About Retargeting & Remarketing
Retargeting and remarketing campaigns focus on reconnecting with users who have already interacted with your brand but haven't converted. These advertisements target warm audiences - site visitors, cart abandoners, video viewers, or past customers - with tailored messaging that addresses their specific position in the customer journey. The key is acknowledging their previous interaction while providing new incentives or information to complete the desired action. Successful retargeting ads use dynamic content, sequential messaging, and strategic frequency capping to stay relevant without becoming intrusive, ultimately recovering revenue that would otherwise be lost.
