Dynata Partners with Comcast Advertising to Strengthen Media Measurement

Marketers can now measure omni-channel advertising performance more accurately and effectively by combining Comcast's aggregate viewership data and Dynata's real-time survey data

DALLAS, Sept. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Dynata, the world's largest first-party data company for insights, activation and measurement, today announced a partnership to license and incorporate Comcast data into Dynata's advertising solutions product suite.

As a result, marketers for the first time can combine the accuracy and depth of Comcast's aggregate viewership data with Dynata's real-time survey data to assess the performance of their marketing efforts across broadcast, cable, streaming and addressable television. The joint solution provides a single-source, consented, panel-based TV measurement approach that improves marketers' decision-making around advertising performance, when comparing the relative strength of video assets' performance across all screens and devices. 

"We're very excited to support Dynata in their efforts to enable marketers to better measure the impact of their media investment and understand consumer perceptions, favorability and intent," said Larry Allen, VP & GM, Addressable Enablement, Comcast Advertising. "Our ecosystem is stronger when marketers and media owners have a clear understanding of how cross-media campaigns perform and how their brand messages impact consumers."

This partnership underscores both companies' desire to further improve and accelerate innovation in audience-based measurement across media channels, while empowering marketers to derive a much more confident picture of their cross-screen media investment.   

"Partnering with Comcast to enhance our advertising solutions product suite is a strategic investment in our commitment to deliver innovative products that help our customers make practical marketing decisions through the highest quality and scalable passive television viewership data sets," said Eric Sandberg, managing director of Dynata's global advertising solutions business. "This partnership reflects Dynata's commitment to delivering customer-centric solutions that enable more accurate insights, smarter strategies and more effective campaigns." 

Marketers and creative professionals build a narrative designed to be compelling, capture their audience's attention and leave a lasting impact. Dynata's increased coverage across Comcast's representative footprint enhances the stability and reliability of the inputs used to report efficacy quantified through changes in consumers' attitudes toward the advertiser. The broader reach also helps portray a comprehensive story around which channels are most appropriate and how to better personalize the messaging deployment for the highest engagement and long-term impact.
