5 Successful LinkedIn Influencer Marketing Campaigns

Not every LinkedIn campaign gets it right—but these five did.

Here’s how they made an impact and what you can learn from them.

1. Notion Faces by Notion

Notion is an all-in-one workspace designed to streamline collaboration and organization for individuals and teams. The tool combines note-taking, project management, and database functions into a single platform, allowing users to customize their workflows and enhance productivity.

Campaign Objective

Notion wrapped up 2024 by preparing for one of its most ambitious influencer campaigns to date. 

Notion Faces launched in the first week of 2025, introducing a custom avatar tool that allowed users to create hand-drawn profile pictures. The goal was to reinforce self-expression and individuality while driving engagement across LinkedIn.

To execute this at scale, Notion partnered with Creator Match to source and collaborate with over 80 creators across different niches. 

Featuring top creators like Luke Matthews, Brendan Hufford, and Stephanie Nuesi, the campaign tapped into diverse audiences to create a movement around personal branding and identity.

Standout Example

Stephanie Nuesi’s post captured the campaign’s essence through a personal and aspirational lens.

She framed Notion Faces as a way to step into the new year with confidence, embracing individuality instead of trying to “fit in.” 

The messaging resonated deeply with LinkedIn professionals, reinforcing the importance of authenticity in personal and professional spaces.

For brands looking to execute high-impact influencer marketing on LinkedIn, this campaign is proof of what’s possible when you pair the right creators with a message that resonates.

2. Giant Newspaper by Hootsuite

Hootsuite is a leading social media management platform that helps businesses schedule content, engage with audiences, and analyze performance across multiple social networks.

Campaign Objective

Hootsuite launched the Giant Newspaper campaign in late 2024 to drive traffic to its newly released Social Media Trends 2025 Report and increase downloads among marketing professionals.

Instead of relying on traditional promotions, Hootsuite took a highly visual, disruptive approach, featuring oversized newspapers with bold headlines to spark curiosity and conversation.

The brand partnered with Brandon Smithwrick, Sophie Miller, and Grace Andrews, leveraging their LinkedIn influence to highlight key insights from the report and encourage downloads.

Standout Example

Sophie Miller’s post perfectly aligned with the campaign’s goal.

She emphasized one of the report’s key findings—that comment sections are becoming more valuable than the content itself—making the insights feel both urgent and actionable.

By blending creativity with valuable industry insights, Hootsuite successfully turned a simple report release into a viral LinkedIn moment.

3. 9-5 Quitters Club by Teachable

Teachable is a platform that helps creators turn their expertise into online businesses. Whether through courses, coaching, or digital products, Teachable gives people the tools to monetize their knowledge and build careers on their own terms.

Campaign Objective

In late 2024, Teachable launched the 9-5 Quitters Club, a movement designed to challenge the traditional career path and inspire professionals to explore side hustles, freelancing, and entrepreneurship.

The campaign included subway ads in New York City, a dedicated podcast, a newsletter, and a practical manual to help people take the first steps toward career independence.

To bring this conversation to LinkedIn, Teachable partnered with Creator Match to execute the influencer-led portion of the campaign. 

The campaign featured 10+ creators, including Megan Lieu, AJ Eckstein, and Colby Kultgen, to spark discussions around redefining success in the modern workplace.

Standout Example

Megan Lieu’s post perfectly captured the heart of the campaign.

Instead of just talking about career shifts, she shared her own story—how getting laid off from her corporate job became the moment she finally bet on herself.

By tying this back to Teachable, Megan showed how the platform gives people the tools to take that leap. Her story resonated because it was real, relatable, and deeply personal.

The 9-5 Quitters Club worked because it spoke to a movement that was already happening—people craving more freedom in their work. Instead of pushing a product, it gave them a community, a conversation, and the tools to make it happen.

4. Price Lock by Lyft

Lyft is one of the largest ride-sharing platforms in North America, offering affordable and convenient transportation solutions. Competing with Uber, Lyft has positioned itself as a rider-first company, consistently rolling out features that enhance the experience for both drivers and passengers.

Campaign Objective

Lyft wanted to drive awareness and adoption of its Price Lock feature, which ensures riders always know the maximum fare they’ll pay, thereby eliminating the frustration of unpredictable surge pricing.

The campaign targeted commuters, busy professionals, and budget-conscious riders, showing how locking in fares can make daily transportation more reliable and stress-free.

To spread the word, Lyft partnered with creators like Jalonni Weaver, Andy Pearson, and Jess Ramos, who shared personal stories about how Price Lock made their daily routines smoother.

Standout Example

Jess Ramos’ post captured the relatability of the campaign by addressing a common pain point—morning commutes.

She highlighted the stress of rushing out the door, battling traffic, and worrying about parking, setting up a scenario that many professionals know all too well. 

Then, she introduced Lyft’s Price Lock as the perfect solution, allowing her to skip the stress and get to work without breaking the bank.

Her post worked because it didn’t just explain the feature. By tapping into a daily frustration and providing a simple, reliable alternative, she helped Lyft connect with its ideal audience in an authentic way.

5. ClipAnything by OpusClip

OpusClip is an AI-powered video repurposing tool that helps creators and businesses transform long-form videos into short, high-impact clips for social media. By using advanced AI to detect key moments, OpusClip makes it easier for content marketers to maximize the reach and lifespan of their videos without spending hours editing.

Campaign Objective

Content burnout is real, especially for creators and marketers constantly brainstorming fresh ideas. OpusClip wanted to position its AI tool, ClipAnything, as the go-to solution for repurposing content effortlessly.

To showcase its impact, Creator Match partnered with top LinkedIn creators, including Jayde I. Powell, Debora Prossomariti, and Brandon Smithwrick, to highlight how OpusClip helps them save time while keeping their content pipeline full.

Standout Example

Brandon Smithwrick’s post made a strong case for why repurposing content is crucial.

Instead of just explaining the tool, he addressed a common frustration many content creators face: spending too much time creating new content instead of maximizing what they already have.

By demonstrating how OpusClip instantly pulled clips from a 10-month-old video, he turned a product demo into a relatable solution for overworked marketers.
