Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC) last month introduced a new solution designed to help advertisers identify and target their most valuable customer segments. The "High-Value Audiences" solution (currently in beta) allows users to create targeted audience lists without the need for coding expertise.
The High-Value Audiences solution is a user-friendly tool within AMC that empowers advertisers to:
Identify High-Value Customer Segments: Analyze customer data based on past spending behavior to identify groups with the highest purchasing power.
Refine Segmentation: Define specific parameters such as timeframe, product selection (ASINS), and new-to-brand status to tailor the analysis to specific marketing goals.
Visualize Results: Insights from the analysis are presented in interactive graphs and tables, allowing users to easily understand customer behavior patterns.
Take Action: Based on the analysis, users can select high-value customer segments and create targeted audience lists directly within the AMC interface. These audience lists can be used for various purposes, including building lookalike audiences or creating rule-based audiences for ad targeting on Amazon DSP.
Automate Audience Activation: Audiences created through the High-Value Audiences solution are automatically synced with advertisers' Amazon DSP accounts, streamlining the campaign setup process.
Benefits of the high-value audiences solution
According to Amazon, the High-Value Audiences solution offers several benefits for advertisers:
No-Code Experience: The solution features a user-friendly interface with point-and-click functionality and automated data visualization. This eliminates the need for advertisers to have SQL knowledge or advanced analytical skills.
Streamlined Workflow: The solution integrates clean room analytics, data visualization, and audience creation into a single workflow. This simplifies the process of identifying valuable customer segments and taking action based on the insights.
Faster Execution: The solution prioritizes common and effective audience segmentation use cases, allowing advertisers to quickly implement best practices.
Controlled Flexibility: While the solution offers pre-defined use cases, advertisers can still customize parameters within each case to maintain control over their audience segmentation strategy.
The introduction of the High-Value Audiences solution reflects a growing trend towards user-friendly marketing tools that empower business users without a technical background. By enabling code-free audience creation based on valuable customer insights, Amazon Marketing Cloud is potentially helping advertisers improve campaign targeting efficiency and maximize return on ad spend.
