Deliver the experiences customers deserve This guide provides a comprehensive list and explanation of all the products and services Experian offers that you can use to help your clients deliver the experiences their customers deserve.
The hardest part of marketing is truly understanding the customer. Only when a marketer has a clear and thorough understanding of their customers are they able to deliver the experiences that make the difference.
By treating every customer as an individual it’s possible to establish 1-2-1 relationships and really connect.
Experian helps brands combine people-based marketing with data-informed decision making to build this understanding and engage with customers on their terms.

Bid EnrichmentSafely activating Experian data in the programmatic ecosystem
Experian has developed a proprietary method of linking its data assets to digital identifiers – including cookies and device IDs – with a high degree of confidence, allowing brands to target Experian audiences online.
What makes Bid Enrichment different is the way in which this data is activated. Experian data is appended in the heart of the ad exchange itself, enriching each bid individually, and issuing a new bid request for the combination of media and data. This crucial difference ensures that Experian’s data is priced dynamically, in much the same way as the impression itself is priced dynamically. This ensures that data can be applied to even the most price-sensitive campaigns: where traditionally data might cost many times more than the media itself, now buyers are able to bid for an enriched impression, with data costs determined by the auction process in much the same way as media costs would be.

On-site enrichmentBringing Experian’s data and insight to digital destinations
Experian’s on-boarded data assets – linked to over 90 million cookies and 30 million device IDs in the UK alone – can add value to any consumer engagement. Traditionally, marketers have focused on using data in an advertising context, particularly when determining to whom they should show a message. Increasingly, data is being used on sites and in apps to enrich and personalise the consumer experience throughout the entire journey.
On-site enrichment is Experian’s method for bringing data and insight to your digital destinations. Experian’s rich data sets can be applied to every consumer engagement with your site, whether or not you’ve engaged with them before. Experian can also surface the links between different devices that engage with a site, helping brands to get a better understanding of their consumer journey and where else they might be able to influence them.
