Analyst Opinion

The Audio Advertising market in BRICS is experiencing significant growth due to changing customer preferences and local special circumstances.

Customer preferences:
Customers in the BRICS countries are increasingly turning to audio advertising as a way to reach their target audience. This is due to the growing popularity of audio streaming services and the rise of smart speakers. Consumers are spending more time listening to music and podcasts on platforms such as Spotify and Apple Music, creating a prime opportunity for advertisers to reach them through audio ads. Additionally, the convenience and personalization offered by smart speakers like Amazon Echo and Google Home make audio advertising an effective way to engage with consumers in their homes.

Trends in the market:
In Brazil, the largest economy in the BRICS group, the audio advertising market is booming. With a large population and a strong music culture, Brazilians are highly receptive to audio ads. Advertisers are leveraging this trend by partnering with popular music streaming platforms and podcast networks to reach their target audience. Additionally, the rise of mobile devices and the increasing availability of mobile internet have made it easier for advertisers to deliver targeted audio ads to consumers on the go. In Russia, the audio advertising market is also experiencing rapid growth. The country has a strong radio tradition, with many people tuning in to their favorite stations throughout the day. Advertisers are capitalizing on this by placing audio ads during popular radio programs and partnering with radio networks to reach a wide audience. Additionally, the increasing popularity of music streaming services in Russia is creating new opportunities for audio advertising. In India and China, two of the most populous countries in the world, the audio advertising market is growing due to the widespread adoption of smartphones. With millions of people accessing music streaming platforms and podcasts on their mobile devices, advertisers are able to reach a large and diverse audience. In India, the rise of regional language content has also opened up new avenues for audio advertising, allowing advertisers to target specific regions and demographics.

Local special circumstances:
Each of the BRICS countries has its own unique set of circumstances that contribute to the growth of the audio advertising market. In Brazil, for example, the country's vibrant music culture and the popularity of music streaming platforms have created a fertile ground for audio advertising. In Russia, the strong tradition of radio and the increasing popularity of music streaming services have driven the growth of the market. In India and China, the widespread adoption of smartphones and the availability of regional language content have played a key role in the development of the audio advertising market.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The growth of the audio advertising market in the BRICS countries is also influenced by underlying macroeconomic factors. As these economies continue to grow and develop, more people have disposable income to spend on entertainment and media consumption. This has led to an increase in the demand for music streaming services and podcasts, creating a larger audience for audio advertising. Additionally, advancements in technology, such as the widespread availability of mobile internet and the rise of smart speakers, have made it easier for advertisers to deliver targeted audio ads to consumers.

Methodology

Data coverage:

Data encompasses enterprises (B2B). Figures are based on audio advertising spending and exclude agency commissions, rebates, production costs, and taxes. The market covers traditional radio advertising (broadcasting programs on terrestrial radio stations or networks) and digital audio advertising (pre- and in-stream audio ads and podcast streaming ads).

Modeling approach:

Market size is determined by a combined top-down and bottom-up approach. We use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party reports, web traffic, and survey results from our primary research (e.g., Consumer Insights Global Survey) to analyze the markets. To estimate the market size for each country individually, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific industry associations, such as GDP, internet users, consumer spending, and digital consumer spending.

Forecasts:

We use a variety of forecasting techniques, depending on the behavior of the market. For instance, the S-curve function is well suited to forecast digital products due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption, whereas exponential trend smoothing (ETS) is more suited for projecting steady growth in traditional advertising markets.

Additional notes:

Data is modeled using current exchange rates. The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. The market is updated twice per year in case market dynamics change.
