Experian-Simmons Tool Gives 1 Customer View Across Media
Experian, Costa Mesa, CA, announced yesterday the availability of Addressable BehaviorGraphics, a system that combines client data with Experian household-level data and Simmons syndicated consumer information to form a single view of each customer across media.The tool is the first co-branded effort between the companies since Experian acquired consumer research firm Simmons in October.
The system is designed to synchronize campaigns across media channels by creating a single definition of a target audience to provide media-neutral targeting, campaign execution and measurement, Experian said. The definition is then applied across Experian's 110 million-household INSOURCE Consumer Database and media subscriber bases.
Addressable BehaviorGraphics also offers users a series of scored reports.
"Advertisers execute campaigns across multiple media channels, which are fragmented and have different types of audience definitions," Deborah Zuccarini, president of Experian Marketing Services, said in a statement. "In effect, each media channel historically required a different audience definition for execution."
