LinkedIn is now going to allow advertisers to target ads to employees of specific companies, under a new option called ‘Account Targeting’.

The feature will allow brands to upload lists of the companies they already work with, or would like to work with in the future. This data will then be cross-referenced, allowing marketers the ability to grab the attention of the most relevant decision makers.

With LinkedIn now having more than 414 million members worldwide, the platform is looking for ways to make it easier for advertisers to find the people that they want to attract, in the hope of sparking an interest from B2B marketers.

Canvas is a mobile ad platform that allows advertisers to create a ‘miniature version’ of their website within the Facebook app.

Sports Stadium will collate content from a variety of users, journalists and brands about a specific sporting event, offering huge potential for those brands that are big on reactive marketing.

We have delved deeper into the importance of reactive marketing in our latest whitepaper http://www.stickyeyes.com/intelligence/why-you-need-to-be-proactive-about-reactive-marketing/.

Changes to the way in which Google displays mobile apps in search results could make it easier for brands to get their mobile applications discovered.

Google will essentially start 'streaming' applications from the Google Play store to mobile users, meaning that they won't have to download an app to their device just to access the content.
