Even in the streaming age, millions of households continue to subscribe to cable television. So, what networks are considered must-haves in today's media landscape? According to the 2024 EMR (formerly Beta Research) Cable Subscriber Study, the top basic networks by subscription are ESPN (73%), ESPN2 (68%), Disney Channel (67%), Nat Geo (66%), Weather Channel (66%), Discovery Channel (66%), and ID (66%). But what truly drives viewer engagement? When asked which networks were critical to their enjoyment of cable, adults ranked ESPN (48%), Food Network (45%), History (43%), Weather Channel (43%), Discovery Channel (42%), FX (42%), and Nat Geo (39%) as the top contenders. We understand the value of audience insights in creating high-performance, targeted media strategies. With cable still commanding significant influence, brands and advertisers should not overlook its enduring power in reaching engaged viewers - the key is focusing on where audiences are finding value and entertainment.

Too many newsletters and articles to read? Let us help. Here are a few articles that are worth 10 minutes this week for marketers. 1. Another take (good one) on advertising during the Election 2. FAST channel growing pains 3. Live TV and sports content ownership, telecom companies going down different paths AdExchanger shared a POV on why brands shouldn’t go dark during election season with which we mostly agree. This period presents a unique opportunity to capture consumer attention. While political ads dominate the airwaves, many brands hesitate to compete, leading to less clutter for non-political messages. This environment allows companies to stand out more effectively. https://lnkd.in/eaf5gkvX Digiday’s shared some intriguing usage charts from Nielsen on streaming and free ad-supported TV (FAST) channels. All streaming models (paid and free) are learning as they go and it keeps changing. FAST networks are experiencing a supply-demand imbalance as viewership growth outpaces advertiser interest, leading to unfilled ad slots. https://lnkd.in/g6pNA8GX Rogers, much like Comcast in the US, have always viewed owning content, especially live sports content, as a long-term business strategy and TV viewership. In Canada, Rogers Communications is acquiring Bell's stake in Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment, giving Rogers a 75% ownership stake in the organization and thus 75% of the NHL Maple Leafs, NBA Raptors, MLSA Toronto FC and more. https://lnkd.in/gXTyyQ3H

AI is transforming many industries, but it's not without its limitations. Today, we went straight to the source and asked an AI article/blog writing platform - "What are AI's limitations in performance marketing." While AI is good at analyzing data and automating processes, it can't replace human intuition and creativity. We recognize the critical role of human expertise in navigating nuances and making informed decisions. AI may get us 80% of the way, but it's the human touch that fine-tunes the strategy for real success. Check out our latest article exploring the balance between AI and human insight in media buying. https://lnkd.in/gMgs_ivE #AIMarketing #PerformanceMarketing #HumanIntuition #GainShare

Our Co-CEO, R. Cass Baker shares a quick and important read on the impact of CTV during the election cycle. The article explores the rising costs in competitive races, though there's some debate on brands' concern about their ads running near political content. Definitely worth a read for anyone interested in the intersection of CTV and politics.
Good quick piece on CTV and the election cycle. For those who don't live in this universe, interesting to note Amazon and Netflix platforms are not taking any US CTV political ad inventory. The article flops back and forth on opinion (that is in the title) but yes of course costs will go up in the markets where there are competitive races for President, Senate and Congress. Not sure I agree brands are way less concerned with having their spot run near a political POV if they can guarantee the audience. Either way a good quick read.
