Connected TV (CTV) is gaining share within media mixes, but it’s still a relatively new ad channel. Consumers are seeing more streaming ads as the number of ad-supported tiers rise. Meanwhile, platforms and their brand clients are testing new strategies, ad formats, and personalization tactics to lift brand impacts and behavioral outcomes with consumers.
As the opportunities to deliver innovative brand experiences through CTV grow, so does the importance of measuring campaign effectiveness. CTV platforms and their clients must understand how their campaigns are moving audiences and also how CTV performs against other channels to get the most out of media investments.
DISQO’s inaugural CTV Ad Effectiveness Benchmarks report reveals what “good” CTV campaign performance looks like overall and within key business categories, along with how CTV compares to cross-channel benchmarks. Below are select insights to help you optimize your CTV campaigns.

With the merging of linear TV and digital through CTV, channels that are traditionally considered for performance marketing are now considered for brand marketing, and vice versa. As CTV continues to evolve, all media should be examined from a full-funnel perspective to maximize ROI.
