How and where you spend your marketing dollars is transforming. For many, a big part of the spend used to be driven towards brand loyalists. Today, we see loyalist targeting shifting towards organic and more working dollars allocated towards acquiring new customers. Amidst these trends, technology, legislative and platform changes are leading brands to (re)discover interest based targeting in place of traditional demos.
