Let’s face it…
There are thousands of Linkedin marketing agencies out there.
According to Clutch, there are 10,555 Linkedin marketing services listed just on that platform alone.
Some of these companies are excellent, depending on your needs, and others are not so great.
Because there are so many choices out there, it can make it hard for founders and businesses to choose the right agency.
In this article, we will compare some of the best Linkedin marketing agencies, their pricing, reviews, and which services they specialize in.
Hopefully, this resource guide can help you cut through the noise and find the best agency for your business.
After all, b2b lead gen has to be done the right way, otherwise, you’re going to miss out on qualified sales leads, which is equivalent to flushing money down the drain.
(But if 20+ qualified sales leads per month sounds like a no-brainer – get in touch with us. We bring you 1 qualified lead per day using ultra-personalized LinkedIn + email outreach, or your money back.)
First… Think about which form of Linkedin marketing you would like to use.
From social media marketing to content, Linkedin ads, and even outreach, there are various forms of advertising that you could use to generate leads.
Of course, not all agencies charge the same, and some services might be more affordable than others.
But you need to decide which marketing strategy will be the best for your business.
I suppose it also depends on the type of business you have.
For example, if you’re selling saas services, outreach might be the better option.
Or if you’re selling something “fun” and whimsical like personalized stethoscopes to medical students, social media marketing might be a good fit.
It really depends on who your ideal target audience is and what would appeal to them.
Note: This article will be divided into sections of various agencies that specialize in specific forms of Linkedin marketing. This will help you scan the article quickly for reference.
Once you’ve asked yourself these questions, and you know the answers, read on for the 10 questions that you should ask before choosing the right growth partner for your business.
1. Linkedin outreach agency
Salesbread
Salesbread is a boutique Linkedin lead generation agency that specializes in sending high-quality, low-quantity outreach messages (via cold email and Linkedin.)
We guarantee 1 qualified lead per day and generated close to 5000 sales-qualified leads for our clients in 2021.
Salesbread offers two lead generation services:
1. Done-for-you-lead generation
Or done-for-you lead generation service focuses on generating qualified B2B leads and appointments so that you can focus on spending time doing what matters for your business, such as closing deals.
How do we do this?
First off, we will build an ultra-defined prospect list.
We would rather have a list of 100 prospects who will say yes to a booked meeting, than 1000s of prospects who might be the wrong fit for your product or service.
Once we have perfected this list (which usually takes 1 week) we will then reach out to them by writing personalized cold emails and LinkedIn messages that will capture their attention.

2. 1-on-1 Sales Consulting
With our sales consulting service, you can hop on a consultation call with the founder of Salesbread, Jack Reamer. In this call, we will share with you all our hacks for generating 1 lead per day and help you with your lead generation strategy.
You will be able to fix your outbound strategy, and copywriting in your sales messages and low open rates.
Simply fill out a detailed marketing survey before the call, and we’ll show up with detailed notes and leave you with a more profitable lead-generation process.
And if you aren’t ready yet to hire an outbound lead generation agency, no worries, we also offer a cold email masterclass that will show you how to book more sales and meetings.
(We aren’t an appointment-setting agency, but we can book sales meetings for you if you like. Just chat with us beforehand about your needs.)
Both of these services will cost you less than hiring a full-time sales rep.
What can you expect from SalesBread?
- No locked-in contracts. (Feel free to halt services at any time.)
- Qualified leads within the first week
- Full transparency
- Expert advice from the founder of SalesBread, Jack Reamer.
- 1 qualified sales LEAD PER DAY or your money back
- No spam email marketing strategies
- Ultra-personalized messaging which is made possible through prospect research
- Expert list building
- A free consultation (15min)
At the end of a partnership, SalesBread will have a “graduation” call with their clients. In this call, we will hand over everything that we have found to work for our client’s specific campaigns, all leads, and share advice.
The reason?
So that YOU can start your own in-house lead generation team in time, it doesn’t make sense to outsource marketing services forever.
PRO TIP:
If you have a strong inbound marketing setup, then your business will do really well.
This is especially true for startups who might not have the funds just yet to outsource B2B appointment-setting services.
If your inbound marketing isn’t strong yet, start building it up.
How can you do this?
With excellent website landing pages, search engine optimization, and PPC. You could also make use of social media marketing, which is quite affordable.
But if you can, grow your content marketing, social media, and digital marketing platforms, along with outsourcing top lead generation companies.
Why?
Because you will end up with a killer mix of inbound and outbound sales leads.
As you can see, Salesbread is quite different from most lead generation agencies out there.
For us, it’s not just about making money, but being truly helpful to our clients and readers.
The proof is in the in-depth articles that we post weekly, helping marketing managers, saas founders, small business owners, and even corporations up their lead-gen game.
There is no secret, just a lot of hard work.
If you are interested in learning more about pricing, which CRM tools we use, and how our sales team works precisely, please schedule a free 15 min consultation, and let’s find you those high-quality leads. (Also feel free to read our case studies too)
Salesbread Pricing
Our service essentially replaces the need for a trained Outbound Sales Rep at your company — for less than half the cost of a full-time salary.
You can expect to pay between $2-3k/mo.
With the consultation service being a fraction of the price of the done-for-you service.
