Advertisers have a wide array of campaign options to capture the audience's attention. With shifting consumer demands, evolving privacy laws, and numerous ad creatives and channels, there’s much to navigate.
To optimize campaign performance and ROI, a comprehensive marketing plan is essential, covering key areas such as target audience, ad channels, creative elements, and messaging. An increasingly popular addition to marketers' toolkits is Connected TV (CTV) advertising.
Audiences have warmly embraced CTV, contributing to the rise of cord-cutters moving away from traditional cable. The rapid growth of CTV viewership has drawn advertisers’ interest, prompting budget shifts from linear TV to CTV. This shift allows marketers to future-proof their strategies and connect with a growing, engaged audience.
Marketing in the era of Connected TV and OTT
Unlike the limitations of traditional TV advertising, CTV allows brands to tailor messaging and display personalized ads to niche audiences.
Marketers can access key data points like viewer preferences and habits that provide deeper insights into their likings and preferences. Based on the understanding of viewers’ interests, the ads and the viewing experience are personalized to increase engagement. While traditional TV displays the same ad to all the viewers watching a particular show or channel, CTV ads can be tailored to align with a user’s interests.
The benefits
Advertising to an engaged user base increases effectiveness as the viewers show a greater propensity to engage and interact with the ads.
The ability to ensure precise targeting and serve personalized ads boosts engagement and conversion rates as the ads appeal to users’ interests.
