This creates a change in the needs of the consumer and consequently, creates new opportunities for you as a business to respond to.<\/p>\n High or low risk? PPC & Display advertising vs. Performance Based Advertising PPC and display advertising are based on the interest of consumers. These marketing channels trigger a consumer to click on an ad that is targeted at them, based on demographics, interests and previous browser activities. The current issue with these kinds of marketing channels is that, due to a decrease in inventory, you will be paying for consumer activities without being able to complete the actual sale. This makes PPC and Display advertising a high-risk investment as you are paying to create a need or interest that you cannot fulfil.<\/p>\n In contrary to PPC and display Campaigns, Performance Based Marketing is based on the actual performance that takes place, making it a low-risk way to go. Due to to the No Cure, No Pay policy you only spend on advertising if an actual transaction takes place. If a product is sold out or unavailable, this will not have any financial consequences for you.<\/p>\n An added bonus possibility of Performance Based Marketing in these uncertain times is TradeTracker\u2019s Real Attribution feature.
