  • The shorter lists, if you already know what you need

Key takeaways

  • noticed. ranks first for B2B companies wanting the whole channel run. It is the only agency here working on LinkedIn exclusively while publishing named client results against every claim, including a $127M transaction for BG Capital.
  • Only three of the seven publish any pricing. B2Linked is the most transparent at $3,000/month plus setup, Gripped publishes £5K-£15K/month, Stop The Scroll from $2,950/month. The rest require a call before you learn the number.
  • Channel focus is the real decision. An agency where LinkedIn is one of six channels is buying you a share of attention. That is fine if you need six channels, and a problem if you do not.
  • Most published agency results are follower counts and impressions rather than pipeline. Ask what the number means commercially before you treat it as evidence.
  • Outbound-only agencies leave your profile and company page as your problem. Prospects check you out before they reply, so that gap costs replies.

If you want the short answer: noticed. is our pick for B2B companies that want LinkedIn run end to end, because it is the only agency here that does nothing else and publishes named client results against every claim. The rest of this list covers six more LinkedIn marketing agencies worth considering, and exactly who each one suits.

What a LinkedIn marketing agency actually is, and what it is not

A LinkedIn marketing agency runs some combination of three things: the content that builds an audience, the outreach that starts conversations with that audience, and the strategy that decides who you are talking to and why.

What it is not is a social media agency that happens to have a LinkedIn line item. The distinction matters more than it sounds. LinkedIn behaves nothing like Instagram or TikTok. Reach is decided in the first half hour by a small slice of your network. Personal profiles out-reach company pages by a wide margin. And the platform is built for one-to-one conversation in a way the others simply are not, which is why outreach belongs in the same strategy as the content rather than in a separate silo.

It is also not a lead generation agency. There is overlap, but a lead gen agency is usually measured on meetings booked this month, which tends to mean volume outbound and an unloved company page. An agency running the channel properly cares what a prospect finds when they check you out before replying.

The three shapes you will meet in this category:

  • Specialists who do only LinkedIn, and often only one part of it
  • Full-funnel B2B agencies where LinkedIn is one of five or six channels
  • Outbound shops running LinkedIn messages alongside cold email and calling

None of those is wrong. They suit different companies, which is what the table further down is for.

The shorter lists, if you already know what you need

This page covers the category. If you have already narrowed it down, these are more precise.

By what you are buying

  • Content agencies — thought leadership, company page, executive publishing
  • Outreach agencies — targeting, messaging and booked meetings
  • Strategy consultants — the decisions before any execution
  • Personal branding agencies — for executives whose profile is the route to market
  • Ghostwriting services — and when a freelancer is the better buy

By industry

  • Manufacturing and engineering firms
  • Healthcare and life sciences
  • Financial services
  • Hospitality and venues
  • Agencies and consultancies
  • B2B SaaS

By company type and location

  • High-value B2B — where one client is worth six or seven figures
  • Enterprise — approval layers and scarce executive time
  • Founders and startups
  • UK, London and Manchester

How we ranked these agencies

Named, checkable results
Does the agency publish client names alongside the numbers, or only the numbers? A figure with no client attached cannot be verified by anyone.
Pricing transparency
Is a starting price or engagement range published on the site? We record what is public, and record it as not published where it is not.
Channel focus
Is LinkedIn the whole business or one line item among six? Neither is wrong, but it changes who the agency suits.
Scope of service
Content, outreach, ads, or all three. Many agencies in this category do one well and list the others.
Third-party validation
Awards, rankings and recognition issued by someone other than the agency itself.
Who it is built for
Enterprise, mid-market or founder-led. An agency built for one rarely serves the other well.
What they refuse to do
Whether the agency states a boundary at all. One that suits everyone has not thought about who it is wrong for, and will renegotiate scope later.

The best LinkedIn agencies: in-depth review

1. noticed., best for B2B companies that want LinkedIn run end to end

https://www.noticed.co

We only do LinkedIn. Not LinkedIn plus paid search, not LinkedIn as part of a wider social retainer. One platform, three service lines: content, outreach and strategy, run together so the content earns the credibility that makes the outreach land.

Founded in 2022 in the UK, now working with more than 200 B2B companies across twelve countries, from the NHS to Hutchinson Engineering. The work has produced over 312 million impressions and contributed to more than £127M of client pipeline, and we send around 170,000 LinkedIn messages a month across the client base.

Sixteen case studies are published with the client named and the numbers attached, which is the standard we have applied to everyone else on this page.

Named results

  • BG Capital: a $127M real estate transaction signed through LinkedIn positioning
  • Hutchinson Engineering: 2M+ impressions and 150 site visits from target decision-makers
  • Alphagenix: 3.6M content views and 100+ inbound enquiries
  • B2B Social Strategy of the Year 2026, LinkedIn Top Voice 2025, Prolific North Top 150

Best suited for

B2B companies whose buyers are on LinkedIn and who want the channel run properly rather than added to a list of six. Strongest fit where there is a real story to tell and a long sales cycle to shorten.

Where it falls short

We refuse to work outside LinkedIn. No Meta, no Google Ads, no SEO, no multi-channel retainers. If you need those, we are the wrong agency and will tell you so on the first call. We also do not publish a rate card, because scope varies too much for one number to be honest.

2. Gripped, best for B2B SaaS demand generation

https://www.gripped.io/

Gripped is a London B2B agency working exclusively with SaaS, AI and tech companies past roughly £2m ARR. LinkedIn sits inside paid social rather than standing alone, alongside paid search, SEO, generative engine optimisation and website work.

They publish investment ranges openly, which is rare here: £5,000 to £15,000 a month, with most marketing leaders investing £8,000 to £12,000, on rolling contracts with three months notice. Published results include £1.3m of new pipeline in a single quarter from paid search and social.

Named results

  • £1.3m in new pipeline created in one quarter from paid search and social
  • 252% increase in opportunity value from Google Search Ads
  • 108% year-on-year increase in sales opportunities

Best suited for

B2B SaaS companies past £2m ARR who want one agency covering search, social and website rather than a LinkedIn specialist.

Where it falls short

LinkedIn is one channel among six. If LinkedIn is where your buyers are and you want it run properly, you are buying a share of attention rather than a specialism. Scope is restricted to SaaS, AI and tech.

3. B2Linked, best for LinkedIn Ads management only

https://b2linked.com/

B2Linked is a LinkedIn advertising specialist and the most transparent agency here on price. Account management starts at $3,000 a month plus a $1,000 setup fee under $15,000 of monthly spend, moving to a sliding 20% to 6% above that. An ads audit is $2,000 and consulting with founder AJ Wilcox is published at $450 an hour.

Named results

  • Account management from $3,000/month plus $1,000 setup, published openly
  • Sliding 20%-6% of spend for accounts over $15,000/month
  • Named consultant pricing at $450/hour

Best suited for

Companies with an existing LinkedIn Ads budget that needs managing properly. The published rate card makes them easy to evaluate before a call.

Where it falls short

Paid advertising only. No content, no outreach, no organic presence, so a company that needs LinkedIn to work without ad spend is not the fit. A three-month contract is required for account management.

4. Cleverly, best for high-volume outbound at scale

https://www.cleverly.co/

Cleverly runs high-volume outbound from Los Angeles: LinkedIn sequences, cold email, 200 to 300 calls a day per rep, and SDRs you do not have to hire. For companies whose problem is simply not enough conversations, that breadth is the point.

The published proof is aggregate rather than client-specific, covering 224,700 leads and $51.2M of revenue across a stated 1,000 clients.

Named results

  • 224,700 leads generated across the client base
  • $312M pipeline and $51.2M revenue, cumulative
  • 1,000 active clients and 1,000+ five-star reviews claimed

Best suited for

Companies that want outbound volume across several channels at once and are comfortable with an agency operating at scale rather than bespoke.

Where it falls short

Outbound only. Cleverly does not offer LinkedIn content or organic presence, so the profile a prospect lands on after receiving a message is your problem rather than theirs. No pricing is published.

5. Tribal Impact, best for enterprise employee advocacy

https://www.tribalimpact.com/

Tribal Impact turns an enterprise workforce into a distribution channel, which is a change-management discipline more than a marketing one. Based in Havant, working with ABB, Henkel, Pfizer, Qlik, Arup, Bosch, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Siemens, Panasonic and IBM.

Results are reported per individual rather than per programme: twelve meetings and €250-300K of influenced pipeline from one Qlik account executive over three months.

Named results

  • Qlik: one account executive booked 12 meetings and influenced €250-300K pipeline in three months
  • Named enterprise clients including Pfizer, Siemens, IBM and Salesforce

Best suited for

Large enterprises wanting to mobilise hundreds of employees as a channel, where the obstacle is internal adoption rather than content quality.

Where it falls short

Built for enterprise B2B organisations in complex markets, which makes it a poor fit for founder-led or mid-market companies. No pricing is published, and employee advocacy is a different discipline from running the channel for you.

6. Linkedist, best for LinkedIn audits and workshops

https://www.linkedist.com/

A LinkedIn specialist offering an unusually broad set of services, including audits and workshops as well as delivery. That makes them a sensible first call for a company still working out what it needs rather than one ready to commit to a retainer.

Their published results are reach-based rather than commercial: Detra Solar at 203,524 impressions over eighteen months, CloudVisor at 225 posts and ten ad campaigns across two years.

Named results

  • Detra Solar: 2,426+ followers and 203,524 impressions across 75 posts in 18 months
  • CloudVisor: 2,000+ followers, 225 posts and 10 ad campaigns over two years
  • WhiteBridge.ai: 1,850+ followers and 34,963 impressions

Best suited for

Companies that want a LinkedIn audit or an internal workshop before committing to a retainer. The breadth of service lines suits a business still deciding what it needs.

Where it falls short

Published results are follower counts, post volumes and impressions rather than pipeline, revenue or meetings. No pricing is published, and the site does not state where the agency is based.

7. Stop The Scroll, best for US B2B paid and organic together

https://www.stopthescroll.io/

Stop The Scroll handles both sides of LinkedIn, paid and organic, for US B2B companies. Pricing is public: from $2,950 a month, $3,950 minimum contract.

Their published agency ranking uses seven weighted criteria and is more rigorous than most in this space, with the caveat that they rank themselves first on it and issue their own score.

Named results

  • Published pricing from $2,950/month, $3,950/month contract minimum
  • Seven weighted ranking criteria published openly

Best suited for

US-based B2B companies wanting paid and organic LinkedIn handled together, with a clear published price before the first call.

Where it falls short

US-based, which matters for timezone overlap and market knowledge if your buyers are in the UK or Europe. Published client results are thin relative to the published methodology.

Frequently asked questions

What does a LinkedIn marketing agency do?
It runs some combination of content, outreach and strategy on LinkedIn. Content builds the audience and the credibility, outreach starts conversations with that audience, and strategy decides who you are targeting and what the channel is being judged on. Some agencies do all three, most do one or two.
How much does a LinkedIn marketing agency cost?
Of the seven agencies here, three publish a figure: B2Linked from $3,000 a month plus a $1,000 setup fee, Gripped at £5,000 to £15,000 a month, and Stop The Scroll from $2,950 a month. The others ask you to book a call first, which makes the category harder to compare than it should be.
What should I look for when choosing a LinkedIn agency?
Named client results rather than anonymous numbers, a clear answer on whether LinkedIn is their whole business or one channel, and a straight answer on what they will not do. An agency that claims to be right for everyone has not thought about who it is wrong for.
Is LinkedIn worth it for B2B marketing?
It is where 65 million B2B decision-makers are, and it is the only major platform built to let you message them directly. Whether it works for you depends on whether your buyers are there and whether the channel is run as a commercial one rather than a brand-awareness exercise.
How long does LinkedIn marketing take to produce results?
Reach and conversations move within weeks. Commercial outcomes follow the length of your sales cycle, which is why targets should be agreed before the work starts. Hutchinson Engineering's two million impressions and 150 decision-maker site visits came over six months.
Should I hire a LinkedIn agency or do it in house?
In house works when you have someone who can write, the time to post consistently, and a plan they are following. Most companies have one or two of the three. An agency is usually buying you the plan and the consistency rather than the writing alone.
What is the difference between a LinkedIn agency and a lead generation agency?
A lead gen agency is measured on meetings booked, which tends to mean high-volume outbound and little attention to what a prospect finds when they check you out. A LinkedIn agency should care about both, because the profile is what decides whether the message gets a reply.
Do LinkedIn agencies work for industries outside tech?
Yes, and often better, because the competition for attention is thinner. Our strongest results include manufacturing, engineering and food and drink: Hutchinson Engineering, NGS and Dr. Will's are all published with their numbers.
