✅🖥️ Mediapost (6/14): “The company’s new ads come in the form of “advergames,” which Power says pair “the interactivity of streaming with the premium nature of content.” Hulu and ESPN users will now encounter Quiz Show and Beat the Clock, two interactive ads designed by adtech firm Brightline that invite viewers to answer trivia questions and land golf balls into specific targets using their remote. Both games are branded, with Quiz Show showcasing various brands while you play, and Beat the Clock featuring the entertainment venue known as Topgolf. In addition to engaging viewers in new ways when encountering an unskippable ad, the advergames may also help advertisers gain a new understanding of how much consumers are interacting with their content. As reported by Adweek, the games are customizable by brand, but to streamline the creation process, BrightLine bases each experience on a handful of basic templates that can be attributed to different advertising categories and trending events like March Madness or major holidays.” ⬇️ #streamingtv #ctv #adtech #interactivectv #avod #ott https://lnkd.in/e557hnHq

Peter Adams of Marketing Dive: Disney deepens CTV strategy with new shoppable formats, ‘advergaming.' Disney is trying to level up its connected TV (CTV) strategy with new ad formats that integrate games and shoppable features. The gamified offerings, or “advergaming” formats, are coming exclusively to Hulu and ESPN as part of a partnership with BrightLine. A trivia game and beat-the-clock challenge are available at launch, with Topgolf acting as charter advertiser of the latter. Disney also worked with artificial intelligence firm Kerv on three formats, called Sync, L-Bar and Impulse, that use a mix of QR codes, graphics and product carousels to drive transactions via CTV. Target and Nespresso tested Impulse for campaigns running earlier in the spring. https://buff.ly/3VkiDQW via @marketingdive

Skip, block, or pay up – viewers go to great lengths to avoid advertisements. Disney recently announced 𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐬 on Hulu and ESPN, featuring formats like branded quiz shows and beat-the-clock quizzes. These interactive ads are designed for play with remote control, creating a seamless experience for connected TV audiences. Advergames are a nascent category, with early experiments from Spotify, Uber, and Lego. Games are inherently engaging. Netflix, YouTube, and LinkedIn are now promoting gaming to keep users active and engaged on their platforms for longer. Disney's recently launched Advergames are an interesting experiment in making advertising enjoyable. Will this playful format go mainstream? I think it's got a good shot. #marketing #advertising #digital

CTV and OTT monetization models Now that we've looked at the prospects for CTV and OTT advertising, let's talk in more detail about money. There are four main monetization models that you should be aware of if you want to work effectively with these formats. 1 – Subscription to Video on Demand (SVOD) The most common model, video on demand subscription, requires users to pay a monthly or annual subscription fee for unlimited access to content. This is exactly the model used by Netflix, Amazon Prime and Disney+ today. To create a loyal audience base, OTT providers must regularly update exclusive content. 2 – Promotional Video on Demand (AVOD) This model uses strategic advertising in a pre-roll, mid-roll, or post-roll embedded in video content. Publishers can also use banner ads, sponsorship, and paid ads to monetize, instead of relying on a recurring subscription fee. Xumo and Crackle are two platforms that currently use the AVOD model. 3 – Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) This new and evolving monetization model aims to generate revenue from single content by charging for individual episodes, movies, or pay-per-view events. Instead of relying on building a loyal audience, the TVOD model focuses on delivering premium and hyperexclusive content that is not available anywhere else. 4 – Hybrid model Streaming services of all shapes and sizes are experimenting with a large number of monetization models, and many use a hybrid model that is a combination of two or more models. For example, Hulu offers an ad-supported basic plan, an ad-free plan, and a package that includes Disney+, ESPN+, and Live TV. The CTV-to-mobile cross-device transition is also worth mentioning, when mobile marketers buy media on CTV to drive growth and engagement in their mobile applications. Regardless of whether integration is done using the SDK or API, MMP is responsible for accurately measuring installations and post-installation events. For example, using CTV-to-Mobile attribution, marketers can understand that a mobile application installed after viewing an advertisement on a CTV device should be attributed to CTV As we have already mentioned, the number of CTV viewers is growing rapidly, which makes Connected TV an ideal solution for attracting users. Programmatic engagement allows you to use your own and third-party data very accurately to reach the vast majority of audiences. #programmatic #programmaticadvertising #digitaladvertising #digitalmarketing #ctv #ott #adtech
