Other Mobile Media Planning Tools?
In 2008, Millennial Media released a mobile audience-building tool. The Web-based solution combines multiple data sources to provide an actionable, targetable media plan based on audience composition, composition index, available impressions, and potential reach by site, device and carrier for any defined target audience.
Also in 2008, Nielsen Media Research introduced a platform that media planners can use to mine audience research data. Clear Decisions, which took two years and $3.5 million to develop, was in some ways conceived from the inadequacies of Nielsen’s Interactive Market Systems (IMS). Nielsen analyzed the behavior of 85 percent of its customer base to determine how they used IMS, ultimately developing Clear Decisions out of those findings.
Clear Decisions enables users to locate, compile and analyze data across media more efficiently. It is also mobile-accessible. Nielsen clients may access it at no charge.
