B2B social media

What does a B2B social media marketing agency do?

A B2B social media marketing agency helps your company and your people build credibility with buyers on LinkedIn, then turns that attention into conversations, leads and pipeline.

ProntX is a B2B social media marketing agency for UK software, professional services, manufacturing and consultancy firms. We run LinkedIn organic content, founder and leadership thought leadership, employee advocacy, LinkedIn ads and lead gen forms connected to your CRM, from £650 a month on a rolling plan.

B2B buying is slow and involves several people. A finance director, an operations lead and a managing director may all need to be comfortable before a contract is signed. Most of them will check you out long before they speak to sales, and LinkedIn is where much of that checking happens.

That changes what good B2B social looks like. It is not about viral posts or follower counts. It is about being known, trusted and remembered by a few thousand of the right people, so when they have a need, you are on the shortlist.

The mistake we see most is a company page posting press releases and stock images to an audience of mostly employees. Company pages have their place, but buyers engage far more with people than with logos. The real reach in B2B sits with your founders, leaders and specialists.

So our B2B social media marketing services focus on people first, the company page second, and paid campaigns to make sure the right accounts actually see the work.

What is included

What is included in our B2B social media marketing services?

Five connected services, scaled to your plan: LinkedIn organic, thought leadership, employee advocacy, LinkedIn ads and lead gen forms.

Organic

LinkedIn company page

A content plan built around your buyers’ problems, with carousels, short videos, customer stories and useful data, plus page optimisation, showcase pages where relevant and LinkedIn newsletters.

Leadership

Thought leadership

Ghostwritten posts and articles for founders and senior leaders, drawn from short monthly interviews so the ideas and opinions are genuinely theirs. We write; they approve and publish.

People

Employee advocacy

A simple programme that helps sales, delivery and technical staff share and create content: profile tidy-ups, ready-to-adapt posts, light training and a monthly roundup of what worked.

Paid

LinkedIn ads

Targeting by job title, function, seniority, company size, industry and named account lists, using thought leader ads, document ads, single image, video and conversation ads.

Leads

Lead gen forms

Pre-filled LinkedIn forms offering something worth swapping details for, synced in real time to HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive or Zoho so sales can follow up the same day.

Measurement

Pipeline reporting

Engagement from target accounts, leads, meetings and pipeline, combined with a “how did you hear about us” question on your forms to capture influence platforms cannot track.

Thought leadership

How do we create thought leadership your buyers actually read?

By starting with real opinions from your experts, not generic industry content. We interview your people, find the points of view buyers care about, and turn them into posts in their own voice.

A monthly 30 minute interview

Each leader gets a short recorded conversation with our writer every month. We ask about recent client problems, mistakes they see in the market, decisions they disagree with and lessons from projects. One conversation usually produces several weeks of posts.

Their voice, not ours

We build a short voice guide for each person: phrases they use, topics they avoid, how formal they are. Drafts arrive in a shared document for approval, and nothing is posted without sign-off. The aim is that a reader who later meets them in person recognises the same person they read online.

Useful over clever

The posts that build trust in B2B tend to be practical: how to evaluate a supplier, what a project really costs, a breakdown of a mistake and what fixed it. We favour that over motivational content, because buyers save and share it.

Repurposed across channels

Strong posts become company page carousels, newsletter sections, sales enablement material and paid thought leader ads. One good idea should work hard across several formats.

LinkedIn ads

How do LinkedIn ads and lead gen forms fit in?

LinkedIn ads make sure your best content reaches the specific roles and companies you sell to, and lead gen forms turn interest into contacts without sending people to a slow landing page.

LinkedIn clicks cost more than most platforms, so we use them carefully. Campaigns usually run in two layers. The first puts useful content in front of a defined audience, often promoting leaders’ posts as thought leader ads, so your brand becomes familiar. The second offers something more substantial, such as a guide, benchmark, calculator or consultation, through lead gen forms aimed at people who have already engaged.

For account-based marketing, we upload target account lists and contact lists as matched audiences, so spend concentrates on the companies your sales team actually wants. For broader prospecting and retargeting across Meta and other platforms, our paid social team works from the same plan.

  • Audiences built from job function, seniority, company size and named accounts
  • Thought leader ads promoting executives’ organic posts
  • Document ads that gate a guide behind a lead gen form
  • Lead forms synced to your CRM with instant alerts to sales
  • LinkedIn Insight Tag and Conversions API for proper tracking
  • Frequency and audience fatigue checked every week

Why ProntX

Why choose ProntX for B2B social media marketing?

Because we connect LinkedIn to the rest of your B2B pipeline, including search, email and your website, and we report on meetings and opportunities rather than likes.

B2B buyers rarely convert from one channel. They see a leader’s post, search your name, read a case study, join your newsletter and then book a call months later. We plan social with that journey in mind. Content ideas are shared with our B2B SEO team, and people who download a guide can enter a nurture sequence run by our email marketing team.

At ProntX, the approach changes by sector. A law firm needs careful, compliant commentary. A software company needs product education and customer proof. A manufacturer needs to show expertise to engineers and procurement teams at the same time.

  • Senior writers who interview your experts directly
  • Approval workflow for every post and ad
  • CRM integration for lead forms included
  • Reporting on target account engagement and pipeline
  • Rolling monthly terms with no lock-in

Who it is for

Which B2B companies is LinkedIn marketing right for?

Companies with a considered sale, a defined buyer and people inside the business who know their subject. If your deal values justify a sales conversation, B2B social is usually worth doing.

  • B2B software and SaaS companies selling to defined teams
  • Law firms, accountants and consultancies building partner profiles
  • Manufacturers and engineering firms reaching specifiers and buyers
  • Recruitment and staffing businesses
  • IT, cyber security and managed service providers
  • Agencies and training providers selling to businesses

Regulated sectors need extra care. For law firms and financial services, we agree review steps up front so posts are checked against professional conduct rules before they go out, and we avoid anything that could read as advice.

B2B social is less suited to businesses that sell low-value products with no sales conversation, where consumer platforms and search tend to work harder. If that is you, our main social media marketing service is likely a better fit.

What happens in the first 90 days

Month one covers profile and page audits, buyer and competitor research, leader interviews and a content plan. Month two puts the posting rhythm in place and launches employee advocacy. Month three adds LinkedIn ads and lead forms, once there is organic content worth promoting, and sets the reporting baseline for target accounts and pipeline.

FAQ

B2B social media questions, answered

Still unsure? Ask us anything. We reply within one working day.

Is LinkedIn the only platform for B2B social media?

It is the main one for most B2B companies, because that is where buyers research suppliers and follow industry experts. YouTube works well for product education and webinars, and some B2B sectors such as hospitality suppliers or design-led manufacturers also do well on Instagram. We recommend a mix based on where your buyers actually spend time.

Should we post from the company page or personal profiles?

Both, but personal profiles usually reach and persuade more people. Buyers engage with founders, leaders and specialists far more than with logos. We use the company page for proof, news and paid campaigns, and personal profiles for opinion and expertise, with content shared between the two.

How does ghostwritten thought leadership work?

Each leader has a short monthly interview with our writer. We turn their stories, opinions and lessons into posts written in their voice, using a voice guide we build together. Drafts are approved in a shared document before anything is published, so nothing goes out that they have not seen and agreed with.

Are LinkedIn ads worth the cost?

For companies selling high-value services or software to defined job roles, often yes. Clicks cost more than on other platforms, but the targeting by job title, seniority and named account is hard to match. We keep campaigns focused, use lead gen forms to lower friction, and judge results on qualified leads and pipeline, not clicks.

How long does B2B social media take to produce leads?

Content can be live within two to three weeks. Organic thought leadership typically takes three to six months to build familiarity with your audience. LinkedIn ads with lead gen forms can produce contacts within weeks, but B2B sales cycles mean pipeline and revenue often follow months later, so we report on leading signals along the way.

What is employee advocacy?

Employee advocacy means helping your staff share and create content about their work and your company on their own profiles. We provide profile improvements, ready-to-adapt posts, light training and a monthly summary of what performed well. It is always voluntary, and it extends your reach to each employee's own network.

Can you connect LinkedIn lead forms to our CRM?

Yes. We sync lead gen forms with HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Zoho and others, either natively or through an integration tool, so new leads appear in your CRM in real time and sales get an alert. This is included on our Pipeline plan and can be added to smaller plans.

How do you measure B2B social media results?

We track engagement from target accounts, follower quality, leads, meetings booked and pipeline created, using CRM data and the LinkedIn Insight Tag. Because much B2B influence is invisible to tracking, we also recommend a "how did you hear about us" field on your forms and include those answers in reporting.
