Following a successful belt buckle promotion, Trachte is moving into audio advertising via Spotify and shifting toward a regionally-tailored marketing approach. The account manager (Sebastian) met with the Trachte contact the day prior to this call and is coordinating next steps around both the ad launch and an upcoming in-person meeting on November 18.
Spotify's native targeting options are limited for a niche B2B audience like Trachte's. Available parameters are essentially:
Because these broad categories cannot reliably reach Trachte's specific customer base, the team decided that targeting a customer list is the most effective approach — reaching known contacts rather than relying on demographic approximations.
| Element | Detail |
|---|---|
| Platform | Spotify Ads |
| Ad Format | Audio |
| Targeting Method | Customer list upload |
| Status | Audio creative in production; list being assembled |
| Approval | Sales team has signed off |
Rather than applying a single marketing strategy across all territories, Trachte is moving toward region-specific support. The Trachte contact is meeting with individual regional sales teams to understand their specific needs and priorities.
Example: If the Northeast team identifies multi-unit promotions as a priority, marketing efforts for that region will be focused accordingly.
