Harness the power of weather-triggered advertising
IBM Watson Advertising Weather Targeting combines the power of weather’s ability to drive emotion and action with IBM’s AI capabilities to model and train algorithms. This turns the relationship between weather, location, and complex data sets like health conditions, product sales, and consumer activity into actionable, proven solutions, without relying on third-party cookie data.
Weather is a relative phenomenon. A forecast of 50 degrees in one city may not cause the same behavior as it would in another. Rather than relying solely on temperature or other basic factors, each Weather Targeting trigger uses machine learning to improve resonance by recognizing what the weather “feels like” and how consumers in that specific area are likely to react.
