As consumers increasingly engage with brands across multiple channels and devices, advertisers are seeking new ways to create a cohesive message that resonates with their target audience. Enter omnichannel marketing, a powerful approach that allows businesses to reach their target audience across multiple platforms and devices. It emphasizes delivering a consistent message to customers, regardless of the channels they use to interact with a brand.

So why is omnichannel marketing important? First and foremost, customers are increasingly using multiple devices throughout the course of their day. When brands engage with these customers through these devices, they expect a seamless experience across all of them. This has been shown to increase customer loyalty, whereas a poor experience can lead to customers being lost to competitors who offer a more cohesive brand experience. On top of that, omnichannel marketing allows businesses to leverage data more effectively than ever, gaining valuable insights into consumer behavior and preferences that can inform future marketing strategies. When businesses have access to the right data, they can deliver a more personalized and relevant experience to their customers, resulting in increased engagement and brand loyalty.

FieldTest offers an all-in-one omnichannel platform that includes ad buying capabilities across multiple channels so you can effectively reach your target audience and build this cohesive, cross-channel experience they expect. Each channel has its unique benefits, and deciding which channels to use will vary depending on your needs and your customers’ profile. To help you better understand just what each channel is and how you can best put them to use with FieldTest, let’s go through each of the channels we offer and what they are best used for:

3: Speak to your customers where they’re listening closest with Digital Audio Ads

FieldTest Digital audio advertising lets brands like your buy ads on any and all of these popular digital audio services, giving you a unique opportunity to connect with your audience in the places where they are listening the closest.

The highly personal and intimate nature of streaming audio offers Audio advertising one of its most potent benefits. Unlike other forms of advertising, audio ads can be delivered directly to a listener's ear, creating a one-on-one connection between the brand and the listener. This makes audio ads a powerful tool for building brand awareness, increasing brand loyalty, and driving sales.

This isn’t just speculation! A recent study by Nielsen found that audio ads are one of the most memorable form of advertising, with 81% of listeners recalling an audio ad they heard in the past month. Additionally, audio ads have been shown to have a high level of engagement, with listeners staying tuned in for an average of 30 seconds or more. This high level of engagement translates into increased brand awareness and can even drive sales. In fact, a study by Edison Research found that 65% of listeners have taken action after hearing an audio ad, such as researching a product or making a purchase.

Digital audio advertising is a powerful tool in any omnichannel campaign. From increased brand awareness and engagement to driving sales and conversions, the benefits of incorporating digital audio advertising into an omnichannel marketing strategy are clear.

But good ad campaigns don’t only build relationships with customers in their intimate personal spaces, sometimes you have to target them in places that are a bit more public..
