Data &
Audiences

The use of data and target groups is an essential part of campaign management and has only become more important in recent years. Although often underexposed, also because it is technical in nature, it is one of the ways to make a difference in achieving the objectives. We at Hide and Seek use Data & Audiences to its full potential.

What concerns
Data & Audiences?

Data and target groups can come across as a broad, abstract concept. You may be familiar with the terms 1st and 3rd party. 1st-party data refers to data that is managed in-house, for example, CRM customer data. 3rd-party data refers to data that platforms such as Google and Meta collect from users. Because these platforms are technically finding it increasingly difficult to collect this data, 1st-party data is becoming increasingly important.

The data can be used, among other things, to create target groups. Think of target groups such as website visitors, users who have recently purchased something, or existing customers. The larger and more sophisticated these audiences are, the better. We help our customers with that. Of course, with the GDPR legislation in mind.


What is the
importance of
Data & Audiences?

Data is essential to measure the success of campaigns. Without correct data, it is impossible to see whether the objectives are being achieved and what online advertising yields. This data is increasingly being used as input by platforms such as Google and Meta for optimizing campaigns. The more and better data these platforms have at their disposal, the better campaigns will perform.

Target groups are essential to reaching the right users and achieving the objectives. For example, do we want to reach a certain target group again because they have recently visited the website or watched a video on social media, or do we no longer want to reach them because they recently bought something? Existing target groups also serve as input for, for example, Google and Meta to tap into a new target group. The better the target groups are in order and the larger they are, the better campaigns will perform.

Customer data is owned by your company. Indispensable in contemporary online marketing.
