Be-Incremental

🎯 The Challenge

Be-Incremental, a performance marketing agency, faced a complex targeting puzzle: they needed to reach only highly qualified companies actively running paid advertising campaigns with sufficient budgets. The additional challenge was identifying the right decision-maker within these organizations—often individuals wearing multiple hats without clear titles like “Head of Paid Ads” or “Performance Marketing Manager.” Traditional targeting approaches wouldn’t work for this nuanced ICP.
