Are location-based segments the answer for marketer’s identity crisis?
For marketers, the cookie is an essential way of understanding consumers, their interests, and how best to deliver them relevant and engaging content and ads. Whatever happens with the cookie, many marketers have agreed that moving towards people-based marketing is a direction that the industry is well advised to take.
That’s why at Tamoco, we’re focused on supporting a marketer’s ability to be better at people-based marketing. We believe that device location can help build distinct audience segments based on real-world locations that drive results.
Tamoco has been in the location space for a while now. We started by using beacons and other sensors to deliver push notifications to users. A lot has changed since those days, but we feel that there’s still a lot that needs to be done for marketers.
The power of location-based targeting has been proven, but we think we’ve built something that gives marketers better certainty when using location-based segments.
For us, this all comes down to accuracy. For consumers, there’s nothing worse than a lack of relevance in their advertising. We noticed that much of the location data that was being used to target consumers was simply inaccurate.
That’s why we built our visits product. It takes multiple device signals (such as movement type, acceleration, and altitude) over numerous data points to measure visits to real-world locations more accurately. Marketers can now be sure that the person they are targeting with their ads spent time inside a retail location, rather than just walked past.
But the best part for marketers is that we’re integrating this all directly into LiveRamp and Adsquare.
With Tamoco’s segments, marketers can accurately target consumers based on their behavior in the offline world. Tamoco offers hundreds of unique audiences, based on a detailed analysis of visits to real-world locations and points of interest. These segments run across multiple industries, from retail stores to restaurants, entertainment venues, and travel locations.
