The Best LinkedIn Ads Strategy in 2026

· Solo episode

John Stewart from Min Maxed Media breaks down the exact LinkedIn ads playbook he runs for B2B clients in 2026: who it's a bad fit for, why low-fi creative beats polished corporate ads, and the single checkbox that burned through $5,000.

What we cover

  • Why most B2B teams’ LinkedIn ads misconceptions cost them budget before a single conversion, and the minimum viable setup to get started right
  • How to target your exact ICP using LinkedIn’s professional demographics, job title, seniority, and company size filters instead of guessing at audiences
  • Why native-looking, low-fi creative consistently beats polished corporate ads for retargeting, and the format John uses with clients right now
  • The single checkbox inside LinkedIn Campaign Manager that burned through $5,000 in a single campaign and how to catch it before you launch
  • Budget sequencing strategies for brand-new ad accounts with no data history, so LinkedIn’s algorithm has the signal it needs to find buyers
