- The marketing intelligence company predicts linear won’t return to its former glory after seeing historic declines in ad revenue last year ($61 billion)
Brief
The Interactive Advertising Bureau’s NewFronts this year may well go down as a seminal moment in TV advertising. A glance at this year’s participants shows how the event is starting to merge with its linear Upfront counterpart, with an increasing number of companies now participating in both. For example, advertisers can now programmatically execute digital upfront commitments across all of Disney’s inventory — ABC, Freeform, National Geographic, FX, ESPN and Hulu — through a single access point with one deal ID.
Amazon said its ad-supported video (AVOD) now reaches 120 million viewers each month; Vizio announced better measurement and targeting capabilities; and Tubi's total view time increased 54% in the first quarter, reaching a record 798 million streaming hours. The IAB’s CEO, David Cohen, says the industry must now turn its attention toward designing ad formats that call consumers to action "The ads must be relevant and engaging. We will not get a second chance at this."
