FourthWall is extending the capabilities of its EBIF platform to support Visible World's addressable advertising solutions.  FourthWall's platform runs on Motorola, Cisco, and Pace hardware and is deployed in millions of homes with numerous cable operators.  Through this joint effort, Visible World can turn on addressable advertising for the operators running the extended FourthWall platform and dramatically improve advertising effectiveness for the participating operators.

"Being able to target the right message to the right home is the single biggest opportunity awaiting the television advertising industry," said Seth Haberman, CEO of Visible World.  "Cable operators further benefit as they use significant local inventory for marketing their own products to existing subscribers.  In a study we recently completed, examining 144 cable operator marketing campaigns covering an 18 month period, we found that ads that targeted their message to the right subscribers got a 70% better conversion rate than their overall campaign results.  We are pleased to partner with FourthWall to deliver a powerful targeting solution to our operator partners that allows them to drive ROI across all subscriber homes today."

"Platform technology and set top box viewing data are critical for marketers to better reach their customers with the right message at the right time," said Bill Feininger, GM, MassiveData and SVP, Media Measurement for FourthWall.  "We are pleased to be further connecting the dots from our platform, to census-level measurement, and now to addressable advertising with Visible World.  During the past presidential campaign, our MassiveData TV panel with its rich household characteristics, was used to anonymously identify what programming was being watched by particular voting segments.  This allowed the candidate's message to be tailored and targeted to the right voters and programs.  It worked.  When you make television actionable like the Internet through advanced services, viewer data, and dynamic segmentation, you have a far more effective tool for any kind of marketing from a presidential campaign to selling additional cable services to existing customers."
