  • Specify the poster type (person or company) and refine further based on numerous attributes like industry, location, role specifics, company size, and other company metrics.

  • Engage with content by choosing actions like liking, commenting, messaging, and sharing.

  3. Choose frequency – Same flexible cadence as Post Finder (hourly → weekly).

  4. Create + Scan – The Ghost reviews every new post from those pages and surfaces the ones matching your goal.

2.2 Why Use It

  • Account‑based sales – Spot literal buying signals (like hiring sprees, budget announcements, tech migrations or any other conversation you can describe) from target logos.

  • Customer success – Catch early churn signals or celebrate wins publicly.

    Monitor posts from specific LinkedIn users — prospects, customers, partners — without writing complex queries. You can still reference the keywords that matter by describing them in the goal.

    3.1 How it works

    1. Select the users – Three options:

      • Paste profile URLs individually or in bulk.

      • Drag‑and‑drop a CSV that contains a single column of profile URLs.

      • Smart Sync (HubSpot) – Connect any HubSpot list to pull the contacts you want to monitor automatically (for example, all open opportunities or current customers).

    2. Describe your goal – Write in plain English what kinds of posts should be surfaced (e.g., “Posts talking about our brand, PitchGhost”).

    3. Choose frequency – Same cadence options as other Ghosts (hourly → weekly).

    4. Create + Scan – The Ghost reviews every new post from those users and returns only the posts that match your goal.

    3.2 Common uses

    • Pipeline monitoring – Stay informed on the LinkedIn activity of prospects in your CRM.

    • Customer success – Catch customer wins or potential issues as soon as they share them publicly.

    • Partner relations – Keep up with advisors or strategic partners without manual checking.
