Targeting your customers based on their profile and interest
In the recent times, you have observed that there are lot of innovations that are occurring
in the space of targeting people based on their profiles as well as interests. As there
is a lot of data and tools that is now available for businesses that are not so tech savvy.
Only thing, that is needed,is to be innovative enough so that you can use this options in
an appropriate manner. That is exactly what you will learn in this training.
we l give you a sneak peak into some of the lessons that we would be covering during the
actual training program. If you look into various ways of targeting options that are available
in an online space right now, you can simply divide them into two kinds of targets. One is
interest targeting in which you target users based on the content they are publishing,
& also the content they are consuming & engaging. For instance, you can target users based on the posts that they have
published or if you go to Google, you can actually target people based on the kind of keywords
that they are using, you can also go to Twitter and look for people who are engaging around
a particular twitter hashtag. Another kind of targeting option, which is
available in online space, is profile targeting in which you target people based on personal
and professional profile. Such kinds of targeting options have become more and more popular
these days, which is primarily because of the large-scale adoption of the social media
platforms. The third type of targeting is location based targeting. You can target people
based on the location specified in their profile & also their current location. There are some
platforms that allow you to undertake interests, as well as profile targeting while
many others allow either of the interest or profile targeting. Based on the kind of people that you are looking for,
you have to use a mix and match of various platforms that you have picked up for building
reach so that you can effectively reach out to right set of people that you are looking for.
To give you a better understanding of this, one of the methods that is very popular these
days for doing interest targeting is remarketing, in which you actually target visitors of your
website on other websites in real time. Google calls this process as remarketing, but if
you want to remarket people on Facebook, they call it as retargeting. However, in a way
both are relatively similar. Remarketing actually helps you to stay in
touch with your visitors. In turn, it will help you to reinforce the message, which is
personalized to their behavior on your website. It has lot of advantage and it can be really
innovative and can help you to create really innovative advertisements. This is one of
the methods which is increasingly becoming popular while you are thinking of doing interest
targeting in online space. Another recent advancement of Facebook is
that you can now create an advertisement on Facebook where in you can specify the email
ids of people to whom that particular ad can be shown. For instance, if you have a huge
email database and then what you can do is while sending out an email to all of them you can reinforce the message
by simultaneously creating the
advertisement on Face book so that when they visit their Facebook, they will also see your
advertisement. Additionally, you can design the language of the ad in the manner that engage
them to check the email as well. That might help you to get better open rate
and click through rate on your emails and it might also helps you
to get better click through rate on the ads that you are creating on facebook.
We will discuss more about targeting in the actual session.
