    In the Living Room, Kids are the Chief Entertainment Officers: What does this mean for brands?

    With the explosion of CTV adoption, every brand must reconsider how they sell and where they engage consumers of every age. Video programming is the secret to moving any brand forward, and there’s no more engaging or talked-about spots than those seen on TV – and this is especially true with children and family-focused programming. In fact, Future Today recently found that more than half of parents watch alongside their children. Furthermore, upwards of 87% of families talk about the ads they see while streaming TV, and 67% of parents are heavily influenced by their children when making a purchasing decision.

    The Evolution of the Media Buy: How OTT Changed the TV Media Landscape For Good

    Thanks in large part to OTT, the evolution of TV Media continues to evolve in ways that are advantageous to the entire marketplace. As TV continues its evolution, it has expanded across all screens, transitioned to impressions, benefitted from increased addressability functions, gained quantified granular reporting and prospered from more effective CPMs. One size does not fit all in today’s TV media market and this panel will discuss the must-haves for today’s successful TV media campaign.

    Join NYI’s VP of Advanced Advertising, Jason Swartz, for a conversation about the key ways in which TV Media campaigns have evolved including:

    The importance of a holistic campaign that includes Local OTT
    Why Streaming is as essential to a successful TV Media strategy as CTV, Addressable TV, Linear, VOD, Digital, and Ad Tech Solutions
    How the transition to Impressions translates into reaching more of the right consumers
    The latest in reporting technology and its impact on a brand’s ROI
    The main reason that White Glove Service is making a comeback
