    Analyst Opinion

    The Print Advertising market in Colombia has been experiencing significant growth in recent years. Customer preferences have shifted towards print media as a trusted and reliable source of information. This trend can be attributed to several factors, including the unique characteristics of the Colombian market, local special circumstances, and underlying macroeconomic factors. Customer preferences in Colombia have favored print advertising due to its tangible nature and perceived credibility. In a digital age where fake news and online scams are prevalent, consumers in Colombia place a high value on trustworthy sources of information.

Additionally, many Colombians still prefer the traditional reading experience offered by print publications, which allows for a more immersive and focused reading experience. One of the key trends in the Colombian print advertising market is the rise of targeted advertising.

This trend is driven by the availability of data and analytics, which allow advertisers to better understand their target audience and tailor their messages accordingly. By targeting specific segments of the population, advertisers can increase the effectiveness of their campaigns and achieve higher conversion rates. Another trend in the market is the integration of print and digital advertising. While print media remains popular in Colombia, digital platforms have gained significant traction in recent years. Advertisers are now leveraging the strengths of both mediums to reach a wider audience. This integration allows for more interactive and engaging advertising campaigns, combining the tangibility and credibility of print media with the interactivity and reach of digital platforms. Local special circumstances in Colombia also contribute to the growth of the print advertising market.

Additionally, the print industry in Colombia has adapted to the changing market dynamics by offering innovative advertising solutions, such as augmented reality and interactive print ads. These advancements have helped to attract advertisers and maintain the relevance of print media in the digital age. Underlying macroeconomic factors have also played a role in the development of the print advertising market in Colombia. The country has experienced steady economic growth in recent years, leading to an increase in consumer spending. This has created opportunities for advertisers to reach a larger audience and invest in print advertising campaigns. Furthermore, the stability of the Colombian economy has provided a favorable business environment for both local and international advertisers, encouraging investment in the print advertising sector. In conclusion, the Print Advertising market in Colombia is growing due to customer preferences for trustworthy and tangible sources of information, the rise of targeted and integrated advertising campaigns, local special circumstances such as high literacy rates and a strong reading culture, and underlying macroeconomic factors including economic growth and stability.

    Methodology

    Data coverage:

    Data encompasses enterprises (B2B). Figures are based on print advertising spending and exclude agency commissions, rebates, production costs, and taxes. The market covers advertising in physical print editions (newspapers and magazines).

    Modeling approach:

    Market size is determined by a combined top-down and bottom-up approach. We use industry association reports, third-party reports, 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, population, urban population, and education index.

    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.
