Enhanced Lead Scoring and Lead Verification Solutions Launched Along with
New San Francisco and New York Offices
VIENNA, VA, February 24, 2009 – In an October 2009 Forrester Research
report titled The Intelligent Approach to Customer Intelligence, Andreas
Weigend, Amazon.com’s former chief scientist, said “In 2009, more data will
be generated by individuals than in the entire history of mankind through
2008.”
That’s why today, TARGUSinfo, the trusted leader in On-Demand InsightR about
prospects and customers, announced that it has deepened its investment in
innovation, offices and personnel to further help businesses capitalize on
the massive amount of data available.
“We closed 2009 with great success by helping our customers achieve improved
audience targeting, better customer experiences, higher conversion rates and
increased customer lifetime values,” said George Moore, CEO and chairman,
TARGUSinfo. “However, with the explosion of data continuing at a breakneck
pace, our customers continue to choose TARGUSinfo because of our core
ability to link predictive attributes to consumers and businesses in real
time. We’ve committed considerable engineering man hours and financial
resources to offer our clients even greater innovation through our
verification, scoring and online targeting solutions.”

Placing Powerful Online Audience Data in the Hands of Advertisers, Agencies
and Ad Networks
Launched in 2009, AdAdvisorR from TARGUSinfo is the first solution that
brings rich, verified offline attributes to the online advertising
ecosystem.
AdAdvisor gives advertisers and their agencies an unprecedented ability to
define their desired audiences, while at the same time enabling publishers,
ad networks and demand-side platforms to deliver those audiences with
accuracy at scale. Leading companies in the online advertising ecosystem
that leverage AdAdvisor data include: AdMeld, AppNexus, AudienceScience,
Collective, InviteMedia, MediaMath, Rubicon Project, Tribal Fusion and

potential targeting criteria such as travel habits, investment needs and
brand preferences, AdAdvisor makes it possible for agencies to discretely
identify the particular group of consumers that are most likely to be
receptive to specific messaging and respond to a given campaign.
AdAdvisor data and verified demographics enable the nation’s top agencies,
ad networks and online publishers to deliver highly relevant display
advertising – in the moment they encounter each visitor.
