Future of TV Briefing: TV advertising’s measurement landscape remains in a state of upheaval

Disparities in methodologies and results among measurement providers had originally slowed the measurement shift in the spring. They were a factor in advertisers and agencies opting to primarily stick with Nielsen as the measurement currency for this year’s upfront deals, despite the measurement provider losing its Media Rating Council accreditation and opening the door to rivals like Comscore, iSpot.tv and VideoAmp.

09/12/22: “The Handmaid’s Tale” renewed for sixth and final season

It is 43% more expensive to acquire a new AVOD subscriber than regain a lapsed subscriber, according to a study from VIZIO Ads that looks into the effectiveness of promoting AVOD services on the smart TV home screen. Other findings include:
· It is 82% more expensive to acquire a new subscriber than retain an existing subscriber.
· The higher up and bigger the promotion appears on the Home Screen, the more traffic it drives to the AVOD service. However, the incremental traffic smaller-sized promotions located elsewhere on the Screen attracts do so at a cost-per-acquisition on par with the larger ads (making them highly cost-effective).
· The size of the promotional budget was directly correlated to the increase in results, without increasing the cost-per-acquisition.
