Hibu Inc., a provider of digital marketing solutions to small- and medium-sized businesses across the United States, has announced that Amazon Ads Sponsored Display is now available as part of Hibu’s digital marketing solutions.

Hibu’s proprietary technology platform integrates digital marketing services and advertising channels, leveraging AI and machine learning, performance optimization, and real-time notification features to create synchronized digital marketing programs that help clients drive leads, manage those leads, and convert them into customers.

Sponsored Display leverages Amazon Ads audience insights built from shopping and streaming signals, advanced AI, and machine learning technology to engage audiences across Amazon, Twitch, and thousands of apps and websites.

Amazon Ads Sponsored Display is available to businesses both on Amazon and ones not selling on Amazon, including the vast majority of local businesses that Hibu specializes in helping, such as home services contractors, auto repair, consumer services, and travel and hospitality.

“We saw the potential for bringing these rich audience capabilities to the tens of thousands of SMBs we partner with across the US.,” said Nick Hopkins, Hibu’s vice president of product strategy and development. “Our early testing has validated our initial optimism, and we’re thrilled to now make Sponsored Display available to all our eligible Hibu Solution clients.”
