Worthington, OH – 3/13/2017
As advertisers continue to struggle with disruption in the media world, including a decline in the use of traditional media, fake news, and bot fraud, Prosper Insights & Analytics™, a leading provider of business intelligence solutions, has released the Media Behaviors & Influence Study™ (MBI) for 2017. The data includes the responses of over 16,000 respondents and can be used to enlighten marketers by providing a unique consumer dimension. The MBI contains real consumers’ media consumption, including which media influences them to purchase, personality traits, and purchase intentions, and can be integrated with big data initiatives to enhance models to better target consumers.
“As marketers and media grapple with questionable metrics, digital fraud, and a decline in traditional medias’ audience delivery, the MBI provides an anecdote for media waste and improved ROI through unique consumption insights, including which best influence consumers to buy,” said Gary Drenik, CEO of Prosper Insights & Analytics. “Marketing firms, CPG’s, retailers, digital database platforms, and media companies have utilized the MBI to either generate millions of dollars of new revenues, improve targeting models, or eliminate ad waste to increase ROI.”
The MBI is a unique tool that goes beyond traditional segments and measurements to provide more effective allocation models based upon how well media influences purchases, in turn improving marketing ROI. It can be segmented by a myriad of ways including specific retailer shoppers, competitors’ customers, Amazon Prime members, generations, demographics, and neuroscience segments such as impulsive consumers or those who plan tasks carefully and more.
