Creating a Match Audience
LinkedIn has a company list template for uploading your company list. There are a few identifiers on that list such as companyname, companywebsite, companyemaildomain, linkedincompanypageurl, stocksymbol, industry, city, state, companycountry, and zipcode.
The data you get from Outscraper meets most of these identifiers. However, it will be sufficient to use the linkedincompanypageurl or companywebsite identifier.
Let’s say you want to create a LinkedIn ad to show to digital marketing agencies.
First, you create a B2B Lead List with Outscraper. You can read how we did here.

(Scraped with Google Maps Scraper and enriched with Emails & Contact Scraper)
The result file contains all the websites of digital marketing agencies registered on Google Maps. The data in this column can be used for the companywebsite identifier.
In addition, the result file contains the LinkedIn company page URLs. This data can also be used for the linkedincompanypageurl identifier.
Let’s continue with the linkedincompanypageurl identifier in this example. Copy all the data in the linkedin column from the Outscraper result file and paste it into a new excel file. Write linkedincompanypageurl on the first line of the data.
Save the new file as a CSV file. It has to be like this: Digital-Marketing-Agency-LinkedIn-URL.csv
After preparing this file, open the campaign manager on LinkedIn.
And choose the “Upload a List (company/contact)” option in the “Create audience” dropdown menu. The “Upload a list” menu will appear.
The list has been uploaded and is currently being processed by LinkedIn. It takes approximately 48 hours.
LinkedIn Notification: Your audience is currently building, and it may take up to 48 hours (on a rare occasion, longer) to start delivery. Include this audience in a campaign at any time and it will automatically start serving when ready.
Tip: If excluding an audience, the audience must be fully processed for the exclusion to apply.
You can either create a lookalike audience with the matched audience created after the list building is finished, or you can create ads directly for this matched audience.
