Crimtan integrates with global data provider, ShareThis

New deal brings real-time social data to its dynamic marketing platform

London, 19 September 2016: Crimtan, the dynamic marketing company specialising in data-driven digital advertising, has signed a partnership deal with ShareThis, a global data provider, to integrate its social sharing data into Crimtan’s marketing platform offering ‘ShareThis’ social segments.

This brings significant benefits to advertisers’ online branding campaigns as it allows brands to build custom segments that include brand champions and their social circle of like-minded individuals. These web users actively share their passion and interest by searching and sharing content about a specific brand.

To date, brands using ShareThis data through the Crimtan platform have seen a 60% increase in video view-through rate over contextual targeting, and engagement rates 58% higher than standard audience targeting sets.

Kurt Abrahamson, CEO of ShareThis, said: “It’s great that brands using the Crimtan Marketing Platform have already seen tremendous value in ShareThis data. A share captures people’s current passions and desires and is a meaningful signal of consumer behaviour. Having the ability to identify users’ current interests and purchasing desires will help Crimtan run even more effective branding and prospecting campaigns.”

Paul Goad, Crimtan Founder, added: “The integration of social data is particularly important to a dynamic marketing strategy as a person’s interests and passions are constantly changing. Dynamic social data provides a recent and better-defined view of people’s true interests at any moment in time and Crimtan will use ShareThis’ social data to enhance our user profiles by overlaying it with other data to improve targeting and optimisation for our clients.”
