There is no secret recipe for choosing the right online advertising platform for your SaaS company, but it can pay off to do the little bit of research that it takes to find out which one fits your needs as far as SaaS ads go.

A best practice is to always have more than one advertising strategy on hand, ready to try at all times. This will help you find what works best for your SaaS company and decrease your reliance on specific ad channels. Ultimately it will boost your brand awareness with targeted shoppers and increase profit margins during the purchasing process.

Here are 5 lesser known platforms that you can advertise your SaaS company on that won’t break the bank like Facebook or Google ads might.

1. Adroll

For SaaS companies constantly working towards a bigger share of the market, Adroll serves as a powerful tool in SaaS ads to get ahead in your marketing campaign by matching your target audience with relevant advertising. The platform allows you to create and manage your own custom audience segments based on customer data, as well as run personalized retargeting campaigns that are more likely to result in conversions. Adroll specializes in retargeting your leads to bring in sales after the first click is abandoned.

2. Criteo

Criteo provides technologies that seamlessly integrate into e-commerce, retail and publishing platforms to increase revenue through personalized retargeting of shoppers based on their shopping behavior. Retailers and publishers can easily retarget shoppers who abandon their cart or visit a page but don’t convert.

SaaS companies can also use Criteo to personalize the shopping experience by building a custom audience based on their customers’ interests and behaviors, as well as create lookalike audiences from existing customer data.

It’s known as an online community where people can share, vote and comment on content.
