Audience Targeting
What is Audience Targeting? Audience Targeting is a way for marketers to reach likely consumers with precision and scale based on their past online and offline behaviors, interests, location, and demographic information. Marketers can use this information to create tailored ads and target customers when they are likely to buy a product or use a service. If a customer has filled out a form, visits your website, or is observed inside your brick-and-mortar location, you can also create an audience segment to retarget these customers at a later point in time. The more relevant targeting parameters you use to create your target audience, the more effective your advertising campaign will be in terms of results and cost.

Beacon Advertising
What is Beacon Advertising? Beacon advertising is an advertising technique to target consumers based on their physical location. This is made possible by way of a small device, called a beacon, which runs on batteries and is installed in a physical location (e.g. a retail store countertop). These beacons then send out messages or advertisements to consumers mobile phones via Bluetooth. The radius of targeting can be specific to where the consumer is standing or widened out to a defined range. Beacon advertising can be used to move consumers through the whole conversion funnel, from placing a beacon outside a store to urge them to enter to providing a coupon as a user browses and providing one-click payment on their phone when the consumer is ready to pay. Beacon advertising has its use cases still today, however, in general, the technology has been replaced by better, more effective solutions.
