Breaking Through the Noise with a Tailored Advertising Approach

Breaking Through the Noise with a Tailored Advertising Approach

Capturing attention can be difficult in the B2B advertising space, but the ability to tailor your approach to your audience’s preferences can help you break through the noise. By leveraging insights gathered from analytics reports and strategic conversations, you can unlock the full picture of your target audience. When utilized effectively, you can help build brand awareness and trust as well as provide the tools necessary to push prospects through the funnel by way of individualized conversations between sales and target accounts. 

How exactly does this process work?  

Once your target audience has been defined and your ad campaign has deployed, AdDaptive provides performance updates throughout the flight via the Campaign Analytics report. After the flight ends, you will receive the Site Analytics report showing which of the targeted accounts are interacting with your client’s website via your ad campaign. These actionable analytics paired with strategic conversations with our experts will give you a holistic view of your audience and the types of content that resonate with them. 

Now it’s time to use what you’ve learned to break through the noise. 

When you know your audience’s preferences, you can tailor your advertising approach to fit their needs. Build brand awareness and trust by sending engaging marketing emails to colder prospects to stay top of mind rather than being labeled “just another email notification.” Sales teams can leverage engagement data from said emails to initiate individualized conversations with prospects to meet them where they are in the buying process and begin building relationships. Think of this like sending a birthday card to a friend. You could sign your name at the bottom of a store-bought card with a generic birthday wish, but taking time to write a more personal message would stand out and show that you understand their needs. 

What does this look like in practice? 

In your Site Analytics report, you might notice one of your prospects has spent significant time on the “product features” tab on your client’s website. Your client’s sales team can take advantage of this info by reaching out to the prospect with the right message at the right time. For example, they could say “Hi (insert name here), we noticed you were exploring our product features page and thought you might be interested in this one-sheet explaining our solution a little more in-depth. Do you have any questions I could help answer?” This way prospects are being met where they are in their independent research process and are being provided another piece of content that will keep them informed, engaged, and moving through the funnel. 

Let’s keep the prospects moving. 

As prospect relationships grow, continued individualized conversations will help propel them towards purchase. With each campaign you will be able to learn more about your audience and hone in on the things that matter most to them. Just by simply running your ad campaign and interpreting your analytics reports through strategic conversations with our experts, you will know your client’s target audience best. Now you can provide exactly what prospects are looking for, making their buying process quick and easy. 

Actionable analytics and a strategic partnership with AdDaptive are the most important tools for building lasting relationships with your prospects and tailoring your advertising approach to your target accounts’ needs. Laying a strong foundation of brand awareness and trust through individualized conversations with prospects will not only help push prospects through the funnel but keep them coming back again and again. 

That’s the AdDaptive Advantage.

This blog post is the third of a three-part series featuring samples of AdDaptive’s three separate report offerings. 

Accurate web traffic attribution

Brand websites and landing pages are a main component of digital advertising, and it is vital to properly track site traffic to these pages that stems from ad campaigns. This level of website traffic attribution proves each campaign’s performance in terms of lift and return on ad spend (ROAS).

With all of the visitors flowing to your brand’s website from organic searches, sponsored content links, ad clicks, and more it can be difficult to distinguish the source of each visitor. For the most accurate campaign attribution, a combination of reports should be reviewed and analyzed at the end of the flight. In addition to a Campaign Analytics report, AdDaptive’s Site Analytics report provides the necessary insights to connect the dots between campaigns, web traffic, and closed sales. 

Tie your ad campaigns directly to the ebbs and flows of website traffic

Our Site Analytics report is customizable to reflect how your audience segments are reaching your campaign goals. Whether you choose to provide a specific predefined list of target accounts, vertical markets, or another combination of ABM targeting parameters, AdDaptive’s report will show which accounts are being drawn to your brand’s website by clicking through your ad campaign(s).

When it comes to website analytics, the key KPI is pageviews. AdDaptive’s Site Analytics report begins with a list of the names of the top 20 companies that have visited your campaign’s landing page as a result of clicking your ad. The report shows pageviews before an account was served an ad, pageviews after the account was served an ad, and the percentage change, showing the impact of the ad campaign on your web traffic and thus brand engagement. From there, you can either streamline or expand your audience as desired based upon the reported analytics to achieve further lift.

The Site Analytics report then continues to break down pageviews/impressions on your landing page from various angles including NAICS code, sales volume, and company size.

The data included in this report gives you a full scope of how your ad campaigns drive traffic to your website, with a single pixel placement on the campaign’s landing page. 

These accurate figures provide the insights you need to adjust your campaign, drive more traffic to your website, and ultimately increase lift and ROAS. 

Link your ad campaigns to subsequent increases in website traffic with the help of AdDaptive. Our Site Analytics report gives you the insights you need to identify which of your target accounts are showing interest, and push them through the sales funnel with speed and ease according to their engagement with your content.

Analytics in Action: Campaign Analytics

This blog post is the second of a three-part series featuring samples of AdDaptive’s three separate report offerings. 

An analytics report can be a helpful tool for ad campaign success. But data needs to be understood to be valuable;  strategic context behind the numbers will bring your ad campaigns to the next level.

AdDaptive’s expert Accounts Team gives progress updates throughout your campaign’s delivery by providing a Campaign Analytics report. Strategic conversations with Accounts open up opportunities to adjust your approach for future campaign iterations to ensure maximum ROAS.

What exactly are you getting in the Campaign Analytics report? Let’s take a closer look.

The Campaign Analytics report organizes your ad campaign’s impressions, clicks, CTR, and engagement metrics into firmographic sections. The first section breaks down your performance by location. You can view a heat map of your engagements as well as a state-by-state view. This way you can see where your engagements are coming from and make location-based targeting decisions for your campaigns. 

The next section of the report shows how your campaign results were spread across your original targeting specifications. You can see your impressions delivered to businesses of a particular size by number of employees and overall sales revenue. You can also see impressions delivered to businesses that fall within certain NAICS codes and the names of businesses that were served your ads. From here, you can decide if you want to update your targeting approach based on the interactions your campaign received. For example, if you received high amounts of engagements from smaller companies, you could choose to exclude larger companies from your targeting parameters to narrow in on your highest value accounts and reduce waste.

 

The following section shows the distribution of your impressions tied to each creative size you used in your campaign and your individual creatives by name. This is a great way to see which creatives are resonating the most with your target audience. Now you can update your media mix to boost engagement.

 

Finally, the Optimizations & Recommendations section gives you insight into the measures AdDaptive took to optimize your campaign and recommendations for how to approach future campaigns. One type of optimization, for example, could be to filter out underperforming accounts to minimize waste. These future recommendations will be a jumping off point for your strategic conversations with the AdDaptive Team to further refine your campaigns, bringing you closer to your advertising goals.

Combining the Campaign Analytics report with a strategic partnership with AdDaptive’s team of experts will add context to the data and bring your campaigns to the next level. The ability to track your performance and have a holistic understanding of your analytics to inform your next move will reflect positively in your ROAS. The power of the Campaign Analytics report lies in the context!

That’s the AdDaptive Advantage.

Analyze Brand Engagement and Lift from Ads with AdDaptive’s New Site Analytics Report

For years, B2B advertisers have been searching for analytics reports with the utmost accuracy, which they can rely on to make strategic decisions. As such, beyond the precision of the data itself, advertisers need to know what to do with the report. A report is just a collection of numbers until someone makes sense of it, adding context and connecting a story through the data in order for the information to come to life. In other words, a B2B analytics report is most valuable when it is both accurate and actionable.

AdDaptive’s new Site Analytics report is the best of both worlds.

While AdDaptive has always been a leader in the industry when it comes to transparent analytics reports, we never rest. We are constantly looking for new ways to equip advertisers with the tools they will need to engage their target accounts, implement tailored outreach, and move prospects through the funnel. With the newest addition to AdDaptive’s robust B2B analytics offering, Site Analytics informs advertisers about their key accounts, illustrating engagement by account in association with a brand’s ABM efforts in a way that helps advertisers identify prospective companies’ interest through lift. As such, advertisers can clearly evaluate the effectiveness of their ad campaigns as evidenced by key accounts engaging with the content on their website after being shown ads. This, in turn, fuels funnel movement, as advertisers will use these insights to better engage and motivate their target audience.

Perhaps most valuably, leveraging Site Analytics reports will help advertisers decide what to do next — whether to target engaged accounts with more specific messaging in subsequent ad campaigns, to equip their sales team with engagement data that will lead to more personalized outreach, to create new content based on the preferences of their key accounts, or to add media type combinations to keep prospects engaged and moving through the funnel.

In other words, Site Analytics doesn’t just show the difference an ad campaign makes in terms of site traffic – it arms advertisers with valuable knowledge about their key accounts. AdDaptive’s team will then work with advertisers to figure out how best to leverage the data in the report to yield positive impact.

Site Analytics is now part of AdDaptive’s standard reporting suite offered to customers: Under the Account Insight Reporting (AIR) umbrella, customers now receive Campaign Analytics and Site Analytics reports. Using the Site Analytics report in conjunction with AdDaptive’s Campaign Analytics allows advertisers to learn more about their key accounts, understand how their content is resonating, and optimize how they reach their target audience. The two reports complement each other by showing data on the delivery and performance of an ad campaign (in the Campaign Analytics report) then illustrating key accounts’ engagement with content on-site (in the Site Analytics report), thus providing a holistic view of companies’ key accounts that will allow maximum strategic optimization toward KPIs.
