DoubleClick launches measurement, analysis tool for online traders
DoubleClick, a provider of marketing tools for advertisers, direct marketers and web publishers, has launched SiteAdvance – a hosted website measurement and analysis solution designed for online merchants.
The tool, which complements DoubleClick’s DARTmail and DART for advertisers’ services, enables business decision-makers to understand the interaction between marketing programmes, site traffic and online transactions and provides actionable information to users to help them improve their online commerce results. SiteAdvance is based on four modules. Two of these, Site Statistics and Merchandising Effectiveness, are currently available. The remaining two which are Campaign Effectiveness and Customer Segmentation, will be available in the fourth quarter of 2002, says a company release.
While the Site Statistics Module provides merchant and publisher customers with information on visitors to their website, Merchandising Effectiveness informs traders which products are selling best to which group of visitors, which sections of a site are generating the best returns, when and why shoppers abandon carts, and what the average order size or items per order is by different groups of visitors.
Campaign Effectiveness enables merchant customers to judge the effectiveness of their outbound marketing and informs merchants which campaigns are working best to drive visitors to buy, as well as provide information on what happens when a campaign brings visitors to a site, and what drives conversion.
Customer Segmentation lets merchants determine the reach, frequency and monetary value of different customer segments. It will help merchants to successfully turn visitors into customers and customers into repeat customers, says the release.

KFC turns tea time into dunk time with Khushi and Orry
Dunked range campaign mixes gossip, friendship and extra sauce.
MUMBAI: When the tea is hot and the chicken is hotter, you know it is going to be a night in. KFC has unveiled a new campaign for its all-new Dunked range, enlisting Bollywood’s favourite BFF duo Khushi Kapoor and Orry for a reel that serves sass with a side of sauce.
The video plays out like a familiar Gen Z script. A party is ditched after Orry’s swollen face becomes the evening’s plot twist. Instead of flashing lights and crowded dance floors, the duo opts for a cosy night in. Khushi proposes a New Year resolution to simply stay home more often. Orry counters with a more ambitious goal shedding his “gossip aunty” reputation, a claim that earns him a sceptical look.
Naturally, restraint does not last long. Before Khushi can finish her sentence, Orry launches into animated storytelling mode. Celebrity break-ups, DM drama, influencers on diets, the tea flows freely, and so does the dunking. Between bites and banter, KFC’s Dunked range becomes the unofficial third wheel, anchoring the conversation in indulgence.
The campaign cleverly mirrors product and persona. Just as the Dunked range promises bold flavours and generous sauce, the reel leans into exaggerated expressions, playful tension and friendship dynamics that feel instantly shareable. The storytelling is fast, cheeky and built for scroll culture.
By tapping into pop-culture references and the easy chemistry between the two personalities, KFC positions its Dunked range as the perfect partner for laid-back evenings where gossip is plentiful, resolutions are flexible and the sauce is unapologetically extra.
The campaign is now live across KFC’s digital platforms, targeting younger audiences who see food not just as a meal, but as a mood.
Because sometimes, the best parties are the ones you skip, especially when the tea is this juicy.
