What if you could target only the people who would actually buy something from your store? It almost sounds too good to be true. But it’s real, and it’s happening right now. Prospecting ads allow you to reach these ideal shoppers with the use of advanced data tracking. They eliminate manual demographic targeting and drive qualified traffic to your website. Let’s take a closer look at the magic behind prospecting ads.
Prospecting ads should not be confused with retargeting ads. Marketers use retargeting ads to recapture existing leads. These are people who have either been to your site before, made a purchase or have unpurchased items in their cart. Retargeting ads are an essential part of your strategy, but they’re not the same as prospecting ads.
Prospecting ads use a lot of the same data used in retargeting campaigns. But the goal is to attract new customers who match the profiles of your existing shoppers. This takes your digital marketing game to a whole new level. When you combine retargeting with prospecting, you’ve got a well-rounded strategy that will have your sales funnel running like a well-oiled machine.
In the past, the acquisition process relied heavily on trial and error. Not anymore. Prospecting uses machine-learning algorithms to serve ads to potential customers based on their behavior. Instead of manually setting demographics, you use data from your existing customers to target similar users. It takes a lot of the guesswork out of customer acquisition.
Prospecting also allows you to display ads to users at just the right moment. Users want to be shown ads in a way that doesn’t disrupt the natural flow of their feed. Prospecting ads rely on context to create a seamless experience for customers. This results in better engagement and more conversions.
Prospecting ads are quickly becoming the standard, and it’s not hard to see why. Lookalike campaigns are very powerful. Shops like Intelligent Blends have been able to earn back 10x their ad spend in a single month. In the end, they were able to double their sales and generate $8K in purchases. That’s a serious return on investment.
In fact, prospecting ads generate an average of 3x-5x return on ad spend for 90% stores that try them. Who doesn’t want that? The numbers don’t lie. It’s not really a question of if you can afford to run prospecting ads. It’s whether you can afford NOT to.
