Revenue Science becomes AudienceScience
ADOTAS — Revenue Science has renamed the company AudienceScience.
The company has over the years moved into targeted online advertising, according to Jeff Hirsch, president and CEO. And the firm helps advertisers and publishers find audiences, he added.
“It just became apparent that the old name was a business model name and not a problem solution name,” He said. “We really wanted to, in one name, describe what we do.”
Hirsch said since the niche the company is in is relatively small, everybody basically knows each other, he didn’t believe there would be any negative effect, and with behavorial targeting so hot, the company felt now was a good time to make a change.
AudienceScience creates a virtual marketplace, the equivalent of a search engine for people advertisers want to reach, and targets ads based on consumer interest- and intent-based behavior and preference. It manages billions of behaviors a day with access to over 120 million unique Internet users, and makes them accessible to advertisers and publishers to connect with an engaged audience. Clients include Gannett, Jumpstart Automotive Media, New York Times Digital, NikkeiNet, Reuters.com, The Guardian.co.uk, Univison.com and Wall Street Journal Digital.

We’ve been a Revenue
Science publisher for a few years. We think this company is going to be taking off soon and that many more publishers will benefit from this kind of targeted advertising. It make sense..why not qualify traffic and put a value on it, that’s what they do
