The new offering lets advertisers find and reach qualified automotive consumers and connect the outcome of advertising campaigns to business results, including verified new vehicle sales. Automotive advertisers can gain access to Polk Automotive Solutions audience segments and advanced performance insights, including number of sales, make and model, price, and vehicle type to measure ROI for their streaming TV advertising campaigns.
The available Polk data span 30 years of vehicle ownership history, more than 125 million households and more than 49 million new and used vehicle transactions made in 2020.
Last month, Premion announced new attribution capabilities for automotive and tourism campaigns, through Polk and Arrivalist, respectively.
