Impressions Are the Currency of Choice

Impressions-Based Buying gives advertisers a more thorough, detailed view of audiences, for smarter and cost-effective media planning and buying.

Television viewing has become fragmented. Along with traditional or linear TV, technology has provided viewers with the convenience of time-shifted and streaming TV content available on laptops, tablets, and smartphones. As a result, accurately targeting specific audiences has become more difficult, and rating points have become less effective at measuring the success of a campaign or providing future insights.

That’s where Impressions-Based Buying comes in. Impressions-Based Buying gives advertisers a more thorough, detailed view of audiences, for smarter and cost-effective media planning and buying. It also allows for better audience estimates and faster, more accurate post-performance that reflects how viewers are watching.
