LinkedIn Video Ads
By the AdFlint research team · Last reviewed July 2026
Sponsored video in the LinkedIn feed, auto-playing muted, used for demos, customer stories, and explanations too long for a static post.
You upload the video as a company page post and pay by impression or view, and you can retarget people who watched a chosen percentage. It fits mid-funnel education where a screenshot cannot carry the argument. The common mistake is repurposing a broadcast-style brand film, because LinkedIn viewers scroll fast and watch without sound, so lead with the specific claim and caption everything.
