“This acquisition of assets is just one of many investments Market Track is making to expand our global footprint and provide clients with actionable market intelligence that translates into tangible business results,” said Dennis Moore, CEO of Market Track. “We look forward to supporting our clients’ evolving needs across campaign optimization, competitive intelligence and cross media strategy. We have a long-standing relationship with Nielsen, and we look forward to a seamless transfer of services.”
In addition to AIS’ robust reporting capabilities, these solutions enable clients’ media research, media planning and buying, new business development and account management teams to monitor and analyze advertising creatives and spend data across key media types. When coupled with Market Track’s broad suite of competitive intelligence solutions, clients will have access to an unparalleled 360 degree view across advertising, promotions and eCommerce.
