In parallel, advertisers also want to reach their audiences via effective, ROI-strong and data-driven advertising strategies, on any device. These are all benefits of digital advertising that, until now, traditional TV advertising did not allow.
But addressable TV advertising has changed that: you can now launch ultra-targeted TV advertising campaigns using these same tactics. Discover here the huge potential of this type of advertising campaign for your brand
While TV advertising may seem somewhat outdated for today's marketing strategies, which are increasingly turning to digital advertising, it is not.
First of all, the TV consumption figures prove it: 78% of Europeans watch traditional TV (i.e. analogue TV) every day.
What's more, TV ads continue to have the strongest and longest impact on audiences, driving more incremental sales than any other advertising device.
But from now on, it is especially the arrival of addressable television that allows advertisers to create ultra-targeted TV commercials. This new type of advertising campaign uses the same principles as digital advertising, and is changing the television landscape.
Here again, the figures speak for themselves: 35% growth in revenues were generated by addressable TV in Europe between 2019 and 2020.
Another advantage of this type of campaign is that it allows all types of brands to access TV advertising. Its cost being much more accessible, advertisers traditionally present on TV are getting involved, but also digital advertisers, niche brands, and even SMEs and VSEs.
This will motivate you to diversify your advertising investments by deploying an addressable TV campaign!
Addressable TV (ATV) is a synonym for segmented TV. It is a technology that allows targeted, personalized advertising to be delivered to distinct audience segments watching the same TV program at the same time, via connected TV.
Thanks to this system, we move from a "one-to-many" mode to a "one-to-one" mode, personalized: all the viewers will not be sent the same advertising spot, according to different targeting criteria.
Segmented TV can be delivered by two distinct methods:
It’s important to know there are many local differences between addressable TV: laws, technologies and key-actors vary from country to country.
But it is estimated that, in France, 7.5 million households can already be targeted through addressable TV ads. And by 2023, this figure will grow to 16 million households (i.e. 70% of the market).
“The arrival of addressable TV is a small revolution in the advertising world. It allows brands that previously had no access to TV advertising to dive into it, while precisely targeting their core target, without spending their entire marketing budget. The keys to a good addressable TV advertising campaign? Choosing precise targeting criteria, designing formats according to your marketing goals, creating of a global media plan, to test the most relevant channels for your needs."
