Challenges
Targeting Complexity
Reaching highly specific HCP audiences across diverse specialties while maintaining relevance.
User Sensitivity
Delivering non-intrusive ads in a secure, professional environment.
Reporting Limitations
Generating comprehensive reports required manual integration of event logs into an external data lake.
Outdated Tools
Their previous hard-coded ad system was rigid and limited scalability, making campaign management time-consuming and inefficient.
"Switching to AdButler has brought us into the modern ad-serving landscape, allowing for seamless management of multiple campaigns."
How AdButler Solved These Challenges
Precision Ad Targeting for HCPs
AdButler enabled the platform to use unique identifiers to match users with target lists effectively, allowing hyper-targeted campaigns. This flexibility ensured the delivery of relevant ads to HCPs across different medical specialties.
"AdButler's segmentation capabilities completely redefined our targeting approach. It gave us the precision we needed to serve our niche audience."
Enhanced Click-Through Rates
With optimized ad placements and precise targeting, the network achieved a remarkable 2.18% CTR—well above the healthcare industry average of 0.4%-0.8%.
Streamlined Reporting and API Integration
Integrating event logs into the platform's data lake enabled custom, client-specific reports. Planned Q1 enhancements, such as storing target lists natively within AdButler, promise to simplify workflows further.
"While reporting capabilities in the frontend software package are currently limited, the ability to integrate event logs into our data lake has allowed us to create customized reports tailored to client needs. The upcoming feature to store target lists directly in AdButler is expected to reduce reliance on custom code, streamline workflows, and enhance ad targeting efficiency."
