It’s important to know that audience numbers in Squeezely are never exactly the same as the end result in Google and Facebook. This has a couple of reasons:
FB / Google must be able to link eventdata to a profle in their system so they can serve ads.
You can only send event to FB / Google when the connection is established, while Squeezely already has eventdata from the past.
You have a created a complicated audience, which result into a directly Je hebt een complexere audience opgesteld, waardoor je niet van de rechtstreekse eventdata gebruik kan maken.
It’s also important to keep in mind that there is a difference between event based audiences and profile based audiences. Profile based audiences for example, where we have the rule to export to Facebook, can’t take the rule directly. That means that everyone that was already in that audience has to visit the website once again. There is no retention and we depend on our generated SqueezelyAudience event.
The first rule is something that depends entirely on the external platforms and is usually the reason why one of the parties has a larger number even though it’s an identical audience. The remaining two reasons are described in a few example scenario’s below:
Audience type | Squeezely rules | Google rule | Retroactive data |
---|---|---|---|
ID: 1 - Event audience | AddToCart event in past 30 days | Event = AddToCart | Yes, automatically |
ID: 2 - Event audience | Purchase event in past 30 days | Event = Purchase | Yes, automatically |
ID: 3 - Segmented audience | Audience 1 AND Audience 2 | Audience_ID = 3 | Yes, manually |
ID: 4 - Profile audience | Gender is male | Audience_ID = 4 | No |
