Behavioral targeting is the process of marketing to people who are most likely to use your products or services based on their demonstrated behavior. This behavior may be online (for example, keywords searched, websites visited) or offline (location tracking data, for example).
Content, whether in the form of a video, a newsletter, an ad, or anything else, needs to reach the target audience at the right time to make an impression. A good content distribution strategy, then, finds the best ways to provide content to audiences.
Content distribution involves using at least one of a number of distribution channels: paid, owned, or earned. Paid distribution channels include advertisements; owned channels include company newsletters or websites; earned channels include shares and reviews.
Nowadays, the abundance of data and the advances in Machine Learning and big data applications reduce the need for top-down segmentation of customers. Smart customer clustering based on many commonalities help companies better address customer needs to provide the right experience and divide resources efficiently.
Influencer marketing is the practice of hiring influencers—prominent social media users with active engagement on their posts—to sell a product or service.
Mobile app development entails more than just crafting an attractive and simple user interface (UI) for established customers; it involves designing a secure app that uses very little RAM yet is compatible with different devices. A particularly well-developed app should also be capable of scaling to meet customer demand as your company grows.
Most if not all companies and organizations seek to establish themselves in social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram in addition to their official website. Online and social media performance tracking is meant to analyze the effectiveness of a company's social media presence. Are they generating new leads? Are they promoting brand awareness? These questions are important to assess the efficiency of the use of these social media platforms.
An online recommendation engine is software that analyzes available user data to generate suggestions for something the user may also be interested in. Such engines are used in an advertising capacity to promote products or services or for the purpose of recommending similar content to the content the user has consumed in the past, such as in streaming services and online shopping services.
As opposed to customer segmentation which divides the market into groups based on demographics and purchase history, persona detection and segmentation creates more personal profiles in order to better understand potential customers using information about behavior, attitude and personal journeys.
Sales forecasting is the system by which future sales volumes are estimated—at what price, during which time, and in which market. Product performance forecasting enables businesses to make informed decisions in both the short term and the long term. Machine learning software is continually improved, providing businesses with better analysis all the time—faster and more reliably than manual methods.
In the current era, consumers expect the firms they engage with to provide personalized service and offers. They believe that companies have the technological tools to analyze their specific needs and can perform this task with minimal effort, so businesses should develop such ability.
One may imagine that this kind of mass operation will need some resources and financial investment but by implementing artificial intelligence and automated processes, this capability can be readily available for any business.
Traditionally, personalization was focused on a set of rules based on existing data. The firms used to collect data in advance without any consideration for real time data but now better and much faster results can be obtained by using AI that allows businesses to conduct profiling and real-time analysis to optimize each conversion. This process is defined as Predictive Personalization and is driven by Machine Learning.
Promotional planning is the process of optimizing marketing tools, strategies, and resources to promote a product or service to generate demand and meet set objectives. Artificial intelligence (AI) can be used to effectively plan promotional events, measuring their outcomes, and adjusting as necessary to achieve growth.
Remarketing campaigns show ads to people who have visited a business's website or downloaded one of its apps. Remarketing is designed to get potential customers who have shown interest in your product or service to recall your business and their intent to buy, therefore enlarging the odds of them converting.
Targeted marketing is a marketing strategy which identifies an audience that is most likely to buy a product or service and subsequently creates a marketing campaign designed specifically to advertise said product or service to the target audience, using advertisements and promotional messages. This allows different companies to hone in on certain market segments, creating a "specialty" and possibly lowering competition with similar companies.
