With over 130 Million Daily Active Users (DAU) , Linkedin is a goldmine for B2B Leads.
But targeting the right person at the right time remains a challenge for Lead Generation on the social network.
Social listening and buska can help you target prospects that mention specific topics or brands (yours or your competitors’) to engage with qualified leads showing “ready to buy” signals.
There are various ways to interact with potential leads from these mentions to convert them into customers.
Below, we present a range of scenarios on how to turn mentions to leads on Linkedin.

Scenario 1: Targeted Content Creation

Challenge: You’ve noticed an increase in mentions found by buska, around a specific problem your product solves, but the engagement TOFU (Top of the Funnel) with your brand content remains low.

Solution: Create and share a detailed guide or case study directly addressing this particular problem. Tag individuals and companies who’ve mentioned the relevant keywords or questions in a post, inviting them to discuss the solutions your guide provides. This will position your brand as a thought leader and opens dialogue with prospects in a value-first approach.

Actionable Tip: Use LinkedIn’s publishing platform to share your content and incorporate keywords that your “ready to buy” prospects use. This increases visibility and engagement from your target audience.
