What do advertisers need to know to capitalize on the forthcoming AVOD boom? Let’s look at a few considerations missing from the current industry commentary.
Social media platforms and cable news programs work as connections to the broader world, both nationally and internationally. However, the larger scope doesn’t often refer to regional or local stories. In turn, there are also fewer print newspapers available, which can make people feel isolated from what’s happening in their surrounding area. They have come to increasingly rely on local TV news to remain informed on matters going on in their backyard.
The transition to impression-based buying in the TV space will rank among the most defining media trends of 2022.

The rise of over-the-top (OTT) and other streaming platforms have diversified the viewing experience. From traditional TV to streaming devices, consumers are watching their favorite programs anywhere and at any time. By adopting a multi-screen advertising strategy, advertisers can reach a wider audience while also delivering a personalized experience for specific audiences.

Despite the economic disruptions brought by the Covid-19 pandemic, the global TV advertising market grew exponentially in the last two years, with CTV ad spend alone surging from $12.9 billion in 2020 to $16.6 billion in 2021, according to GroupM. However, recovery across all verticals has been uneven, pushing different brand categories to devise new strategies to succeed in the post-pandemic era.
The progress that’s being made within the TV landscape isn’t based on competition – it comes from cooperation. For advertisers, understanding the nature of this cooperation can prove valuable in unlocking and enhancing opportunities.
