Nielsen Media Research provides paper-viewing diaries to randomly selected households in over 200 local television markets nationwide. Mailing efficiency software is critical to providing the on-time, accurate and cost effective delivery of millions of mail pieces each year.

The Challenges

Provide Real-time Address Validation

Nielsen's call center agents talk to households during the enrollment process. During these dialogues, it is important to verify address information while interacting with the new "Nielsen family."

Maximize Postal Savings

Nielsen mails millions of pieces each year -- in many different shapes and weights. The organization is eligible for a variety of postal discounts, so it required technology that could enable it to take advantage of these substantial cost savings.

The Solution

Mailing Efficiency Technology

Our direct marketing solutions were deployed to provide postal presort as well as both real-time and batch address correction and verification.

The Benefits

Highly Accurate Address Information

Using Group 1's CODE-1 Plus, over 98% of Nielsen's address records are cleansed and enhanced with a ZIP+4 Code on the first pass of the data. Nielsen now has a high degree of certainty that its important communications will reach intended recipients in a timely manner.

Maximized Postal Discounts

Nielsen's mailings qualify for multiple discounts using Group 1's MailStream Plus presort solution. With this technology, Nielsen is able to save $75,000 during each of its seven annual sweeps period.
