Kraft Foods and Grey Advertising unveiled a deal with cable TV operator Tele-Communications Inc. to develop ways to target ads to specific households. Using TCI's digital network, the alliance will create "sophisticated micro-marketing advertising vehicles that reach consumers with targeted messages on a household-by-household basis," the companies said. One of the first applications will be to tailor and deliver ads to urban and suburban markets within the same region, the companies said.
