TV advertisers today are required to make critical data-driven decisions to plan their media investments and make near real-time changes to in-flight campaigns. Until now, there has never been a way to leverage actionable data to measure the effectiveness of creative and spending decisions on consumer purchase intent with the aim of optimizing campaigns and media. Without this behavioral and predictive data, advertisers can waste time and money on ineffective creative or misdirected spend and struggle to quantify the impact of their investments.

EDO’s Ad EnGage brings the power of digital measurement to TV by giving advertisers and networks unprecedented access to accurate, comprehensive ad occurrence and effectiveness data to quickly generate powerful intelligence and custom insights for their brands and full competitive sets. By pairing ad occurrence data with time-matched consumer online search behavior, Ad EnGage gives advertisers and networks a quantifiable and predictive measure to learn from what others have done, effectively plan and optimize media and creative investments, and measure campaign efficacy in real-time.

“In this day and age, we’re expected to make real-time and precise decisions to successfully deliver against our media investments,” said Kristi Lind, EVP and Chief Client Officer at Canvas Worldwide. “However, until now, the granular and predictive data needed hasn’t been available for TV. EDO’s Ad EnGage is uniquely powerful in helping us generate greater value from our creative efforts and media investments and allows us to do so in a nimble way.”

Ad EnGage Search Engagement (SE) offers real-time insights into consumer engagement for more effective TV advertising.

“Advertisers and networks need to generate immediate and powerful intelligence on their own efforts and their competitors’,” says Kevin Krim, President and CEO of EDO. “They are also under immense pressure to find cost savings without sacrificing performance. With the launch of Ad EnGage, EDO’s clients now have this critical predictive data at their fingertips in order to make better business decisions.”
