How Your Retargeting Campaign can Save you Time and Money
Author: Rebecca Daneault
Perhaps you've heard of retargeting, the innovative marketing technique that effectively brings back potential customers after they leave your site and surf the web. But as effective as it is at increasing conversion rates, you may not realize that a retargeting campaign can also save you time and money. There aren't too many business owners who couldn't benefit from that.
Let's take a moment to examine exactly how retargeting can add value to your business.
Retargeting advertising works by placing a tiny snippet of code on your site that keeps track of your visitor's behavior, such as which pages they viewed. If those visitors decide to leave your site, you can then use the information you obtained to display your ads to them as they surf the web and visit other websites. It's a highly effective way of keeping your brand on their minds and reminding those "window shoppers" that when they're ready to buy, it's you they should buy from.
The technique is optimized by working with marketing service providers, like AdRoll, who collaborate with the largest exchanges on the internet. This ensures that your ads will be able to reach your audience across multiple networks, maximizing your online exposure and keeping your brand on their mind wherever they may roam on the web.
But how exactly can retargeting help you realize a savings? It's really quite simple. Because this technique allows you to build and display ads that are specific to the product that your audience has already shown an interest in, it increases the chances of them clicking on your ads significantly. This increase in CTR also means a sizeable savings in cost per click – in some cases as much as 70%!
The clicks generated from retargeting campaigns are typically more valuable than those derived from traditional display because the people clicking on retargeted ads have already shown interest in what you're marketing to them. It only stands to reason, then, that your chances are much greater that by clicking on that ad, they're coming back to make a purchase. Considering how much you probably spend on your traditional display campaigns, the value of retargeting becomes even more evident.
In addition to cost savings, retargeting can also save you time by optimizing your marketing efforts. Instead of spending countless hours researching for your traditional marketing strategies, retargeting does much of the work for you. And because it goes after the "ones who got away", you no longer have to spend time analyzing ways of how to blindly win them back. Your retargeted ads will do this for you, and much more accurately than you ever could on your own.
Reaching your audience on the endless expanse of the internet can be expensive and time consuming. And if you're like most business owners, you have a limited budget and only so much time that you can dedicate to your marketing activities, as important as they may be. Retargeting lets you maximize both areas by allowing you to quickly and easily reach an already pre-screened audience, thereby increasing your chances of converting. So what are you waiting for? Start seeing your own savings by launching your own retargeting campaign today.
