Neustar Helps Dish to Target TV Spots
Real-time data provider Neustar said it formed a partnership with Dish Media Sales to deliver and measure targeted advertising on television.
Dish is able to deliver specific commercials to specific viewers on a household basis in 8 million homes. Combined with Neustar’s ability to analyze and manage consumer data, a targeted approach allows advertisers to reduce wasted media spending, Neustar said.

Neustar can help Dish advertisers build addressable TV audiences based on first part customer data, a partner’s data or third-party data and deliver relevant messages to consumers.
"TV is going through a renaissance and promises to reinvent itself in a way that aligns with how consumers want to engage with brands,” said Steven Wolfe Pereira, chief marketing and communications officer of Neustar. “With the proliferation of media and the multi-screen behavior of consumers accelerating rapidly, marketers have the opportunity to transform how they use their valuable customer data. We are excited to partner with Dish, a pioneer in the TV industry, to let media buyers and sellers demonstrate the efficacy of TV media by hyper-targeting advertisements, and measuring results at a granular, addressable level.”
