The analysis was carried out using the Digital Audience Profiler solution, a Nielsen tool designed to provide a deeper understanding of online audiences and optimize brands' marketing decisions. Digital Audience Profiler aims to meet the ultimate goal of understanding consumers as a key factor in leading effective marketing campaigns. Faced with an immense universe of audiences on social media platforms, how can brands find out what their consumers are looking for, what their interests are, what moves them and what is the easiest way to reach them? And how can they adapt their strategy in terms of targets identified, channels used and content developed?

Target segmentation and the definition of a reference audience as the object of study make it possible to obtain analytical results and relevant insights for implementing successful campaigns. Each brand or banner can, according to its specific objectives, define the audience to be studied based on sociodemographic variables and identified behaviors and interests. This profile is then analyzed in comparison with a reference universe, so that conclusions can be drawn about the specifics of the audience to be analyzed.

As João Otávio, Senior Client Development at Nielsen, explains, "The ease with which digital solutions can be used is not only seen among consumers, but also in the growing investment made by brands. The interest in this type of advertising vehicle is becoming more and more noticeable and, as a consequence, there is a need to be able to evaluate the effectiveness of the communication process, its return on brand visibility and its impact on the results achieved. Through quantitative data, Nielsen is now able to pinpoint exactly who the online audience is and the easiest way to reach them, by cross-referencing their demographic and behavioral characteristics."
