Rocket Fuel Research Finds Life Logging Makes You Healthier, Happier, and More Fit-and One in Three Americans Life LogRocket Fuel (NASDAQ: FUEL), a leading provider of artificial intelligence (AI) advertising and marketing solutions for global agencies and brands, today announced the release of its Quantified Self (QS) Digital Tools survey for Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) companies. According to the survey, nearly one-third (31%) of all U.S. consumers currently use a QS tool to track their health and fitness, inclusive of smart watches, wearable fitness trackers, apps, and websites. The survey also revealed that 43% of QS users are willing to share behavioral data for more personalized digital ads. They are also nearly five times more likely to purchase due to seeing digital ads than are non-QS users, presenting an opportunity for CPG advertisers to better target their digital campaigns. In addition to valuable marketing insights, the survey results also demonstrate a broader benefit to the emerging trend of life logging: QS users are twice as likely to exercise more and be in better shape relative to one year ago than are non-QS users. "The health and fitness advantages of the Quantified Self movement are clear, as is the abundant marketing opportunity to target a growing population of health-conscious shoppers who are highly receptive to digital media and comfortable sharing behavioral data to receive more relevant ads," said Christian Janelli, Director of Category Strategy, CPG at Rocket Fuel. "CPG marketers can now combine the richness of QS behavioral data with the vast library of data at Rocket Fuel to deliver the most relevant digital media possible to consumers. Rocket Fuel's AI-driven DSP, along with its newly acquired DMP, allow CPG marketers to ingest data from any source, including QS data, and create custom segments to target with personalized digital media that will ultimately help maximize revenue." Key findings of the study include:
Findings were based on an online survey using a trusted third-party research vendor in December 2014 with 1,262 total respondents.
