REDWOOD CITY, CA--(Marketwired - Jul 16, 2014) - Rocket Fuel (
Previous approaches to ad personalization have relied on manual approaches and simple rules. With this new technology, Rocket Fuel brings the full power of its AI and data driven platform to drive new levels of performance. Bespoke machine-learning algorithms train on response data about which products and ad messages drive results, and adjust and optimize real-time media buying and product recommendation decisions.
Rocket Fuel Personalize highlights:
Prospecting and retargeting -- a dual capability that's unique to Rocket Fuel
Rocket Fuel Personalize uses consumer insights such as web browsing behavior, past purchases, and location to personalize advertising experiences. Personalize dynamically assembles creative elements such as the title, image, price, and call-to-action within the ad, as well as provides personalized product recommendations and advertising messages for the individual.
For prospecting specifically, Rocket Fuel employs act-alike modeling -- which goes beyond traditional lookalike systems -- to identify both past behaviors and predicted future actions most correlated to lift in ROI, and assembles a real-time ad for each person in a specific context even if he or she has never been to an advertiser's website.
Insights that inform business decisions
For advertisers that create thousands of ads and have huge product catalogs, having insights into top sellers, popularity, and highest level of engagement can help inform critical decision like inventory management, product promotions and revenue opportunities.
Full creative services
Rocket Fuel works with brands and agencies to develop custom brand-friendly templates that are seamlessly aligned with an advertiser's brand guidelines.
Performance uplift
