Technical considerations & specs

Within the LinkedIn integration, customers should note: 

  • Bombora creates a new LinkedIn ‘Matched Audience’ automatically using Company Surge reports within the Bombora UI.

  • There is not a Bombora Company Surge integration to LinkedIn Sales Navigator at this time.

  • In order for Bombora UI users to build reports that send accounts to LinkedIn, they must have a LinkedIn Marketing Solutions license. 

Sending Net New Accounts to LinkedIn

Surface new in-market accounts in Bombora Company Surge and send them to LinkedIn

Company Surge® reports in the Bombora UI can provide you with a list of previously unknown businesses that are actively researching your products or services.

Users can then segment these new accounts and send them to LinkedIn to target with top-of-the-funnel content and ads.

Data is only as good as its activation.
