

So you can’t see which ads the company interacted with.

Most ABM pros run multiple ABM campaigns at a time. Each of those ABM campaigns has many campaign groups within, and each campaign group further has many ad campaigns.

All these different ad campaigns, campaign groups, and ABM campaigns usually differ from each other on the basis of:

  • Type of ad asset
  • Campaign budget, frequency, time, manager, etc.
  • Buyer’s intent, i.e. what feature/quality of your product/service is being advertised by the ad.

Take this ABM campaign structure for example, which was used by Userpilot:

Within this context, engagement analytics aggregated to the whole ad account hardly help and knowing company-level impressions, clicks, and engagements for each ad campaign, campaign group, and ABM campaign becomes necessary to:

  • Know the intent of the buyer, so your BDRs know what feature/quality to talk about during the outreach, demo, etc.
  • To be able to attribute the impact on the pipeline to the specific ad. Accurate and granular attribution is, in fact, extremely necessary to know which campaigns worked and which didn’t and design future campaigns accordingly. You can’t learn from previous ABM campaigns if you can’t attribute impact to each ad specifically. Neither can you ever do A/B testing if all you get is engagement data aggregated for your whole ad account.

CRMs Don’t Cut It Either

CRMs like HubSpot can be connected to your LinkedIn ads account. For instance, the LinkedIn ads HubSpot integration lets you sync ad engagement data to HubSpot that you can see in the HubSpot ads tool:

Now, here, I’d say, it’s even worse than LinkedIn campaign manager.

Here, you get a campaign-level breakdown, including impressions, clicks, etc., but a company-level breakdown is just absent.

Bottom Line: LinkedIn campaign manager won’t show you company-level metrics for each campaign, but for the whole ad account. CRMs like HubSpot will show campaign-level metrics, but not the companies. A tool that shows company-level LinkedIn engagement analytics per campaign/campaign group/ABM campaign is what you need.

ZenABM’s LinkedIn Ad Engagement Analytics

Here’s how ZenABM helps with LinkedIn ads engagement analytics:

Company-Level Ad Engagement Per Campaign/Campaign Group Pulled Straight from LinkedIn Ads API

ZenABM provides you with a company-level breakdown of ad impressions, engagements, clicks, CTR, and spend for each campaign and campaign group:

From calculating ROI, Total Revenue, Total Pipeline and ROAS to the Number of companies targeted and their ABM stage, ZenABM does the heavy lifting for you!

The tool connects to your CRM (HubSpot and Salesforce are available) to match the companies engaging with your ads to the ones in your CRM deals or opportunities. From there, each company’s deal value is extracted to tie ad impact to the pipeline and revenue.

Also, the tool will calculate these LinkedIn ad engagement and performance metrics for you:

  • Companies Targeted
  • Awareness rate
  • Interest rate
  • Selection rate
  • Customer rate
  • Total pipeline
  • Total revenue
  • Total ad spend
  • Pipeline per unit currency spent
  • ROAS

LinkedIn Ad Engagement Analytics with Buyer Intent

Most businesses design their campaigns and campaign groups based on different features/qualities of their product/service, which is the ‘intent’.

If you do the same, ZenABM will help you tag each campaign/campaign group with an intent, and then it will group your engaged companies based on intent so your BDRs know what to talk about during the outreach:

ABM Stage Tracking with Customizable Thresholds

ZenABM shows you each company’s ABM stage based on its interaction with all your campaigns and CRM data:

And you can set the thresholds for each stage on your own:

Current and Overall Engagement-Based Lead Scoring

ZenABM calculates a real-time ‘Current Engagement Score’ based on impressions, clicks, and recency, and also a ‘total engagement score’ which is a historic aggregate:

Engagement scoring that combines current and all-time signals per campaign
The current engagement score per campaign/campaign group in ZenABM helps you identify if your hottest leads are still engaged, so your BDRs can contact the right leads at the right time.

All These LinkedIn Ad Engagement Metrics are Pushed to Your CRM

We just saw what all LinkedIn ad engagement analytics are tracked by ZenABM.

All these metrics, like clicks, impressions, engagement and even intent, are also pushed to your CRM by ZenABM as company properties:

LinkedIn ad data pushed to company lists in the HubSpot CRM using ZenABM

Plus, ZenABM also assign BDRs to target accounts when they cross an engagement threshold to reach the interested ABM stage and pushes that information to your CRM:

ZenABM assigns accounts in the "interested" stage to BDRs in your CRM
ZenABM assigns accounts in the “interested” stage to BDRs in your CRM

Conclusion

If you’re relying only on LinkedIn Campaign Manager or your CRM for ad engagement analytics, you’re flying blind. The former aggregates the data and doesn’t provide analytics per campaign, while the latter misses company-level insights entirely. But ABM success depends on knowing exactly which companies engaged with which ads, and what that means for outreach, scoring, and pipeline.

ZenABM solves this with campaign-level, company-specific engagement tracking, real-time lead scoring, intent tagging, and CRM sync.
