“Record inflation is driving 1/3 of U.S. adults to find better paying jobs,” says SalesFuel CEO C. Lee Smith. “Tightening discretionary income also drives the new interest in free ad-supported streaming television (FAST) as part of OTT Media Streaming.”

This year, more than 1,355 customer groups are profiled with details on consumer behavior, purchase intent, digital+technology usage, health+wellness concerns, automotive preferences, leisure interests, dining habits, and more. Business development specialists use AudienceSCAN to identify new markets, new opportunities and new channel partners. Marketers can use AudienceSCAN data to reach the people who count (instead of counting the people they reach), while crafting a message with impact to those who are most likely to buy.

“Record inflation in the U.S. is fueling the Great Resignation as ONE-THIRD of U.S. adults are now in the market for better-paying job opportunities,” says SalesFuel CEO C. Lee Smith. “Tightening discretionary income is also likely to be a factor behind the new interest in free ad-supported streaming television (FAST) as part of the multitude of OTT streaming media options available to consumers,” he adds.
