What kind of data can I expect from intelligentVIEW Insights Reports?
Insights Reports combine over 30,000 Canadian consumer and market attributes into easy-to-use profiles of your target audiences. Data themes include demographics, household details, expenditures, lifestyle, financial behaviour, charitable giving, shopping habits, automotive ownership, media consumption, and more. All data is projected to the six-digit postal code level, updated quarterly, and audience reach counts are refined in real time as you adjust your audience.

The Opportunity Dashboard instantly identifies the audience segments and markets with the highest potential. It highlights where to focus or scale back so that you can make faster, data-driven marketing decisions. Counts update dynamically as you refine your audience, giving you real-time visibility into potential reach and impact.

In Canada, the majority of consumer data providers do not offer continuous, live behavioural data streaming as privacy and consent rules restrict such activity. Many datasets are only refreshed annually or every 12–24 months.

By contrast, CiG’s intelligentVIEW operates on top of a privacy-compliant data ecosystem, updated quarterly, enabling marketers to build activation-ready audiences of their next best customers based on the most current Canadian data available.

The main sources for Canadian household income data come from Statistics Canada, which provides the country’s most reliable and comprehensive income datasets. Key sources include the Canadian Income Survey (CIS), which offers up-to-date annual insights into household and individual income, and the Census of Population, which delivers highly detailed income information at national, regional, and neighbourhood levels.

In addition to these official sources, organizations like TransUnion offer modelled household income estimates based on credit behaviour and geodemographic patterns. While not a substitute for StatCan’s official statistics, TransUnion’s models provide valuable predictive insights used in marketing and segmentation.
intelligentVIEW brings these data sources together by integrating authoritative Census and survey data with modelled income indicators to create rich, actionable audience profiles. This allows users to understand income distribution at a granular level, build precise target segments, and apply these insights directly to marketing, media planning, and customer acquisition strategies.

National real estate listings on housing prices and sales also provide a contributing economic indicator influencing our income projections.

In Canada, marketers cannot simply buy a public registry of newly purchased homes for direct mailing. Instead, they must rely on data providers that compile property transfer indicators, postal change-of-address signals, utility connect data, and modelled movement behaviour, all under frameworks that remain compliant with Canadian privacy law.

With intelligentVIEW, marketers can accurately identify and target pre- and post-movers based on bi-weekly updated address-level real estate listing information. This approach provides Canada-first, compliance-aligned access to “new mover/new homeowner” audience segments, while respecting the privacy constraints inherent in Canadian consumer-data legislation.
