6. Improving on the Status Quo Simulmedia uses set-top box data to understand program preferences and modes of viewing at the level of the individual viewer. The improvement in granularity gives Simulmedia insight to the minimum motivational frequency required to inspire each viewer to tune-in. The Program is the most granular unit of measure supported by panel-based media planning solutions. Networks can’t know which part of a program’s audience is more receptive to their programming or how reach them. Yesterday Tomorrow Program Panel-based Data Person Set-Top Box Data Blind to Results ROI & Accountability Networks rely on data from panel-based audience measurement solutions to plan promotion campaigns. Smaller sample sizes inherent to panel-based solutions limit precision and increase error in planning decisions. Networks lack basic information on the effectiveness and performance of their promotional media buying. The absence of results reporting prevents network marketers from getting smarter for their next promotion campaign. Simulmedia unlocks the value of set-top box data for improving the effectiveness of promotion campaigns. Massive sample sizes inherent to set-top box data support precision unimaginable to users of panel-based audience measurement services. Simulmedia measures promotion spot exposure and promoted program tune-in and publishes TuneIntelligence Reports proving the effectiveness of promotions.

Notes de l'éditeur
In the 1990s, spurred by the satellite systems touting their expansive channel line-ups, cable systems invested heavily to convert their footprints from analog to digital. The end result: near ubiquitous penetration of measurement-compatible client-side technology – the set-top boxes. To digital media veterans like Simulmedia, it looks a lot like the internet.
