IBM will combine its 'Deep Analytics' with Facebook's anonymized and aggregate audience data. It will give marketers an insightful idea about their target audiences and the nature of ads to be served. For an instance, a shoe retailer can find jogging freaks using Facebook data and introduce them superb deals on jogging shoes and other jogging accessories.
In the joint statement, Blake Chandlee, vice president of partnerships for Facebook said :
Our partnership with IBM will help top brands achieve personalization at scale by using IBM's marketing cloud to find and engage their target audiences on Facebook, as well as solve their vexing challenges by consulting with IBM Commerce ThinkLab.
