ABC launches QuickView

Following a successful beta trial, ABC has launched a new data tool, ABC QuickView.

According to the ABC: The data tool contains ABC cross sector verified data providing media buyers and planners easy analysis for the development of effective campaigns. For media owners the tool provides easy access to their brand’s data.

This powerful, flexible data tool allows users to create and share custom reports or enhance existing reports containing ABC certified data on computers and iPads. Users are able to analyse different metrics within and across different platforms, market sectors and time periods. Users can then proceed to save and share with other ABC QuickView users.

ABC QuickView was developed in consultation with media member industry bodies and representatives from NPA, IPA and PPA in response to a rapidly changing industry which regularly reshapes to incorporate new technologies and platforms.

This week’s launch includes ABC print and digital data across Consumer Magazines, National Newspapers, Regional Publications, ABC Bulk Distribution and online properties complete with historical data from 2000 where available. Users can search by product, group, owner, market sector or individual title, then build insightful reports with the use of charts and tables.

Business to Business Magazines, Events and Republic of Ireland data will be available in February. ABC QuickView is available to all ABC members and paid subscribers.

Rufus Olins, Chief Executive of Newsworks said: “With the launch of ABC QuickView, national newspapers will have the ability to quote brand reach and demonstrate audience growth across a variety of platforms. It will be a valuable tool for advertisers and agencies.”
