Summary: In this episode of The LinkedIn Ads Show, host AJ Wilcox sits down with Adam Robinson, founder of RB2B.com, to discuss the hot (and surprisingly free) trend of website visitor identification—what it is, how it works, and how B2B marketers can use it to level up their LinkedIn Ads strategy. Adam shares how RB2B helps marketers identify individual website visitors—complete with LinkedIn profiles, emails, and more—and how this signal can be used for lead generation, retargeting, and enhanced CRM workflows. Together, AJ and Adam walk through a real case study where just $200 in LinkedIn ad spend drove a 1,478% spike in traffic and real pipeline results. The episode also takes a valuable detour into organic content and personal branding, offering gold-level insight on how to find your voice on LinkedIn, what makes a "banger" post, and why authenticity trumps polish. Key Takeaways: Visitor identification is a powerful signal—not a silver bullet Knowing exactly who is on your site gives your sales and marketing teams an edge—but it needs to be used thoughtfully and with context. Use CRM integration to turn raw identity into smart outreach When integrated with tools like HubSpot or Salesforce, visitor identity can trigger customized workflows based on your defined ICP and buyer journey stage. Thought leadership ads can drive high-impact, low-cost traffic Combine high-performing organic posts with paid amplification, and use tools like RB2B to retarget visitors across channels—even without cookies.

Retention.com hit $22m of revenue in 2024 on the back of Adam Robinson and team bootstrapping. Wanting to get into B2B, they laucnhed an IP lookup tool called RB2B which competes with Clearbit and 6Sense. How has he used Linkedin to grow? What's driving his 8% free to paid conversion rate? Can he fix churn before its too late?

Adam Robinson struggled to compete with MailChimp. So he built software that’s too dangerous for them to build. Businesses that use Retention.com can instantly grab email addresses from anonymous website visitors — even if they never fill out a form. To promote his software he made himself into one of the few interesting follows on LinkedIn by picking fights, bringing drama and adding production values. Adam Robinson is the founder and CEO of Retention.com, which identifies email addresses from anonymous website visitors. He previously worked in finance but launched the email marketing company Robly after the 2008 financial crisis jeopardized his career. Following an 8-figure exit, he bootstrapped retention.com to over $21M in ARR. Sponsored byGusto – The easy payroll and benefits software the Mixergy interviewees love.
