Roughly one-third of advertisers had their budgets cut in 2023, but the cost of ad inventory is up, and return on ad spend is less dependable amid a waffling economy, ad fatigue, and media fragmentation. Are you feeling the pinch yet? You’re under pressure to do more with less, the age-old struggle of every marketing department, but the odds are against you more than they’ve ever been. You need to build connections with consumers faster using more personalized ads, even though reaching them is more difficult and more expensive than it once was. There’s one way to accomplish this next-to-impossible task: audience intelligence.

Marketing departments and C-suites alike have been buzzing about artificial intelligence for months. What it means for content teams, when and how to invest in it appropriately, and if regulation is on the way have been among the top questions circulating through LinkedIn, closed-door meetings, and as break-room banter. But the real question is, what’s in it for you as a data-driven advertiser? AI is being lauded as the secret to success for lean teams with tight budgets and few resources, and AI-powered tools have been favorites for advertisers everywhere for many years already. Several of the tactics you employ in your campaigns lean on AI and machine learning to get you the results you depend on, but there’s certainly more potential for you to tap into if you want to maximize the value of AI innovations in your campaigns.

A recent study on consumer trust revealed a shocking misunderstanding. While 87% of executives think consumers have a high level of trust in their business, only about 30% of consumers agree. And when consumers lose trust in your company, they take their business elsewhere.

But without the right audience data informing your outreach, purpose-driven marketing can have the opposite effect.

No matter your marketing goal, data is the answer to achieving the best results.
