NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Acxiom® (Nasdaq: ACXM), an enterprise data, analytics and software-as-a-service company, today unveiled Audience Propensities™, a portfolio of over 3,000 statistically-validated propensities for 13 industries, that enable marketers to more scientifically select media and more efficiently reach their intended audience.

“Last year, we ramped up investment in new product innovation. Audience Propensities is a result of that investment, but won’t be the only one”

Mined from a broad cross-section of data, Audience Propensities offers rich insight into potential spending, in-market timing, brand affinity, media consumption and shopping behavior – all tuned to specific vertical markets.
