By 2024, 68% of the US will be streaming their favorite shows on Netflix, Roku, and more.Consumers are captivated by the stories, characters, and moments on video and Connected TV (CTV)—from documentaries to binge-watchable series. The drama everyone’s talking about. The comedy that makes everyone laugh. Or the game that keeps everyone glued to the finish line.
What’s more, in the US, 90% of Gen Z now use two screens simultaneously, combining internet and TV.So, while people are streaming their favorite shows, they’re also sending an email, buying a holiday gift, booking travel, and beyond.
Clearly, the CTV opportunity is real. There’s an accelerated trend towards CTV and (over-the-top) OTT platforms, with consumers spending more time than ever consuming streaming media. The great news is there’s more content and access points available to advertisers now than ever before—and leveraging a video and CTV advertising strategy is one of the most powerful ways to connect with audiences and build brand awareness.
But with the rapid growth and evolution of streaming video, advertisers are asking, how do you reach viewers most effectively within a fragmented and competitive landscape?
