# Best B2B paid media agencies (2026): LinkedIn, Google, and paid social for B2B SaaS

B2B paid media agencies run LinkedIn ads, Google ads, and paid social for software and services companies, and get judged on pipeline instead of clicks. The good ones set up conversion tracking into your CRM, build the audiences, make the creative, and report on which campaigns produced opportunities.

OneGTM is not a paid media agency. We build outbound and signal-based systems, and we list the agencies below because paid and outbound work best when they hit the same accounts. Several of them publish their fees, which we quote from their own sites. If you want paid, outbound, and content planned together, see our [demand generation agency](https://getaob.com/demand-generation-agency) page.

Key takeaways

- Published management fees start around $3,000 a month for LinkedIn-only work and run past $14,000 a month for full-funnel programs.
- B2Linked and Impactable specialize in LinkedIn ads; Hey Digital, SaaS Hero, and GrowthSpree run multi-channel paid for B2B SaaS.
- Refine Labs, Directive, Kalungi, Powered by Search, and Konstruct sell paid as part of a broader demand gen program.
- Ask how they report pipeline from the CRM, who owns the ad accounts, and what the minimum term is.
- Paid ads and outbound do better aimed at one account list than run as separate programs.

## How to choose a B2B paid media agency

Pick on the channel first. If most of your budget goes to LinkedIn, a LinkedIn specialist will usually beat a generalist. If you need Google, LinkedIn, and Meta run together, pick a multi-channel SaaS shop. If you also need positioning, content, and a marketing leader, a full-funnel agency fits better, at a higher fee.

Then ask how they prove results. Any agency can report clicks and form fills. You want one that reports opportunities and pipeline from your CRM, by campaign.

- Who owns the ad accounts and the creative files if you leave?
- How do they track a click through to an opportunity in your CRM?
- What is the fee model: flat, tiered by spend, or a percentage of spend?
- What is the minimum term, and what happens in the first 90 days?
- Who on their team will actually run your account each week?

## What a B2B paid media agency costs

Fees come in three shapes. Flat retainers, like GrowthSpree's month-to-month fee. Spend-tiered retainers, like SaaS Hero's $4,500 to $15,000 per month by ad budget. And percentage of spend, like B2Linked's 20% down to 6% above $15K a month. Most add a setup fee and a 3 to 6 month minimum.

Budget for media on top. LinkedIn clicks are expensive, so a test usually needs several thousand dollars a month in spend before you can judge it. Full-funnel programs such as Refine Labs start at $14,000 a month in fees alone.

## Paid media and outbound on the same accounts

Paid ads warm up an account. Outbound books the meeting. Running them on one target account list means the buyer has seen your ads before the first email lands, and the ads keep running while the sequence plays out.

OneGTM does the outbound half: building the account and contact list, finding [buying signals](https://getaob.com/buying-signal-tools), and running [email](https://getaob.com/cold-email-software) and LinkedIn sequences. The same enriched list can be uploaded as a matched audience for your paid agency, so both channels target the same buyers. See our [outbound agency](https://getaob.com/outbound-agency) page for how that works.

- Build one account list and share it with the paid agency and the outbound team.
- Upload enriched contacts as LinkedIn and Google matched audiences.
- Retarget website visitors with ads and send the identified ones to outbound.
- Report pipeline by account, so both channels get credit where they touched the deal.

## When to get help alongside your paid agency

A paid agency fills the top of the funnel with ad impressions and clicks. Many accounts that see the ads never fill out a form. Outbound reaches those accounts directly.

OneGTM builds the outbound and signal side: account lists, enrichment, signal-based sequences, and matched audience files your paid agency can use. We do not run ads.

- Your ads get engagement from target accounts but few demo requests.
- Your paid agency and SDR team target different account lists.
- You want website visitors and ad engagers followed up by email and LinkedIn.
- You need cleaner audience lists for LinkedIn and Google matched audiences.

## B2B paid media agencies FAQ

### What are the best B2B paid media agencies?

For LinkedIn ads, B2Linked and Impactable are specialists. For multi-channel paid across Google, LinkedIn, and Meta for SaaS, Hey Digital, SaaS Hero, and GrowthSpree are well known. For full-funnel demand gen that includes paid, Refine Labs, Directive, Kalungi, Powered by Search, and Konstruct Digital.

### How much does a B2B paid media agency cost?

Published fees start around $3,000 a month for LinkedIn ads management at B2Linked and Impactable. SaaS Hero charges $4,500 to $15,000 a month depending on ad spend. Refine Labs starts at $14,000 a month for paid media management. Ad spend is billed separately on top of the fee.

### What is the best LinkedIn ads agency for B2B?

B2Linked runs only LinkedIn ads and publishes its pricing, starting at $3,000 a month plus a $1,000 setup fee. Impactable is LinkedIn-centered and also runs search and retargeting, starting at $3,000 a month. Pick B2Linked if LinkedIn is nearly all your spend.

### Should a B2B SaaS company hire a paid media agency or an in-house marketer?

Hire an agency when you spend enough to need weekly management but not enough to justify a full-time specialist, or when you need creative and tracking help fast. Move in-house when spend is large and stable enough that one person can own it full time.

### Do B2B paid media agencies do outbound?

Most do not. A few, such as Impactable, list outreach, but paid agencies are built around ad platforms. Teams that want outbound alongside ads usually hire an outbound or GTM engineering partner and share one target account list between both.

### What should I ask a B2B paid media agency before signing?

Ask who owns the ad accounts, how they track clicks to opportunities in your CRM, how the fee scales with spend, what the minimum term is, and who will run your account each week. Ask for a client in your price range and stage you can speak with.

### Is OneGTM a paid media agency?

No. OneGTM builds outbound and signal-based systems for B2B companies. We work alongside paid agencies by sharing account lists and building matched audience files, so ads and outbound target the same buyers.
