Vicinity. Now pinpointing your audience

Vicinity uses its location intelligence and 1st party user data to better understand users based on both online browsing behaviour and real world store (and point of interest) visits. First party location data (in addition to users demographics) tells us whether an individual is in the market for a vehicle or interested in fashion and so on.

“It hasn't been easy building what is essentially a DMP and integrating pinpoint retargeting and targeting capabilities into our ad server based on audience segmentation and persona generation,” notes Vicinity CEO, Daryl van Arkel.

“The development we have undertaken further underscores the innovation, grit, determination and world class solutions we as South African companies can build. I am proud of the hours and hours of their own time our dev team have thrown at this to ensure it sees the light of day and allows us to not only lead in real time location targeting but also compete in the key area of Audience targeting the market requires. We are very excited to bring these innovative features to market along with all the other market leading innovations we have released to date.”
