6 Best Consumer Behavior Data Providers 2024
The days of building static audience segments are over. To successfully and predictably reach your target consumers, you need to segment your audience dynamically. In other words, for the best targeting strategies, marketers need to understand more than just the demographics of their consumers. They need to know how consumers really behave in and move around online and offline environments.
For one thing, consumer behavioral insights are crucial to spending advertising budgets effectively. Marketing teams are seeing over and over that the best ads are served based on behavioral triggers. For example, if a consumer repeatedly visits a specific retail store in the physical world, it makes sense to send them related ads for that retailer on their digital devices. Demography alone won’t tell you when a consumer is likely to visit that store or use their device. And so it’s only when demographic data is enriched with behavioral data that marketers can get a 360 view of their consumer.
If you’re looking for the best sources of consumer behavior data, we’ve collected a list of the 6 top data providers on the market today.
