We get it—your audience is a tough bunch. They’re multi-channel, tech-savvy consumers who have complete control of their experience with your brand.
Your need to understand their demands and behaviors is immediate, and TV hasn’t been up to the challenge—until now.
Go ahead… read our rant. Real-time TV measurement is here and we need to tell you about it.
3. About the single most
important determinant
of your success over the
next 12 to 24 months.
4. How do we know
it’s so important?
Here’s a little story...
5. There’s a pretty remarkable
(global) company that’s been
around for 70 years,
and continues to thrive in today’s digital world.
Hint: you’ve definitely heard of it.
6. In fact, their competitive landscape
is pretty deep.
It’s consumer
products are
not unique.
7. What’s more: most of their products
are sold through other parties.
And they only have 2 retail locations open in the U.S.
8. But they still manage
to maintain high
global market
share in multiple
categories.
All while undergoing strategic shift in
products and marketing philosophy.
9. This company is
The diverse conglomerate best known for its
consumer electronics and record label.
But one thing sets them apart.
It’s their commitment to using data to better understand their
audience, and intended results.
10. Think about it.
A company with basically no U.S. stores has quite
a large slice of market share for their products.
11. You see, Sony decided to
do something bold.
that in retrospect it seems so simple.
12. You see, Sony decided to
do something bold.
that in retrospect it seems so simple.
They realized their customers are truly multi-channel –
both traditional and digital.
13. So, in the last few years,
they have made huge
investments in their
audience data.
And they married traditional (TV) and
digital channels together to better
understand–and engage–their customers.
But why?
14. The goal is to drive
sales. The key
challenge is: What’s the
best way to connect
with the best advocates
of your bands?
– Jeremy Lyons, Head of Direct Marketing, Sony
16. 1. Your audience now completely
controls their brand experiences.
Where they view content, how they view, if
they view it.
Which means you have to work a lot harder–
and smarter–to get their attention.
17. 2. Their brand experiences
completely determine what and
how much they will buy.
(Not to mention how loyal they become.)
So it’s time to starting thinking about how
you’re going to take steps to understand their
behaviors-in real time.
18. 3. They are engaging with your
brand on multiple channels.
Like television.
(So if you think TV is “dead”, think again.)
In fact, 31% of TV viewers browse the
internet for content related to what they
are watching, while they are watching.
-Ericsson, 2016
19. You have products to sell to a
distracted, demading audience, all
while keeping your budget in check
and gaining ROI.
And you’re reaching consumers
on more and more channels
and devices than ever before
while ensuring the tried and true
channels, like TV, are honest with
their data.
(There is a mountain of data supporting this
idea, but do you really need the numbers to
know in your bones that it’s true? If so, get in
touch – we’ve got all the proof points.)
See why we
said this is
important?
20. With that in mind, you’d think that
every marketer in the world would
spend 90 to 98% of his or her time on
leveraging data that drives results.
And that 89 to 94% of budgets would
be spent on the channels that actually
drive (desired) audience behaviors.
(But if that were true, we wouldn’t need rants like this one, would we?)
21. In reality, there’s a huge gap between
what ought to be true and what is true.
Some marketers are shifting TV spend
to other channels,
even though TV’s reach is still undisputed.
TV ads reach 87%
of people over 18.

22. OK,
pause for breath.
While you’re reflecting on all those insights,
we’ll hypothesize why we think this is
happening.
23. See, traditional channels like TV
have typically suffered from one
thing that digital never did.
Yeah, sure, it’s got the reach and the power to
showcase content to multiple audiences.
But it’s not always easy to full understand its impact.
24. In fact, TV measurements typically falls
short in two areas:
25. An inability to give marketers valuable insights in
any sort of timely manner.1

In fact, TV measurements typically falls

27. (And they pay a lot of people a lot of money to report on historical results.)
In fact, brands typically wait at least 30 days, and sometimes six months to get
results from TV spend.

28. But there is good news.
There is a solution that cuts the wait
time on TV audience data way down.
In fact, marketers can get this data within an hour
of a program or ad airing.
And the best part is, it doesn’t really require any
extra work.
29. The solution is real-time TV analytics.
We got really tired of seeing
marketers struggle to prove
the value of TV and media
investments in a timely
manner.
Not to mention, we were fed
up with marketers missing
crucial data points that could
be leveraged for better
content experiences, and
reduce media waste.
Did you know that in
any given minute, TV
accounts for 95% of
video consumption for
all adults?
