Timeline view of account engagement What it Shows Visualizes each account’s journey as a timeline, layering Linked In signals (ad views, clicks, impressions) with other signals like website visits, form fills, sales outreach, or meetings. Why it Matters Most reports show data in aggregate, but journeys are not linear. The timeline view helps teams see how LinkedIn ads interact with other touchpoints over time. For example: repeated ad exposures warm up an account → they later come via paid search → and then convert. This shows the sequencing that attribution models usually miss. 2 . Influence of LinkedIn Ads on website sessions and form submissions What it Shows Tracks how many accounts that view Linked In Ads later come to the website and submit a form. Why it Matters Website conversions are often attributed only to direct or last-touch channels, ignoring the awareness Linked In ads create upfront. In reality, ads drive qualified traffic that is more likely to convert once on the site. How to Read It ● Funnel view: Linked In ad exposure → website visit → form fill. ● Compare against accounts that submitted forms without prior ad exposure to measure lift in conversion rates. 3 . Influence of LinkedIn Ads on Deal creation/opportunities and customers What it Shows Tracks accounts that viewed a Linked In ad, then became an opportunity , and ultimately converted into closed-won customers. Why it Matters If marketing teams are using first or last touch models, most deals will never be attributed to Linked In Ads. But, ads often influence deals by creating awareness and driving consideration even without clicks. How to Read It ● Funnel view: Linked In ad view → opportunity creation → closed-won. ● Use this to evaluate not just lead generation, but Linked In’s actual contribution to driving opportunities and customers ● You can also break this down at a campaign level, to see which campaigns drove accounts down the funnel 4 . LinkedIn Ads Impact on Paid Search What it Shows Tracks accounts that viewed Linked In ads, then visited the website via paid search, and finally submitted a form. Why it Matters Paid search performance is often attributed in isolation. In reality, Linked In ads often spark that intent. Cutting Linked In spend eventually reduces leads from search, but most teams don’t see this link. How to Read It This funnel report shows how many accounts did the following events in this sequence: Linked In ad view → paid search visit → form fill. You can also compare with the broader report of all paid search sessions to see how conversion rates differ between exposed vs. non-exposed accounts. Report: 8k accounts viewed Linked In Ads → 874 accounts visited website via paid search → 67 accounts submitted a form. Form submission rate = 7.7% Report: 29k accounts visited website via paid search → 1100 accounts submitted a form. Form submission rate = 3.8% 5 . Influence of LinkedIn Ads on Sales Efficiency What it Shows Tracks accounts that viewed a Linked In ad, then responded to an engagement email, and finally converted into a sales meeting. Why it Matters Linked In ads create awareness and warm
