Systems and methods for optimizing advertising
First Claim
1. A method for obtaining metric media values comprising the steps of:
- broadcasting a test advertisement via at least one form of media within a restricted environment;
obtaining customer response data in response to the broadcasted test advertisement before each corresponding customer leaves the restricted environment; and
generating metric values from the customer response data for the at least one form of media.

Abstract
The present invention relates to methods of measuring customer response and methods of optimizing advertising in response to the customer response data. One embodiment of the present invention relates to a method of acquiring data about the advertising preferences of particular groups of customers. For example, this data may include analyzing the shopping response of all married female shoppers over 40 years of age after a particular advertisement is played; this shopping response could then be compared with the shopping response of a similar group after a different advertisement is played. Another embodiment of the present invention relates to optimizing advertising variable settings with respect to acquired advertising data in an effort to identify optimized advertising variable settings for identifiable groups of customers. Yet another embodiment of the present invention relates to a method of generating an advertisement with optimized advertisement variable settings for an advertising target group. For example, if data indicates that a particular demographic responds to a male advertiser, the advertisement will be spoken with a male voice and played during that time period. Yet another embodiment of the present invention relates to measuring customer response data of various message media and combinations of message media.
