a decision component configured to receive, from the at least one targeted consumer device, receptiveness data associated with the targeted advertisement.

2 . The system of claim 1 wherein the campaign management component is configured to cause the prompting of a user for target group information and to receive the target group information, wherein the target group information includes at least one of household, geographical, demographic, psychographic, and location information.

3 . The system of claim 2 wherein the rules associated with the targeted advertisement campaign are derived from the target group information.

4 . The system of claim 1 wherein the targeting component is configured to cause the insertion of a targeted advertisement into one of a banner advertisement on a webpage, video on demand, interactive advertisement on a webpage, short message service (SMS) messages, and email messages.

5 . The system of claim 1 wherein the targeting component is configured to cause an insertion of a targeted advertisement into a video stream.

6 . The system of claim 5 wherein the insertion of the targeted advertisement occurs at one of a video head office, a video service office, and a client device.

7 . The system of claim 1 wherein the targeting component module causes a signal to be sent to a client device causing the client device to switch from receiving a broadcast over a linear broadcast channel to a targeted advertisement on a video on demand channel.

8 . The system of claim 1 wherein the targeting component module causes a signal to be sent to a client device causing the client device to switch from receiving a broadcast over a linear broadcast channel to a targeted advertisement on a Internet Protocol (IP) channel.

9 . The system of claim 1 wherein the receptiveness data includes at least one of a selection to watch a targeted advertisement, a request to create a bookmark for an associated target advertisement, a request for more information associated with a targeted advertisement.

10 . The system of claim 1 wherein the targeted consumer device comprises at least one of a client device, mobile telephone, smart telephone, personal digital assistant, and a computer.

11 . A method comprising:

entering a targeted advertisement for multiple types of targeted consumer devices;

18 . The method of claim 11 further comprising causing a client device to switch from receiving a broadcast over a linear broadcast channel to a targeted advertisement on a Internet Protocol (IP) channel.

19 . The method of claim 11 wherein the receptiveness data includes at least one of a selection to watch a targeted advertisement, a request to create a bookmark for an associated target advertisement, a request for more information associated with a targeted advertisement.
