LinkedIn Account Matched Audiences

Last update: Wed Aug 28 2024 00:00:00 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time)

Journey Optimizer B2B Edition offers the ability to generate LinkedIn Ad audiences through Account Matched Audiences, and is designed to help you fill empty roles in your buying groups. By defining a set of buying group filters, you can maintain a LinkedIn Matched Audience to target prospects who match your buying group parameters.

Before you initiate a dataflow from Journey Optimizer B2B Edition, you must have at least one instance of the (Companies) LinkedIn Matched Audience destination connector with a LinkedIn Campaign Manager account configured in your Experience Platform application.
