広告計画の最も基本的な考え方のひとつは、適切な見込み客に適切なメッセージを届けることだ。今日、それは、最も集中している視聴者だけでなく、すべての視聴者がいる場所に行くことを意味する。例えば、現在では数え切れないほどの動画オプションが利用できるようになった結果、リニアテレビを見る量を劇的に減らした人もいる。また、まったく見ない人もいる。
To understand content consumption, especially amid the growth in video streaming, Nielsen frequently examines the overlap between linear TV and subscription video on demand (SVOD) viewing, particularly when buzzworthy SVOD programming is released and promoted. In the case of Cobra Kai, which is streaming on Netflix and scheduled to begin season 4 production early this year, a Nielsen analysis found that more than 10% of the program’s viewers during a one-week period of the study did not watch any linear TV. Additionally, more than one-third of Cobra Kai viewers watched very little linear TV.
The viewing distribution for Cobra Kai highlights an important trend: SVOD viewers tend to be light viewers of traditional TV. This is important for a number of reasons, but for brands, it means that advertising on traditional channels like linear TV doesn’t provide comprehensive reach. This is where brands need to pivot their strategies, much like consumers have shifted how and where they are engaging with media.
Product placements and branded integrations are certainly not new to TV and film, but as media engagement fragments, they can provide brands with an opportunity to reach entirely new audiences, as is the case with SVOD content. And under the right circumstances, like we see for several brands in Cobra Kai, they can even become part of the story or a character’s persona. For example, would viewers see Johnny the same if he drank a specialty craft IPA instead of Coors Banquet Beer?
From an exposure perspective, the frequency of Coors appearances in Cobra Kai generates millions of impressions among viewers 21 and older. For example, during a four-week period in August and September last year, the Coors integrations delivered almost 170 million impressions among this consumer group.
In addition to providing brands exposure in an ad-free environment, the Coors integrations reached a significant portion of viewers who didn’t watch linear TV programming. Specifically, in the same four-week period, we found that 19% of the combined total audience (70.6 million) that saw both Cobra Kai and linear TV programming featuring Coors ads only watched Cobra Kai.
プロダクト・プレースメントやブランド・インテグレーションの過去の評価方法は、常に広範で多様であった。しかし、従来の30秒スポットを基準にすることで、SVODのブランド統合を従来の広告と同じ土俵で追跡することができる。また、配信とリーチの増加の両方を明らかにすることができる。
