Targeting

Our targeting solutions are built on verified, real-world purchase behavior, not assumptions. By segmenting audiences based on what consumers buy, you can focus your advertising on the individuals most likely to take action. This level of precision not only increases efficiency but also drives better results by reducing wasted spend. When your message reaches the right buyer at the right time, your brand is positioned to grow with greater impact.

3X Higher ROAS

Brands tapping into purchase-based targeting (PBT) are seeing up to 3x higher ROAS than traditional methods.

Enhance Strategy with Purchase-Based Targeting Services

Flexible Activation Across Every Channel

Identifying the right audience is key to brand growth. That’s why we make activating PBT as easy as 1-2-3. Purchase-based audiences can be obtained at publishers, TV providers, DSPs, onboarders and directly with us for use with clean room integrations, or on programmatic, TV and mobile channels. Access publicly available audiences, or receive a custom-built audience to find your buyers wherever they are. With our latest enhancements, you can be confident that our public audience segments will help you find and activate your best buyers more efficiently and, ultimately, increase incremental sales.

Stronger Performance Backed by Measurable Impact

Proven Trends: 77% of consumer-packaged goods marketers use purchase-based targeting in their campaigns.
