The Ad Tech Industry Needs to Tell a Better Story

文章特色图片

As an outsider reporting on the advertising side of streaming, I’ve tried to get experts to explain—in plain English—what is going on, 哪些趋势是重要的, 什么是技术?, 以及我们为什么要关心. Several years in, I’m still almost at a loss for words.

走向透明?

According to CTV company Innovid, based on data from Dentsu and eMarketer, of the $200 billion global TV ad spend, $15–$20 billion goes toward CTV. So what will it take to funnel more money to CTV? Transparency, says Inno­vid CTO Tal Chalozin.

但是,保持信息透明似乎并不符合很多公司的利益. Should they be transparent on pricing? 测量?
频率限制? There are just too many competing interests, 而且没有足够的动机让每个人都友好相处.

Innovid has a valuable niche and is thriv­ing, regardless of the complications in technology, 测量, 欺诈, 或者频率封顶. 该公司, which went public as CTV on the New York Stock Exchange in December 2021, does several things: It has an ad server,
an interactivity product, and 测量 capabilities. “我们提供一个连接的电视媒体编排系统,”查洛津说. “It’s actually an ad-serving technology for the buy side.”

Or, in other words, Innovid is working with brands that place advertisement. “[In 2021,我们同比增长了30%, and 45% of our total revenue is coming from connected television,查洛津说. 除了, Innovid于2022年3月收购了TV - squared,以在欧洲市场获得更大的立足点,并帮助该公司提高其在电视测量方面的专业知识, 这是一个备受追捧的天堂,它将提供最终的观看指标:将线性电视与CTV融合在一起的多平台数据.

同样的问题,不同的标尺

Running ads on the product formerly known as TV was easy. 只有一种广告形式. There was a consistent ad-tech platform. Nielsen gave a rough estimation based on extrapolating
面板数据显示收视模式的潜在影响,以总收视率衡量.
Signals went out, ads were included, and you got an idea about your reach. 作为一个局外人, I’d say this doesn’t sound too precise, but it was the accepted 测量 on which to transact.

多年来一直有人抱怨,流媒体的广告报道应该更像电视的广告报道, 但我不太确定电视广告是大家认为的黄金孩子. We just have different problems today, brought about by innovations in technology, 与许多, many more endpoints in the equation. 现在的问题是如何在多平台环境中获得持续的购买, in which each environment is slightly different from the next, requires different technical approaches, and supplies different reporting data.

广告口碑不佳的原因之一是同一广告的可怕倍数. “A family can watch Hulu on a Roku device and watch NBC content, 然后你会看到几乎是一个接一个的广告,一个是Roku卖的,一个是Hulu卖的,一个是NBC卖的,查洛津说. “So you bought media through the three largest suppliers, 但不清楚(作为一个品牌运行你的广告),你会得到三个不同的流实例, let alone three different families.”

这是一个有效的观点, 但一个著名品牌的广告出现三次的问题在于有多少个交付点, how advertising is bought and sold, 事实上,现在还没有办法真正追踪所显示的内容. 这种情况不会改变,除非所有人都能使用通用广告跟踪,或者购买库存的方法发生改变.

值数据

“客户想知道, if] I’m spending money in multiple places, what is the unique contribution of each and every media entity,查洛津说. “许多营销人员表示,很难理解所有不同系统之间的重叠.”

本质上, 每个品牌面临的问题是如何处理他们从多平台活动中获得的数据——不同风格的CTV, 移动, 桌面, 和广播. Innovid提供自我
serve 分析 and custom consulting. “We definitely give customers a dashboard. 我们做报告. 我们还有, 对于大客户来说, a team that helps them decipher and get insights out of the data,查洛津说. Innovid还与第三方供应商合作提供身份管理等服务, 审计, 欺诈检测, and others we haven’t even touched on.

天塌下来了

我很难理解这个行业中真实问题和想象问题的区别. 过了一会儿, 我只是心不在焉, because we’ve crossed over from a specific, fixable problem to just the way things work.

我的要求是讨论解决方案,并以每个人都能理解的实际方式谈论它们. Out of all of the technology products I write about, ad tech is one of the most important because it drives revenue, but it also seems to generate more whining than any other area. 如果你不能以具体的、有证据的方式谈论问题,我也帮不了你.

I’m not sure advertising will ever be more transparent. It’s like playing poker with your cards on the table. 然而,广告技术行业所能做的最好的事情就是讲述一个更好的故事. 你可以把它看作是为我们的读者需要知道你在做什么以及为什么需要知道你在做什么而制作广告. That would go a long way to improving cover­age in this area. 有很多技术,然后有一个更大的广告作为一个整体的讨论. First, try getting the technology story down. Then we can work on the nature of advertising itself.
