Empowering Small Businesses with Accurate, Actionable First-Party Data

Small businesses are the backbone of the American economy, making up 99.9% of all businesses in the U.S. and totaling over 32.5 million. However, they often face significant challenges when it comes to advertising—like limited budgets, rising competition, and the need to stand out in a crowded market.

With the right strategies and tools, these challenges become opportunities for growth. By focusing on first-party data, you can create advertising campaigns that speak directly to real, verified people in your target audience

The Role of Data in Advertising Success

Data is at the heart of modern advertising. It helps small businesses make informed decisions and optimize campaigns for better results. By understanding customer behavior, preferences, and trends, you can create ads that truly connect. With accurate first-party data, you can stop guessing and start building strategies that drive better outcomes.

What is First-Party Data?

First-party data is the information you collect directly from your customers—through website interactions, app usage, or email sign-ups. It’s more reliable than third-party data, which can be outdated or inaccurate.

For small businesses, first-party data is invaluable. It gives you direct insight into your audience, allowing you to create personalized marketing campaigns that cater to their preferences. This improves customer experience and drives conversions.

Data has become the backbone of modern advertising. It allows small businesses to make informed decisions and optimize campaigns for better results. By understanding customer behavior, preferences, and trends, businesses can create targeted ads that resonate. Accurate, first-party data takes the guesswork out of advertising, leading to more effective strategies and higher ROI.

Proven Success: A Restaurant’s Path to Sold Out Inventory

Overview: A quick-service restaurant was launching two new locations in Philadelphia and Dallas. They needed help increasing in-store traffic, boosting online sales, and raising overall brand awareness.

Approach: BRIDGE targeted an audience of 16,000 self-identified foodies located in key ZIP codes across Philadelphia and Dallas. The campaign was deployed across multiple channels, including TikTok, email, Facebook, Instagram, desktop display, and mobile display.

Results: While high engagement was recorded across social media, email, and display channels, TikTok drove the majority of sales. BRIDGE’s advanced POS matchback attribution linked 67,000 video views from TikTok to direct purchases. The campaign generated 71,000 impressions, reached 16,000 people, and resulted in a complete sell-out of the restaurant’s inventory.
