Times Internet’s smart marketing platform, Colombia, announced the launch of ‘Custom Profiles’. It is a new product that allows marketers to re-engage their own audiences and match with over 125 million customers on the Colombia Audience Network (CAN), the premium content network. Custom Profiles can be leveraged across leading Indian media properties in news, lifestyle, business, sports, music, video and more.
Custom Profiles allows marketers to re-engage their users via content, native and video advertising. Whether it is an FMCG brand wanting recall from prior customers, or a travel app that wants existing dormant users to try a new feature, Custom Profiles helps marketers communicate effectively and efficiently. CAN’s exclusive reach across the largest digital media destinations in India, powered by Colombia’s rich data, best-in-class ad technology, superior optimisation and intelligence on campaigns ensures marketers can drive high ROI and impact.
“We have piloted Custom Profiles and early results from our clients have been promising. Some clients have been able to re-engage 30% of their customers on our network, while seeing an increase in transactions of up to 300%. Custom Profiles is helping marketers drive better results in a brand safe trusted environment,” said Gulshan Verma, Chief Revenue Officer, Times Internet.
“We built Custom Profiles for high optimisation and real ROI on spending. Marketers can target audiences with relevant content on leading Indian media destinations, by leveraging our rich proprietary interest graph as well as their own data sets for optimal targeting,” said Swapnil Shrivastav, Chief Technical Officer, Colombia, Times Internet.
CAN is the exclusive vehicle for targeted advertising across leading destinations such as The Times of India, The Economic Times, Cricbuzz, Gaana, Indiatimes and more. Using CAN, advertisers can reach over 250 million users every month, while leveraging the Colombia ad-tech stack for precise measurement, targeting, and optimisation, to deliver the highest ROI.
