CLEVELAND, May 22, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Futuri Media, a global leader in SaaS technology designed to drive audience and revenue growth for broadcasters, today announced that its TopLine system has added the TopLine-MapIt™ feature, which creates custom maps showing stations' geographic reach relevant to a potential client's business. TopLine-MapIt™ is now available to display sales research for business categories for TopLine subscribers.

The TopLine-MapIt™ feature, which is included in all TopLine subscriptions, provides audience and consumer mapping capabilities. These maps overlay the stations' geographic reach with data that's specifically relevant to a client's business. The end goal is to provide buyers with a highly effective visualization to demonstrate how station audiences geographically relate to a sponsor's brand and business goals.

Futuri's TopLine is designed to give sales professionals their time back, so they can focus on what they do best - developing business. TopLine provides resources for sales teams in the field at every step in the sales process, from positioning to presenting and closing. Earlier this year, TopLine also announced a new Appointment Prep Report feature, which includes Decision-Maker Personality Profiles: Information to help determine the best way to communicate with prospects and key decision makers. The report includes an overview of their personality-type, tips to communicate effectively, and how to set the agenda for the most compelling meeting.

Now, the TopLine-MapIt™ feature, which is included in all TopLine subscriptions, provides audience and consumer mapping capabilities. These maps overlay the stations' geographic reach with data that's specifically relevant to a client's business.

The end goal is to provide buyers with a highly effective visualization to demonstrate how station audiences geographically relate to a sponsor's brand and business goals. These are critical visualizations to help tell the story of why local radio advertising works.

"Data is a crucial tool for making decisions, but there's just so much of it. We built TopLine on turning that data into insights, and that helped us deliver more than $100 million in revenue to our partners in 2017," said Daniel Anstandig, Futuri Media CEO. "As data-visualization becomes an increasingly important part of the broadcast marketing sales and engagement landscape, we're committed to providing even more tools to develop and close business."
