If you are looking to transfer data from Outbrain to Snowflake quickly, there is an easy solution for this data transfer using a powerful ETL tool: Daton.

The journey of the modern-day consumer is not linear. They use multiple devices like desktops, laptops, and mobile phones to access the internet and visit various websites, review platforms, blogs, and social media platforms to research a particular product before purchasing it. Hence, to effectively target users, businesses need to rely on sophisticated marketing tools like Outbrain, which uses a combination of email, SMS, search engine ads, and remarketing to target potential customers effectively. Behavioral patterns of users coming from marketing platforms like Ad impressions, CTRs, conversion rates, and search history provide great insights into product demand trends.

Daton is a highly automated data pipeline that integrates with various sources that your company may be using. It can automatically fetch data into a data warehouse like Snowflake without any coding, enabling the creation of reports for quick and easy data analysis for better optimized online marketing campaigns.

 

Why integrate Outbrain to Snowflake?

When it comes to advertising on the internet using platforms like Outbrain, marketers’ greatest obstacle is that much money is wasted on redundant advertisements. More budget may have been allocated on a less popular product ad leading to lesser ROIs; not factoring in customer feedback while building ad strategy might lead to improper audience targeting. You need more personalized ad creation like showing advertisements to people who have done some activity. Events can be searching your product or reading feedbacks of the product, searching competitor products, clicking on the different call to action buttons or adding a particular product to their cart or wishlist on their website or mobile device.

The more data you can collect and use from different sources into Outbrain, the more optimized your ad delivery. All these data cannot be natively transmitted to Outbrain. Collect relevant data and analyze correctly in a data warehouse like Snowflake before using the relevant information to run ad campaigns on Outbrain. This process takes a lot of time and effort to execute manually, leading to a loss of potential revenue.
