“The industry is ripe to move past traditional measurement models of age and gender to more data-driven, audience-based metrics,” said Beth Plummer, Spectrum Reach Senior Vice President and Chief Revenue Officer. “Spectrum Reach believes that diversity in currency is necessary, and Comscore provides the most reliable local viewership data. When customers want to buy specific audiences, not ratings, and get back-end attribution, the data has to be granular. Comscore has the most granular and stable data in local TV markets.”

Television currency is the means by which buyers and sellers of advertising inventory transact business. Through Comscore, they can quantify their multiscreen behavior and make business decisions using data-driven, audience-based impressions for television.

Strong Automotive Merchandising, a Spectrum Reach client who buys media on behalf of Tier 3 Automotive dealers nationwide, also has moved exclusively to buying on Comscore’s television currency in the Southeast region.

“We were pleased to work with our partners at Spectrum Reach and Comscore during this currency transition,” said John Paul Strong, Strong Automotive Merchandising Owner and Chief Executive Officer. “The stability and reliability of Comscore census-based measurement allows my clients the greatest opportunity for effective media investment.”
