This also applies if you already have a content plan and post daily or are willing to start right away, as sales don't happen on their own.
Lastly, you expected to know your customer - formally putting down an ideal customer profile document is great.
Whether you're a CEO, entrepreneur, or sales executive, you constantly reach out, connect, post, and track the impact of your activities.
With a lot of marketing efforts going on, it is hard to figure out activities responsible for proportionally more significant impact.
A/B testing allows you to figure out the most impactful of your ads by testing elements of your content.
This is a proven concept to increase conversion rates for marketing campaigns.
By adjusting messaging, imagery you can identify the combinations that captivate your target audience.
For A/B testing to really work (give you an answer you could rely on as on science) only one condition must be met - statistically significant results.
Which in simple words means some traffic/views per each option tested.
Even more practically, that may mean ~3000 views per option or min $700 for the A/B test answer. That price is justified in case your improvement brings in way over $700 spent on the testing.
So +3% will make $700 even for $23.000 PPC budget and for real breakthrough, it should be either +30% or $230.000 PPC budget.
LinkedIn requires A/B tests to have at least a $10 daily or $700 lifetime budget, which are minimum requirements.
LinkedIn’s A/B testing budget recommendations are much higher. The platform recommends using a lifetime budget of $2,000 for an audience of 2 million or more.
For smaller audiences of up to 1 million, LinkedIn recommends a lifetime budget of $10,000.
That’s rather a rare spend on personal brand development.
And actually means LinkedIn A/B testing tool won’t help you to understand what kind of posts your followers like most.
Time is another dimension and minimum for A/B test on LinkedIn is 2 weeks.
