What is Audience?
Audience offers two methods to help you connect with your target consumers.
1. Identify. Not sure which groups or types your target consumers fall into? Not a problem. Audience provides a wide range of variables such as age, income, marital status and more to select from to find the segments that your business is targeting. The Audience platform also provides access to multiple segmentation products such as Mosaic so give Experian a call to find out more about data asset availability by country.
2. Grow. If you already know which segments work best for you and want to broaden your customer base then Audience helps you discover other groups and types which are alike in various ways such as income, internet usage or property type.
Whether you choose to find your target segments via Identify or Grow, Audience provides a view of the number of individuals and households matching your segmentation selection together with the contactable universe via email, online digital display advertising or offline direct mail.
What is Segmentation?
Segmentation is dividing your database into groups which are defined by individual characteristics. It could be as simple as separating your male and female customers or it can be by something more complex. Grouping different people into different segments gives you greater flexibility with your marketing, allowing you to talk with each person in an engaging and relevant way.
Why segment?
If you can talk to someone about what they are really interested in, they’re much more likely to engage with you. Do the opposite – by talking to the wrong person about the wrong things – and you will irritate people and perhaps drive them away. By segmenting people according to their characteristics and behaviour, you can talk confidently with everyone about the things that matter to them, by the most relevant channel.
