People-Based Marketing
What is People-Based Marketing and Why it is Important for Marketing
Traditionally, marketers broadcasted their message far and wide, hoping that the target audience had a chance to see it online. The second approach was cookie-based. This meant that based on browsing habits, companies would know where you liked to shop and the types of products you look at. It sounds great in theory, but it misses a huge part of the puzzle since cookie-based marketing can’t differentiate situations.
“The problem is the linkage,” explains Experian, “How was a cookie associated with the person to whom the ad is being served?
As marketers, we need to make sure that we are reaching the right people with the right ad, and more importantly not reaching those people who have opted out. Cookie-based marketing also produced false positives if you mistyped, clicked on something out of curiosity, or let someone use your computer. Now, an additional type of marketing has come into use: people-based marketing.
What is people-based marketing?
Also called cross-device marketing, people-based marketing leverages technology to market to people across channels. Targeted ads are delivered on different devices and platforms based on user behavior. Most people and companies refer to it as people based marketing because the key is understanding the person behind it all that enables people based marketing to take place.
While consumer-driven content isn’t new, people-based marketing is a new wave in the industry, pushing marketers to use personalized data resulting from recent developments in big data and analytics. People-Based Marketing is strategic approach to marketing in which marketers target individual people, rather than groups, with relevant messaging across different channels and touchpoints. An optimized PBM strategy leverages both consumer identification for accuracy and automation for scale.
Shifting the focus from cookies to people, marketers of the future realize they have all the data at their fingertips. The good ones just know what to do with it.
