Target

Working together, we dive into our panel of almost 1M survey respondents to identify your target audience using any combination of our 57K+ profiling points. We then work with you to construct a highly-focused questionnaire to find out what your chosen audience really thinks. We then recontact your chosen pool of respondents to complete the questionnaire.

What is audience profiling?

Audience profiling is the process of collating and segmenting audience data to build a holistic view of your target consumers so you can market to them better. It can help you create more personalized content, optimize your messaging to drive conversions, and enhance your ad effectiveness.

Why is audience profiling important?

Truly understanding what makes your target audience unique takes the guesswork out of creating strategy. If you know what your audience wants, how they shop, and where they hang out online, you can build highly-targeted campaigns that drive results time after time, ensuring no effort is wasted.

What are the four principles of audience profiling?

The core principles are:

  1. Profiling: Collecting and analyzing data to create highly defined audiences.
  2. Messaging: Drilling down into what core messages will really resonate with your audience.
  3. Engagement: Devising a strategy on how to best target your audience to drive maximum returns.
  4. Measurement: Evaluating the impact and effectiveness of your campaigns.
