Audience

Are you marketing to the most valuable audiences?

Anyone can target and segment audiences—marketers
have been doing it for decades. But, finding and knowing
the most valuable people isn’t as easy.

To find the most valuable audiences and people, you have to understand your individual customer—their behaviors and passions. This takes data, better data—more resilient data. It also takes the rigor and tools to analyze the data to get a true view of consumers.

Know your audience with better data

The data we use to understand your audience starts with the most resilient data around. Most people only have one place they call home and this is what our data stack is built on.

Quad is the #1 direct mail provider in the country — linking Rise to a proprietary and resilient data set that reaches 97% of the U.S. adult population. We couple those 250M consumers with over 20K data and contextual insights that can be activated across all media touchpoints.

Adding household interests and passions to more widely used standard data, takes you beyond the game of traditional targeting to actually knowing consumers.
