New York – Nov. 12, 2013 – Nielsen, a leading global provider of information and insights into what consumers watch and buy, today announced the launch of its new digital measurement service Nielsen Buyer Insights – Precision Marketing to enable the activation and measurement of online advertising campaigns based on what people buy. The solution expands on the foundational Nielsen Buyer Insights deliverable that brings ad effectiveness insights to TV advertising campaigns, launched in 2012. The Precision Marketing service is built by combining consumer online activity with actual online and offline purchase activity from anonymized, privacy-protected credit card data of the Nielsen panel.
To date, four leading digital advertising platforms have signed on to offer this insight to their clients and leverage the ability to deliver buyer segmented audiences, ranging from the category level to heavy buyers of a single merchant.
The new service will extend demographics in order to provide clients with superior insights. By including sales categories such as Retail, Travel, and Dining, as well as additional segments beyond Consumer Packaged Goods, companies will be offered heightened planning effectiveness. Sales-based segmentation will be enabled through the use of actual anonymized and aggregated credit card spend for consumers.

The industry is eager for a tool that analyzes the effectiveness of a campaign on actual sales.”
