Mathematical Audit

LinkedIn Paid Ads B2B Funnel Model

The estimator converts your monthly ad budget into clicks, leads, sales opportunities (SQLs), and closed-won deals based on standard conversion averages.

Clicks = Monthly Ad Spend / Average CPC
Leads = Clicks × Click-to-Lead Conversion Rate
SQLs = Leads × Lead-to-SQL Conversion Rate
Closed Deals = SQLs × SQL-to-Deal Conversion Rate
Pipeline Value = Closed Deals × Average Deal Value
Return on Investment (ROI) = ((Pipeline Value - Ad Spend) / Ad Spend) × 100

Cost Per Click (CPC) averages $6–$9+ on LinkedIn due to accurate professional targeting. Cost Per Lead (CPL) is typically lower when using native Lead Gen Forms (6–13% conversion) compared to external landing pages (3–5% conversion).
