Lookalike audiences are algorithmically generated groups that mirror the behaviors and traits of an advertiser’s existing high-performing customers. Platforms like Meta and LinkedIn use machine learning to identify new users similar to your seed audience. This strategy helps scale campaigns efficiently while maintaining targeting precision. It’s especially valuable for prospecting and growing customer acquisition pipelines in both B2C and B2B markets.
