In the past, advertisers had to content themselves with incredibly broad targeting options with their advertising. Today, however, the possibilities for advertising targeting are virtually limitless – to the point that it’s actually a little creepy. However, for advertisers, this granularity is amazingly powerful, and even more so if you layer your targeting options.
This technique can be extraordinarily effective is used strategically. Most companies are sufficiently impressed by the ability to target prospective customers of a certain age range, household income, and level of educational attainment. However, by layering these already-powerful targeting options with additional data – say, by incorporating purchasing behavior on top of demographic data – you can leverage these combinations to create timely, relevant campaigns.
