Remarketing or Retargeting: The better one for marketing!

“Nobody counts the number of ads you run; they remember the impression you make,” said Bill Bernbach.

Marketing has changed the entire scenario of selling products and services. Traditionally the barter system was the only medium to exchange goods. The possible reason for it to be successful might be just the urge of need and not be a better product or stand out in the marketplace. But with evolving times, competitions increased, the urge to earn more and better grew in people. Alike the situation from the buyer's side, people started looking to buy things that were quality enriched and standard looking. What actually happened was quality took over quantity. Back then there was a concept of remarketing and retargeting but not with the same product. It was a different product. But with digital marketing taking over the market, remarketing and retargeting is a common, in fact, useful strategy for digital marketers to increase or hike the conversion graph for brands. Let's first try to break down the concept of retargeting and remarketing. Retargeting is reminding or reaching out to people who might have visited your website but would have left without purchasing your product and remarketing is showing your ads or posters for them to see it again and buy again from you, as they know your product and brand and have higher chances to convert soon. Retargeting strategies use paid ads to reach an audience and remarketing uses email marketing campaigns to reach the audience. Also, both of these marketing strategies have a lot of similarities so to find out which one is better let's see some of the benefits of both strategies. 

Benefits of Remarketing: 

  • conversion from the same customer base multiple times
  • Brands can target specific audiences with specific messages. 
  • It is a beneficial strategy as it helps to bring visitors or audiences in the fold once again with a revised technique that might be appreciated by them. 

Benefits of Retargeting: 

  • Retargeting helps to generate more sales from the specified target audience
  • It helps reach prospective clients who might not have turned into customers due to various internal factors. 
  • Increases the ads insights as to the viewers or the visitor's number increases. 

These are some of the prominent or major benefits of retargeting and remarketing, these are some, there are many more. Both the strategies are suitable for different business kinds, sizes, and business nature. Different business styles require different business strategies. Let me tell you when and why you should choose retargeting

  • Go ahead with retargeting marketing strategy if you are willing to attract new customers.

 Let me also help you with the benefits of remarketing.                                                                                                                                             

  • If you have sold your products to a good amount of people earlier and feel to have loyal customers by converting the same people multiple times.                                                                                                                                                                               
  • Remarketing is a cost-effective option.                                                                                                                                                        
  • With an engaged list of people, remarketing hits the right people.
