"Alliant strives to deliver high quality solutions and we’ve been long-time advocates for industry quality standards. The agencies and brands that we work with also place value on quality, but at the end of the day it all comes down to how the data performs. By partnering with Neutronian we now have clear performance proof points that high-quality, certified data delivers on advertiser’s KPIs."
Donna Hamilton, Chief Innovation Officer at Alliant

THE CHALLENGE

High-quality, privacy safe data is in advertiser demand, but it’s not always easy to understand how different data sets actually perform against each other. Pre-campaign audience planning must carry through to activation, setting up campaigns in a way that allows for accurate comparisons.

Alliant sought to prove that their investments in data quality and audience development ultimately translate to stronger performance for advertisers.

THE PROCESS

Neutronian collaborated with its buy-side partner, Causal IQ, to develop a process where the Neutronian certified Alliant segments could be compared head-to-head with non-certified segments on campaign performance.

  • Working with Neutronian, Alliant created customized audience strategies to reach the desired target and drive performance for each campaign.
    • Three custom models were developed for each target audience using data from the Alliant DataHub, a unique Member database that can analyze billions of consumer transactions. The custom models combined and analyzed purchase, demographic and behavioral data.
    • Each model identified and predicted the audiences with the highest propensity to complete the desired campaign outcome.
  • Causal IQ set up each campaign with two different ad groups. One ad group used the Alliant Neutronian certified segments for targeting and the second ad group used other non-certified third-party segments for targeting.
  • Each campaign ran during Q4 2023 and campaign performance was analyzed at the end of the test period by Causal IQ and Neutronian.

THE RESULTS

The data from the tests showed that compared to other third-party audiences, Alliant’s Neutronian certified segments:
