SAN MATEO, CA--(Marketwired - Oct 13, 2015) - EverString, a leading provider of predictive analytics for sales and marketing, today announced the release of EverString Predictive Ad Targeting, the only B2B ad targeting solution that is both account-based and fully integrated with predictive scoring and predictive demand generation in a unified platform. Using artificial intelligence and machine learning to optimize audience selection, EverString enables easy and accurate targeting of the right prospects at the right time to maximize impressions and conversions. The EverString Decision Platform gives marketers the competitive advantage of predictive marketing across the entire customer journey, from identifying new prospects to converting leads into paying customers. "It's exciting to see EverString expand its offering from data collection and predictive marketing into the world of ad targeting," said David Raab, industry analyst and principal of Raab Associates Inc. "They are building the foundations for broader application of machine intelligence throughout the marketing process, addressing critical bottlenecks that now prevent marketers from making full use of today's technology for information gathering, personalization and a truly integrated customer experience." Many marketing technology products focus only on siloed views of customer interaction, resulting in disjointed marketing operations and inconsistent engagement with customers. EverString is unique, as it provides a comprehensive, data-driven decision platform that enables marketers to extract the value of big data technologies without the complexity. This helps B2B companies engage with the highest-potential prospects at every point in the marketing funnel. Delivered as a SaaS intelligence layer, the EverString Decision Platform collects customer data based on over 20,000 buyer signals, then leverages data science and artificial intelligence to define each customer's ideal customer profile. This audience selection capability is then integrated into each stage of the sales and marketing process to deliver Predictive Demand Generation, Predictive Scoring and now, Predictive Ad Targeting. The power of data science and Apache Hadoop in the hands of any B2B marketer While many companies struggle to stand up and manage their own Hadoop instances, and have yet to convert big data into value for their business units, EverString provides the value of big data and data science as a service so that organizations can realize value in a matter of days, without hassle. Built on Hadoop and other advanced big data technologies, EverString abstracts away the complexity so that any company can experience the significant benefits of data science applied to their marketing and sales efforts.
