The Challenge
World-renowned for its Unified Security and Observability Platform Platform, Splunk approached Overdrive Digital for help in developing paid social efforts for lead generation and pipeline growth in France and Germany.
The brief was to test and establish LinkedIn ads as a profitable and scalable channel for the business, alongside paid search.
What we did
Step 1
We completed an audit of past LinkedIn Campaigns to understand audience behaviour, the best results and the best performing industries and targeting strategies.
Step 2
Once our team had an in-depth understanding of the previous campaigns, we renewed the audience testing strategy, utilising new targeting features in LinkedIn.
Step 3
We tested a variety of asset topics across Splunk's target industries—Cyber Security, DevOps, and IT—to determine which content was most effective at generating MQLs.
Step 4
We utilised LinkedIn Lead Gen forms integrated with Splunk's CRM, enabling us to analyse campaigns and assets that directly contributed to MQLs and pipeline. This helped us identify which assets generated the highest-value leads.
The results
Overdrive Digital successfully transformed LinkedIn into a scalable and profitable channel for Splunk, driving significant growth in key metrics.
By implementing strategic audience testing, leveraging LinkedIn’s advanced targeting features, and optimising lead generation forms integrated with Splunk’s CRM, we achieved a 245% increase in MQLs, a 90% boost in pipeline value, and a 52% reduction in cost per lead.
This comprehensive approach not only delivered measurable results but also established a strong foundation for continued success in France and Germany.
