Effective TV Media Buying

TV media buying is the key to achieve the full potential of your advertising strategy. Embrace precision targeting and reach your ideal audience where they’re most engaged. Maximise your impact and elevate your brand presence with strategic TV media buying today.

Unlock the Power of Targeted TV Advertising

In today’s competitive media landscape, effective TV advertising hinges on a well-thought-out media buying strategy. At Impress Video Production, we specialize in TV media buying, ensuring your advertisements reach the right audience at the lowest possible cost. By understanding the intricacies of how TV audiences are planned, bought, and sold, we empower your campaigns to achieve greater engagement and drive increased sales.

Why TV Advertising Still Matters

Despite the rise of digital platforms, TV advertising continues to hold significant weight for brands. According to a Thinkbox report, TV advertising scored a remarkable 42% in terms of trust, compared to just 8% for radio and 6% for YouTube. This trust is primarily due to the rigorous standards and approvals that TV ads must pass through Clearcast before airing. With the growth of online streaming and video-on-demand (VOD) services, now is an opportune time to invest in TV media buying. These platforms provide valuable data on viewer habits, enabling advertisers to reach audiences more effectively than ever before.

Understanding TV Audiences

TV media buying begins with a deep understanding of audience segmentation. A TV audience refers to the viewers who see your advertisements, categorized by age, gender, and socio-demographic characteristics. This segmentation enables advertisers to tailor campaigns more precisely. With over 100 audience combinations available, choosing the right segments is critical for maximizing your advertising impact.

TV Audience Measurement in the UK

In the UK, audience measurement is standardised by the Broadcasters’ Audience Research Board (BARB), which provides consistent and reliable data across the industry. They use a carefully selected panel of households to track viewership, offering invaluable insights into viewer behaviour. This data allows advertisers to make informed decisions on where to allocate budgets, ensuring your TV media buying is as effective as possible.

We have been using Impress for many years now for patient testimonial videos for our dental practices and I can highly recommend Gurmit and Harry! I think the service has been wonderful, they take over the whole process and arrange everything so I haven’t had to get involved in it which has been great. Gurmit is always very polite and easy to work with and we will be carrying on working with them in the future. Totally recommend!
