Jul 28, 2023

How would you rate the performance of your marketing campaigns? Would you give it a rating 10 out of 10, or that the result didn’t really reflect the marketing efforts and costs that you have invested into? This is a good chance to review and rectify your retargeting strategy. In this blog, we will share with you an effective “Retargeting 2.0” strategy that is driven by third-party data and has proven to increase conversion rate in a recent insurance campaign.

Traditional Retargeting Campaign Flow

Typically, traditional retargeting campaigns target users who have previously interacted with a brand, or browsing products or addicting items to carts on the website. The main objective is to redirect those web visitors back to the website, or encourage them to take specific action, such as making a purchase. However, the conversion rate might not be as appealing, roughly 10% or less.
