The present invention describes an online, electronic marketplace for brand integration and product placement. The system provides entertainment companies the opportunity to present their available brand integration inventory, while providing advertisers and their agencies a single source to monitor brand integration options, as well as a forum in which to transact directly with entertainment providers. The system preferably leverages both historical and forward looking data. The platform enables a buyer or seller to view or offer brand integration opportunities across multiple mediums (e.g., television, film, music, video games, and the like), to search opportunities by product category, demographic, or entertainment medium, to sort opportunities by price or date, and to validate post-deal brand integration effectiveness using a defined set of product placement- specific metrics. The system provides brand integration opportunities to be bought and sold throughout an entire lifecycle (pre-production, production, post- production, broadcast/distribution and post-broadcast) of a given program. |
