Three Powerful Optimizations in One Tool

Variables can include audience demographics, social media, media engagements, census data, lifestyles, psychographics, media consumption, and channels. As well as a company’s own internal CRM and transactional data. 
• Econometric models are statistical tools used to identify complex interactions between different factors that influence potential demand for a product or category. These interactions are factors that can positively or negatively influence demand, also known as demand coefficients.
