Advanced Data Suite

We now have over 24m registered users which advertisers are able to target demographically using this first party data.

Sub Demographic audiences:

INTEREST-BASED TARGETING
We also enable advertisers to target our viewers based on their likes and interests. We do this using the Dynata panel of 250k users who are regularly surveyed before our team of data scientists use lookalike modelling to build segments across our 24m registered users.
THERE ARE 20 SEGMENTS TO CHOOSE FROM:

BRANDM4TCH
Brandmatch is our new ‘Bring Your Own Data’ product which enables advertisers for the first time to use their own 1st party customer data to identify and match individuals within our 24m Channel 4 users. The product is powered by two technical integrations:
1. Infosum act as our clean room where the data match takes place in a cookieless environment.
2. Mediarithmics is our advanced data platform, which is used to add modelling to the matched segments in order to add scale.
The data match process is extremely quick (just mins) with no data being shared with Channel 4,meaning there is no chance of data leakage.
Use Cases:
1. Reach lapsed customers. Customers that haven’t engaged for 6 months could be targeted with specific messaging.
2. Upselling products. Customers of product A targeted with product B.
3. Reach new customers: Reach prospective customers by removing existing customers.
APPROVED
In addition to our first party data segments we offer advertisers the opportunity to buy pre-defined data segments from approved data vendors. We have developed an integration with Acxiom which offers advertisers over 130 audiences segments covering areas such as hobbies, travel, finance, property, media consumption and many more.
Key Segments: Parents of Children aged 0-4 years old, Motorists, Quality Newspaper Readers, Interested in Theatre, Household interest in Pets, USA Travellers, Homeowners
CHANNEL 4 STREAMING BESPOKE
Enables advertisers to layer Channel 4 data sets on top of each other to build bespoke segments specific for advertiser’s campaign objectives. An example of this might be for a technology business to only target
individuals that have viewed on mobile devices or a take away business who’d like to target people who view drama on connected TV’s after 8pm.
Segmentation includes time of day, content viewed, demographic, location, interest or device.

Over the last few months we've been busy working with a number of launch partners to run the first campaigns and with MTM to test the product’s effectiveness.
The first official results are in, and they’re extremely impressive - so we decided to reveal them in this special webinar broadcast.
In it, we heard from the brand partners themselves, the research experts MTM and our tech partners InfoSum and Mediarithmics!
