Hyper-Targeting Is Personalization On Steroids

Hyper-Targeting Is Personalization On Steroids

Personalization should be an essential part of building a successful advertising campaign.  Today, customers want to feel special. They want to know that they are not party of an indiscriminate group of people. While personalization isn’t new, it is becoming increasingly popular amongst consumers.  In a recent study published by InstaPage, 80% of all consumers report they are more likely to buy from a brand that offers personalized experiences.

More Stats That Support Personalization:

Marketers in large numbers are leveraging hyper-targeting data to facilitate that.

Some Of The Benefits Of Hyper-Targeting:

  • Delivery of personalized marketing messages that are relevant to what customers actual want and need
  • Higher ROAS (Return On Ad Spend) because brands can reach the right audience not waste ad spend
  • Generate more sales by marketing the right offerings to the right customers on the right platforms

How To Get Started with Hyper-Targeting:

To implement personalization and hyper-targeting into your marketing strategy you will need a few things.

  • Buyer Personas: Effective hyper-targeting campaigns begins with you knowing exactly who you want to target. We recommend segmenting your target audiences into different segments. The first step in separating these segments by:
  • Age
  • Gender
  • Income
  • Marital Status
  • Geographic Location
  • Number of Children
  • Occupation
  • Educational Level
  • Psychographics: The next step is to dive deeper into understanding who your idea client is to create a psychographic profile that builds on the demographic profile. Psychographic data focuses on attitudes, aspirations, interests, lifestyle behaviors and other psychological criteria. Unlike building personas that uses demographics, psychographics is more touch-feely and covers subjects such as:
  • Mindset and attitude
  • Beliefs and opinions
  • Aspirations, goals, wishes
  • Interests (parental tips, travel destinations, hunting, pet ownership, politics, sports, weight loss, etc.)
  • Activities (hobbies, books, stores, restaurants, TV shows, movies)
  • Personality and values
  • Lifestyle and priorities
  • How they spend their money
  • Worries, fears and aspiration
  • Behavioral Analysis: The process of understanding the behavior of an audience segment builds upon demographic data and psychographic information to ascertain what influences your segments to make buying decisions such as when they buy and how they buy. Behavioral analysis of your audiences allows you garner insights into how the actions they take in relation to what you are selling and offering.  Something things you should look at are:
  • What type of emails and subject lines they open most
  • What type of blogs do they read most
  • Analytical data that triggers a sale (i.e. social media, coupons, product videos, customer reviews, etc.)
  • Sales data such as time of year, holidays, special promotions
  • Determining what motivates new customers
  • Understanding why repeat customers continue to buy
  • Product information such as who uses your product/service the most, how do they use it (time of day, week, frequency)
  • How prospective customers gather information before making a purchase
  • How they are affected by price, quality, convenience and prestige

By investing the time and resources into creating specific, detailed personas, you will be able to tailor-make personalized ads and email campaigns personalizing your customer experience and filling your sales funnel with qualified leads.
