4C,
a global data science and marketing technology company, and IRI®,
a global leader in innovative solutions and services for consumer,
retail, and media companies, announced today that they are expanding
their relationship. As a result of this collaboration, advertisers can
now better target their cross-channel video planning and buying by
leveraging IRI purchase-based data via the Audience Hub within Scope
by 4C™.
IRI’s consumer purchase data allows advertisers to combine insights
about past purchases, specific brands and products to identify prospects
and conquests as well as avenues for growing loyalty. Marketers using
Scope can deploy this data across a variety of video planning and buying
use cases, including audience-based linear TV planning and programmatic
scatter buying, as well as OTT buying across such providers as Hulu,
SlingTV and DirectTV Now.
“While the traditional narrative says that consumer attention is more
fragmented than ever, this is actually an incredible opportunity for
brands to tell a more comprehensive story to the same consumer across
the various media channels they consume,” says Nishat Mehta, president
of the Media Center of Excellence for IRI. “Our relationship with 4C
enables advertisers to leverage video as an important component of their
overall story and deliver an improved consumer experience.”
Scope by 4C is a unified platform that empowers brands to discover
audience insights, execute campaigns across screens, and analyze
performance in a single, self-service tool. The platform was designed to
help marketers achieve cross-channel video success with real-time
optimization and measurement against business outcomes.
“Our relationship with IRI is an exciting next step in the evolution of
TV into a performance-driven medium that operates in ways we’ve come to
expect of digital,” said Lance Neuhauser, CEO of 4C. “As content and
commerce become more intertwined, it’s critical that we enable
advertisers to activate purchase-based data for their cross-channel
video strategies.”
