Triple Threat: When Are Program Ratings Not Enough?

The E-Score Triple Threat: Celebrity – Brand – Programs

In today’s ever changing and complex media market, you can’t rely on one-dimensional research metrics to provide the tools you need to succeed.  E-Poll’s flagship suite of research products – E-Score – is designed to provide entertainment companies, brands, and agencies a very cost-effective solution for all their marketing and entertainment vehicles.

For example, ad buyers and sellers typically have little to go on beyond rating or CPM numbers when negotiating a buy. Any one of our E-Score products will give you in-depth insights into that area.

Combine two products to strengthen your argument to get an edge, or combine all three and get the complete picture.  All at a fraction of the cost of other products.
