Does size matter? 🤔 Sometimes it’s difficult to really differentiate the benefits of one marketing channel over another, but when it comes to streaming, it’s crucial to understand what’s in the mix: 😳 Unmatched Engagement – Big screen (CTV) offers unparalleled viewer engagement. CTV has a 30% higher engagement rate, and 2X completion rates compared to mobile. (Thanks Marion Ranchet for this stat from your newsletter 🙏🏼) 🎯 Targeted Reach – CTV Combines the mass reach of traditional TV with the precision targeting of digital. Advertisers can not only leverage data for targeted audiences, but also enrich existing data based on post campaign insights. 📊 Enhanced Metrics – CTV provides advanced analytics, allowing for improved campaign performance tracking, and better optimization as a result for desired outcomes. 🔀 Omnichannel – CTV seamlessly integrates into an advertiser’s broader marketing strategy, ensuring consistent brand messaging across various platforms. 📺 Viewer Shift – CTV popularity is on the rise, and this trend proves a unmissable opportunity for advertisers and publishers alike. Goes without saying that it shouldn’t be a ‘this or that’ situation. CTV in combination with a strong marketing mix which includes Mobile is essential for reaching and impacting a diverse audience to optimize revenue. ________________________ 📞 At Streamly, we're at the forefront of this evolution, helping our clients navigate the complexities of the CTV landscape across MENA.

Thanks for sharing, Emily Horgan. Can we truly declare the streaming war over? While YouTube's accessibility and massive reach, particularly among young viewers (as per Nielsen methodology), are undeniable, the streaming landscape is far from settled. In the MENA region, diverse preferences, cultural nuances, and the wider debate over premium content, large-screen experiences, and advertising impact make it a far more complex picture. This is just one battle in a broader trend of consumers, entertainment, and advertising industries shifting towards streaming platforms, with content, subscription, and advertising models all growing alongside it. _____________ At Streamly Digital, we specialize in partnering with content owners and publishers across MENA as a neutral partner. We help monetize their inventory with the best technology, processes, and hands-on support.
