Nielsen rozszerza swoją ofertę Nielsen Impact Score o uczelniane drużyny piłkarskie

Nowe rozwiązanie od Nielsen Sports, pierwotnie wprowadzone dla męskiej koszykówki uniwersyteckiej, obejmuje teraz ponad 100 programów futbolu uniwersyteckiego, umożliwiając większej liczbie drużyn sportowych wycenę atrakcyjności sportowców przy użyciu zastrzeżonych danych Nielsen zgodnie z nową zasadą NCAA Name, Image, Likeness.

New York – Dec. 29, 2021 – Nielsen (NYSE: NLSN) announced the expansion of its Nielsen Impact Score, which helps universities recruit collegiate athletes by demonstrating the marketing value of each athletic program, to now include over 100 college football programs in its database. Launched in October for men’s college basketball programs, the Nielsen Impact Score is designed to help coaches and collegiate teams position the marketing value of a program in line with new NCAA name, image, likeness rules to potential student-athletes via comprehensive recruiting and proprietary marketing data provided by Nielsen.

Nielsen Sports, a global leader in sports media valuation, data intelligence, strategy and insights, developed the Nielsen Impact Score to help showcase the marketing impact a collegiate sports team can deliver to potential student-athletes. By tapping into Nielsen’s industry-leading TV measurement tools, along with its local market research data from Nielsen Scarborough, the Nielsen Impact Score is a first-of-its-kind solution that only Nielsen is able to deliver. The Nielsen Impact Score database is designed to help a university team’s staff showcase the impact its program can have on prospective players. This database allows universities to quantify the inherent value a program can provide to prospective student-athletes using metrics similar to those a brand would consider when evaluating sports marketing partnerships. Now, coaches can pull their program’s rankings at the local or national level to help recruiting efforts, showcasing strengths in their own program as well as advantages over other programs. This allows programs that use the NIS to personalize recruiting pitches based on factors that may help a student-athlete benefit from the NCAA’s new name, image, likeness rules.

Istnieje ponad 100 programów piłkarskich, które obejmują szkoły z American Athletic Conference (AAC), Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC), Big 12, Big Ten, Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC), Mountain West, Pac-12, Southeastern Conference (SEC) i szkół niezależnych. Jest to dodatek do prawie 100 programów koszykówki męskiej NCAA Division I w AAC, ACC, Big 12, Big East, Pac-12, SEC i innych.

Finałowe cztery drużyny w College Football Playoff reprezentują jedne z najlepszych programów Nielsen Impact Score w całym kraju, z Alabamą, Georgią i Michigan w pierwszej dziesiątce, a Cincinnati jest najwyżej sklasyfikowaną szkołą konferencji Group of Five. Wszystkie cztery programy pochodzą ze stanów, w których fandom futbolu uniwersyteckiego przekracza 45%, a trzy z tych szkół znajdują się w pierwszej ósemce w rankingu Social Media Engagement Index Score.

Nielsen Impact Score to wskaźnik wartości marketingowej, który porównuje programy pod kątem trzech kluczowych danych wejściowych:

• National Exposure – The basis for any marketing deal, this metric accounts for how much national television exposure the collegiate program provides its student-athletes. This metric is based on proprietary Nielsen TV ratings data.
• Local Market Impact – College sports marketing relies heavily on state and local market advertisers, and this metric quantifies how a program’s local market fanbase engages with its local marketing activations. This component is provided using local market research data from Nielsen Scarborough.
• Social Media Engagement – This calculates the engagement value of a program’s social media audience through metrics including followers, engagement rates, and more.
