Spiral is a tool that harnesses the ease, power and flexibility of the Windows 95 environment, allowing advertising expenditure to be analyzed irrespective of it’s comprehensiveness and scope.
 
Spiral allows an analysis of the advertising expenditure of X brands, using Y media vehicles in Z markets across a specific period.
 
Information
 
Spiral presents this extracted data in a cross-tab format where the brands/products/groups appear as the rows and media vehicles as the columns.
 
In addition to media vehicles, columns can group data by either of the following :
 
  • Day of week
  • Week no. in year
  • Month
  • Quarter
  • Semester
  • Language of Ad
  • Duration of Ad (TV)
  • Type of Ad
  • Purpose of Ad
  • Time of Ad (TV)
The flexibility of Spiral is that the data available can be instantly manipulated in various ways. Advertising data can be analyzed according to sub-brands, brands, products, or groups. The analysis can include a combination of any of the following six factors:
 
  • Expenditure in US $
  • Expenditure in local currency
  • Time/space
  • Frequency of insertions
  • GRP
  • CPP
 
Features
 
The data can be split by market or consolidated for any number of markets. Spiral can display the details of each media vehicle or the summary by media types.
 
Spiral has two modes for viewing the extracted data : tables or charts. Options available in the chart mode are bar, line, area, step and pie. Charts can be viewed as 2D or 3D, stacked or un-stacked and rotated or transposed along the X/Y axis. Charts can be exported to any Windows application using the Windows clipboard.
 
Filters can be applied to the extracted data. Display of the tables can be customized according to one’s preferences or requirements.
 
Spiral can save any report view as a custom template. The custom template saves the grouping level, chart type, fonts & colors, media vehicles, factors displayed and filters applied. These templates can be applied to any product / group category, for any period and any markets.
 
The ease of Spiral is that everything can be done on the click of a mouse button, without learning cryptic operations.
