FAQs

Why is it important to identify your target audience?

Your campaigns will be more successful if you have identified target audiences with a considered strategy of how to engage with them. Ads that are sent to broad audiences without considering relevance tend to have less engagement than ads sent to relevant audiences. Identifying target audiences also helps you optimise your media budget by only reaching audiences who might be interested your product.

What is audience segmentation?

Audience segmentation is a strategy defined as the organisation of various types of audiences to reach them with your ads and campaigns. By dividing your customers into audience segments, it becomes easier to reach them with relevant ads. In contrast, creating ads with a broad or generic statement can make them less likely to appeal to customers.

How do you identify your target audience?

Identifying your audience will vary by advertiser but in general you will want to understand all of the signals available, evaluate past campaign behaviour and your current campaign goals in order to identify what audiences you want to reach on a given campaign.
