If you buy CTV advertising, you’ve likely encountered two approaches to securing premium inventory: programmatic guaranteed (PG) and buying direct, also referred to as direct IO (DIO).
Upstream, a supply-side company that until today was called TheViewPoint, introduced a platform that automates direct TV and streaming ad sales. The platform launch and company rebrand strive to highlight the role of TV and streaming as an upper-funnel awareness channel.
For Manscaped and Ro, the Big Game is about more than just flash and exposure. It’s about shifting how audiences perceive their brands.
In the next two years, linear TV will be deprioritized so much that holding companies will begin outsourcing their linear buying.
In the age of streaming services, it’s easy to overlook the enduring power of linear TV. But even though platforms like Netflix and Hulu have captured a significant portion of the market, traditional television still reaches a massive and valuable audience.
A significant amount of the ad inventory distributed to CTV audiences is actually sold via linear. This is especially prevalent with FAST networks, which currently account for 20%-25% of ad-supported streaming.
Smokeless fire pit brand Breeo is ready to make TV an even bigger piece of its marketing strategy after trying Tatari’s new TV planning tool. Breeo was one of a handful of clients that beta tested the product before Tatari formally announced it on Wednesday. It was made generally available earlier this month.
The advertising industry’s shift from last-click attribution to multi-touch attribution (MTA) initially promised a deeper understanding of marketing effectiveness. However, limitations like signal loss and the ineffectiveness of non-clickable media like TV have emerged.
As April 15 marks the deadline for filing personal taxes in the US, it’s crucial to bring attention to a less acknowledged but equally significant tax in the CTV landscape. Unlike the annual tax day, the ad tech tax is a perpetual drain on advertisers’ budgets, diminishing their return on investment with every campaign run through the programmatic CTV pipes.
YouTube is now a rival to TV networks. Yet many networks still post their content to the platform via friendly licensing agreements. In the current war for viewer attention, this is a potentially crippling move.
Tatari is launching a new sister company called Vault, whose first product is a data clean room. The idea is to provide cross-channel measurement for advertisers and programmers using data other than IP addresses.
Just because the media world has gone fully digital doesn’t mean we need to impose early digital models and constraints on every opportunity, said Philip Inghelbrecht, CEO of Tatari. More CTV inventory will roll into programmatic pipes in coming years, he writes, but the notion that it’ll achieve programmatic domination is faulty — CTV inventory is still very different from digital.
