TMB-社交媒体打破网络视频营销现状报告(英文)-2017.5-6页
MAY 2017 F ake news is changing the digital landscape for brands, #ShiftHappens. There is no doubt that we are living in a di!erent era where newspapers, radio and television have taken a backseat to online influencers and now, fake news. The average life expectancy of a brand was once 75 years. It’s now only 15 and that is largely driven by this seismic shift in media. In 2017, there will be winners and there will be losers. What we see is the winners are demanding their messaging runs in brand- safe and transparent environments so their brand doesn’t get tarnished in the current media melee. Despite this upheaval around brand safety, fake news and audience accountability on digital platforms, the one unwavering truth is this: consumer appetite for video and premium content is immense and the race to capitalize on it is on. The landscape is all a blur. YouTube and Hulu have entered the TV business with their live streaming services; the OTT behemoths, Amazon and Netflix are doubling down on original programming and content acquisition to lure younger consumers and cord cutters; and social networks, once the place to share with friends, are now leading hubs for news and entertainment, garnering millions of video views daily. How are buyers deciding where to invest their video advertising budgets? As part of our ongoing series of insights into the dynamic shifts in the media landscape, Trusted Media Brands fielded its fourth wave of industry research to find out. We engaged over 300 agency and marketer decision- makers from the Advertiser Perceptions Omnibus Panel who shared their views. 1 | SOCIAL CRACKS THE CODE ON DIGITAL VIDEO SOCIAL CRACKS THE DIGITAL VIDEO CODE Facebook Emerges as the Top Partner for Digital Video Advertising Rich Sutton Chief Revenue O!cer, Trusted Media Brands, Inc.

Who are the most important partners when planning a digital video campaign? Q. Which platforms do you feel best deliver on these features when placing a digital video pre-roll campaign? Base: Involved in Digital/Mobile Advertising JUNE 2016 APRIL 2017 Social (FB, Snapchat, Twitter, etc.) Video Platforms (YouTube, Vevo etc.) Full Episode Players (Hulu, Cable digital properties, etc.) Video DSPs (Videology, Tremor Video, etc.) Ad Networks Publishers (BuzzFeed, Vice, Vox, etc.) Multichannel Networks (Maker Studios, Fullscreen, etc.) Percent of Respondents Percent of Respondents 56% 59% 28% 34% 27% 24% 8% 68% 60% 33% 33% 30% 20% 13% IS FACEBOOK THE NEW YOUTUBE? Since our previous study on the topic of video, less than a year ago (June 2016), we see a significant shift in where advertisers want to put dollars when it comes to video. Social platforms (Facebook, Snapchat, etc.) are now decidedly most important when planning digital video campaigns, voted as such by 68 percent of participants vs. 56 percent last June, a 12 point lift. That puts social platforms (and presumably Facebook is dominant) as the number one distribution partner, eight points ahead of video platforms (YouTube, Vevo, etc.), which were rated as most important by 60 percent of those surveyed. (In previous research, video platforms were ahead of social by a small margin, and only marketer, not agency respondents put social in the top spot). Further inquiry shows us that among seven possible distribution platform types, social gets the highest marks for delivering on engagement (59 percent), ROI (39 percent) and customer service (38 percent); whereas video platforms deliver best on measurement and reporting. Perhaps YouTube’s announcement that they will allow more third-party verification and measurement is being recognized here.

Video is the largest advertising growth area in digital display right now, according to eMarketer. Advertisers recognize the huge and growing consumer audiences for video and the engagement chops of sight, sound and motion in advertising. Video will be front and center for the foreseeable future. Facebook will lead. Who can beat 1 billion daily users? Despite some grumblings that Facebook is driving the fake news problem, it gets high marks from buyers for engagement and ROI and has emerged as the definitive partner for video campaigns—at least for right now. Show them the numbers. As advertiser consciousness increases toward issues from brand safety to viewability in the world of automated advertising, platforms must find better ways to prove their worth and accountability not only in how well, but in where they reach audiences. Shorter is better. Short form pre-roll digital format is the most likely to get support and drive engagement. Other formats have their place as well. We see sizeable investment still promised for premium, long form, live stream and user-generated formats. Brands have a new set of expectations around all their messaging including digital video. Publishers need world-class audience targeting. They need to provide brand-safe content and standardized measurement. Most importantly, the media needs to show marketers a return on their investment.
