The Instant Messaging Advertising market in North America is experiencing significant growth due to changing customer preferences and the increasing popularity of instant messaging platforms.

Customer preferences:
Customers in North America are increasingly turning to instant messaging platforms as a means of communication. These platforms offer convenience, speed, and a wide range of features that make them attractive to users. As a result, the user base of instant messaging platforms in North America has been steadily growing, creating a large audience for advertisers to target.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the Instant Messaging Advertising market in North America is the rise of targeted advertising. Advertisers are using data analytics and machine learning algorithms to analyze user behavior and preferences, allowing them to deliver personalized advertisements to individual users. This targeted approach increases the effectiveness of advertising campaigns and improves the overall user experience. Another trend in the market is the integration of e-commerce capabilities within instant messaging platforms. Many platforms now allow users to make purchases directly within the app, creating a seamless shopping experience. This integration opens up new opportunities for advertisers to promote their products and services to a highly engaged audience.

Local special circumstances:
North America is home to several major instant messaging platforms, including WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, and iMessage. These platforms have a large user base and offer a wide range of features, making them attractive to both users and advertisers. Additionally, North America has a highly developed advertising industry, with a large number of brands and agencies looking to reach consumers through various channels.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The growth of the Instant Messaging Advertising market in North America can be attributed to several macroeconomic factors. Firstly, the region has a high level of smartphone penetration, with a large percentage of the population owning and using smartphones. This widespread adoption of smartphones provides a fertile ground for instant messaging platforms to thrive. Secondly, North America has a strong digital advertising ecosystem, with advertisers and publishers investing heavily in digital advertising. This investment has led to the development of sophisticated advertising technologies and platforms that enable advertisers to reach their target audience more effectively. Finally, the region has a high level of consumer spending, with consumers willing to spend on products and services that are advertised to them. This consumer willingness to spend creates a favorable environment for advertisers to invest in instant messaging advertising and generate a positive return on investment. In conclusion, the Instant Messaging Advertising market in North America is experiencing significant growth due to changing customer preferences, the rise of targeted advertising, the integration of e-commerce capabilities within instant messaging platforms, and favorable macroeconomic factors. This growth is expected to continue as more users adopt instant messaging platforms and advertisers recognize the potential of this channel to reach their target audience.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2B enterprises. Figures are based on Instant Messaging Advertising spending and exclude agency commissions, rebates, production costs, and taxes. The market covers the advertising budget used for distributing instant messaging advertisements.

Modeling approach:

Market sizes are determined through a bottom-up approach, building on specific predefined factors for each market. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party studies and reports, survey results from our primary research (e.g., the Statista Consumer Insights Global survey), as well as performance factors (e.g., user penetration, usage). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, number of internet users, and internet coverage. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, 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. The main drivers are GDP per capita, consumer spending per capita, and internet users.

Additional notes:

The data is modeled using current exchange rates. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. The market is updated twice a year. In some cases, the data is updated on an ad hoc basis (e.g., when new, relevant data has been released or significant changes within the market have an impact on the projected development). Data from the Statista Consumer Insights Global survey is reweighted for representativeness.
