Display Marketing – Connecting with Customers in the Evaluate Phase
RETARGET TO RECONNECT
Prospects will likely visit your website during the Evaluate phase, and most are anonymous to you. Reconnect with them after they’ve expressed interest, but may not have been quite ready to engage more deeply with you. Retargeting gives you ability to present a relevant message to people who have visited your website or performed a relevant search. Create retargeting segments based on specific website pages and personalize the ad creative based on prospects’ previous interests for effective B2B display advertising.
Get specific: address the specific interests your prospects have revealed through their website visits. If they visited a page about Content Marketing Strategy, retarget them with an ad related to Content Marketing Strategy.
