One of the biggest misconceptions about TV advertising is that it has to be expensive. While that may be true for broadcast TV, it doesn’t have to be the case with streaming video.
Why Broadcast Is Expensive
Broadcast ads are sold based on ratings and time slots. You’re paying for a broad audience—even if 75% of them aren’t your target market. For many businesses, that means a lot of wasted impressions and a high cost for minimal results.
Why Streaming Is More Cost-Effective
OTT and CTV advertising put you in control. Instead of paying for everyone, you only pay for the people who matter to your business. You can:
- Target households by income, geography, or interests.
- Deliver ads only to the devices your customers actually use.
- Track ad performance in real time.
Because you eliminate waste, your budget goes further. Smaller businesses that could never afford traditional TV can now run impactful video campaigns that actually compete with larger brands.
The Bonus: Measurable ROI
Streaming also comes with reporting that broadcast can’t touch. You’ll know how many people saw your ad, whether they engaged, and what actions they took afterward. That kind of data makes it easier to improve campaigns and maximize results.
