Mobile Video Advertising
Strengthens TV Media Investments
Executive Summary

 While TV remains a trusted mass market media with the broadest reach,
   video consumption on mobile devices is becoming an integral part of
  how marketers and agencies connect, engage and convert customers.
This first-of-its-kind study from BrightRoll and Nielsen shows how mobile
video advertising can be an effective complement for TV advertisers trying
       to reach increasingly fragmented audiences and improve ROI.
Television has been and remains the primary advertising vehicle for the world’s largest brand marketers.
As the mobile space has matured and consumers have devoted more time to both mobile devices
and TV, the marketing community has seen new opportunities to influence behaviors. As consumers
have increasingly engaged with digital video on mobile devices, brand marketers are considering
complementing their TV investments with mobile video to put their message where consumers are
spending their time.

   Consumption of sight, sound, and motion continues to set records
   on TV, dominates the desktop and is growing on mobile devices.
Today, consumer media viewing habits are changing more rapidly than ever before. Consumption of
sight, sound, and motion continues to set records on TV, dominates the desktop and is growing on
mobile devices. Brand marketers are considering unprecedented media investments to reach these
consumers, whose attention has become harder to capture as their media consumption fragments.

   Television:                            Desktop:                                 Mobile:

Marketers want the most from their media investments, and now they have more outlets across which
to optimize. BrightRoll commissioned Nielsen to examine media efficiency across TV and mobile video
in a first-of-its-kind study. The results of this study provide suggestions on how to execute multi-screen
campaigns cost effectively and with better results.

The Changing Face of
Media Consumption
The challenge of effectively reaching customers
is complicated by changes in consumer viewing
habits, including a significant evolution to
multi-screen viewing. Understanding this shift is                               US TV vs. Digital Video Ad Spending

First-Of-Its-Kind Multi-Screen Efficiency Study
Nielsen, the leading global information and measurement company, was commissioned by BrightRoll,
the leading independent programmatic video ad platform, to develop a study to demonstrate how
brand marketers can put their media dollars to work most effectively through a combination of TV and
video advertising served to mobile devices.

    Findings from the study indicate that a marketer’s reach for a desired
    target consumer may rise as much as 12.7 percent when TV advertising
    is aligned with video advertising served to mobile devices.
The study uncovered how brand marketers can optimize their ad spend amidst the rapidly changing media
consumption habits of their target consumers. Leveraging Nielsen’s data and simulation capabilities, the
study focused on four major verticals: CPG, auto, financial services and telecom. The goal of the study was to
determine how the pairing of mobile and TV advertising can build incremental reach for brand advertisers and
improve cost efficiency.

Nielsen’s research shows that a combination of TV advertising supplemented with video ads served to mobile
devices can help marketers reach those consumers whose attention is spread across multiple screens.
Findings from the study indicate that a marketer’s reach for a desired target consumer may rise as much
as 12.7 percent (in the CPG vertical) when TV advertising is aligned with video advertising served to mobile
devices. Furthermore, reallocating 15 percent of a brand’s TV budget to mobile, reduces the cost per target
rating point (TRP)* by as much as 13.7 percent.

What’s Next?
Although consumers have embraced video consumption on mobile devices, one of the biggest
impediments to marketer adoption has been a lack of industry standard tracking and measurement in
mobile video. To address this issue, BrightRoll has been actively involved in establishing standards for
mobile measurement, including being a beta participant of Nielsen Online Campaign Ratings. Nielsen
Online Campaign Ratings identifies and provides consistent measurement of consumers exposed
to mobile ad campaigns. As standards are established and adopted, marketers will soon be able to
measure their mobile campaign delivery to target audiences.
BrightRoll is the only independent and unified programmatic video advertising platform for
 reaching audiences across the web, mobile and connected TV. The company powers digital
  video advertising for the world’s largest brands, including 85 of the top 100 US advertisers
  and 18 of the top 20 advertising technology companies. The platform enables advertisers
    to reach 4 in 5 video viewers online and consistently ranks among the top two video ad
 platforms in ads served. As a result, BrightRoll technology collects and analyzes hundreds of
  billions of data points monthly enabling real-time decisions that drive ROI for advertisers.
