We all know about cookies, especially since the EU’s rules forced all sites to display their cookie policy up front. Cookie-centric adverts which follow users right across the web are now prevalent but relatively unsophisticated. However, this kind of behavioural data can be used more intelligently to target users in a more nuanced way. Instead of just displaying the item they viewed on the original site, this type of targeted advertising is now developing to predict where each person is on their purchasing journey – providing smarter ads as a result. Soon we will see online ads better suited to the mindset of the target customer, based on their online behaviour.

Lifecycle data

The ‘long game’ is a very interesting one in the world of vk database psychographics. With so much information about target customers, it’s becoming increasingly possible to accurately predict the next phase of their life (going to university, buying their first car, getting their first job, getting engaged, buying a house, getting married, having their first child – you name it) and to market accordingly. This gives marketers the insight they need to offer the perfect product or service at the most promising time – and enjoy higher click throughs and conversions as a result.

All of this data is creating a much more complex, highly functional form of demographics but it still takes a great deal of skill and specialism to make it work in a marketing scenario. However, in time, psychographics are set to become the only way to accurately define and advertise to your market – and the results promise to be outstanding.
