Tip

There’s no need for you to produce multiple ad creatives for each audience message. Once you have your target audience of accounts, simply choose the different type of personalization that works best for your use case. Demandbase let’s you personalize the text, background image, and call to action (CTA).

Steps

1. Identify Your Target Companies

The first step in any Demandbase Advertising campaign is to develop your of target accounts from CRM records or your marketing databases, by working with Sales to determine their most valuable accounts, or by using firmographic attributes like industry, revenue, employees, location, technology.

2. Choose an Attribute to Personalize

  • The key to personalized ad creative is deciding on a company attribute, or firmographic, to leverage.
  • The copy in your ad creative will be personalized to display to a specific industry or company.
  • Demandbase offers 45+ detailed company attributes and any of them can be used for ad personalization.

3. Submit your Ad Creative Files

  • Be sure to follow the ad creative specs located here.
  • Send your source files to your Demandbase CSM for review and building of personalization by our creative team.
  • Using the attribute you determine in Step 2, our creative services team designs and builds ad units made to dynamically personalize to your target companies. We can insert the attribute within the copy, change parts of the messaging, or swap images or graphic elements. In all engagements, we follow design and advertising best practices.
  • Whenever company name is being used as the personalized attribute we take every precaution to avoid the appearance that the targeted company is an endorser or co-sponsor for the advertiser. In most cases we use the company name as a way to direct the message to the visitor, as a salutation.
  • Your creative will be ready for review and approval within 3 business days.

4. Serve Ads only to Target Companies, Across the Web

  • With your ad creative built and ready to be personalized, we launch your campaign and serve ad units only to the target companies on your list (from Step 1).
