Pretty soon, everyone can “talk with your data”, but raw data needs to be interpreted with actual frameworks, doctrines, and a real point of view. That’s exactly what the Standard delivers.
Justin RoweImpactable -
The people we work with every day tried AI on their LinkedIn accounts and loved how fast it was. Then they found themselves checking every answer by hand. The Standard is what we wrote down with them: the checks, as one open set of rules, kept up to date.
Iurii ZnakDemandSense -
AI in LinkedIn Ads needs rules because it was trained on recommendations from the platform itself, and advanced practitioners all agree that taking LinkedIn’s recommendations for setting up your ads is a first-class ticket to negative ROI.

From signal to sales Weekly + monthly

From signal to sales On demand
Turn social signals into pipeline
Turns people who engaged with LinkedIn posts (a competitor’s, a topic’s, or your own company page’s) into two company-level lists: companies for sales review and companies for nurture. It sends nothing and looks no one up.
By Alfredo Talib -
Ads and creative Weekly
Weekly check for conversion campaigns
Judges every Lead Gen Form and Message ad against your goal cost per lead: which ads to pause, which winners to copy into new versions, and what to check when every ad in an ad set is expensive. It gives recommendations to approve and changes nothing.
By Moby Hayat -
Building the account Once, days 7 to 14
LinkedIn Campaign Early Read
A first read on one LinkedIn campaign 7 to 14 days after launch, before conversions exist: is it delivering as expected, is it reaching the right companies and people, who is engaging with the ads and on your site, and which accounts are worth acting on now. It only recommends and changes nothing.

Rules15
Set the rules your AI works by. Each one shows what LinkedIn does by default and what to do on top of it
- Rule 01Reach and frequency Read frequency and penetration together One number alone doesn't tell you what to fix. 3 scenarios1 skill
- Rule 02Reach and frequency Set separate frequency targets for cold and warm audiences Cold audiences run low and wide. Warm audiences need repetition. 1 scenario1 skill
- Rule 03Ads and creative Call it fatigue only when frequency is high and CTR keeps falling Either signal on its own isn't fatigue. 2 skills
- Rule 04Reach and frequency Judge Text, Spotlight and Follower ads on reach and CPM, not CTR These formats are there for efficient visibility, so clicks are the wrong measure. 2 skills
- Rule 05Who the budget reaches Split campaigns only when one segment clearly outperforms the rest A segment earns its own campaign by performing two to three times better or worse than the rest.
- Rule 06Who the budget reaches Watch for budget drifting to junior roles Junior roles click more and cost less, so a campaign with mixed seniorities slowly shifts its budget to them.
