Definition:
Traditional TV Advertising refers to ad spending on moving image formats broadcasted via traditional transmission channels such as terrestrial and digital terrestrial (DTTV, DTT, DTTB) TV, cable TV, satellite TV, and linear TV delivered via Internet Protocol television (IPTV). Terrestrial television uses traditional antennas that transmit analog signals. Analog terrestrial TV has undergone a digital switchover (DSO) to digital terrestrial TV in most parts of the world. For digital terrestrial TV, television broadcasting stations transmit TV content through radio waves to televisions in households in a digital format. Internet Protocol television (IPTV) refers to the delivery of television content via Internet Protocol networks. IPTV is used in subscriber-based telecommunications networks via set-top boxes or other customer-premises equipment (IPTV is included in the cable revenue split here). Traditional TV Advertising covers all ad spending on pay-TV operators and networks as well as free-to-air networks and free-to-air spin-off digital channels from terrestrial network operators. Usually, the distribution of advertising time in television programs is either carried out by the broadcasters themselves or by marketing agencies.

Structure:

Cable TV signals are transmitted through coaxial or fiber-optic cables directly to each household without the need for external antennas.
Satellite TV includes television programming with the use of communication satellites that transmit to satellite dishes. A dedicated satellite receiver (external set-top boxes or built into TV sets) decodes the television program.
Digital Terrestrial Television (DTT), sometimes known as direct-to-terrestrial television, is a type of television reception in which a signal is transmitted directly to a viewer's antenna rather than through a cable or satellite system. As a rule, HDTV signals are available through digital terrestrial television, and this type of television also makes better use of the radio spectrum.

Analyst Opinion

Traditional TV Advertising in Albania has experienced significant growth in recent years, driven by changing customer preferences and local special circumstances. Customer preferences for traditional TV advertising in Albania have remained strong, despite the rise of digital advertising platforms. Many Albanians still rely on traditional television as their primary source of entertainment and information, and therefore, TV advertising continues to be an effective way to reach a wide audience. Additionally, the popularity of local TV shows and programs has contributed to the demand for TV advertising, as advertisers seek to capitalize on the captive audience. Trends in the market show a shift towards targeted advertising and the use of data analytics to optimize campaigns. Advertisers are increasingly leveraging data to understand their target audience and deliver more personalized and relevant advertisements. This trend is driven by the growing availability of data and advancements in technology, allowing advertisers to better segment their audience and tailor their messages accordingly. As a result, traditional TV advertising in Albania is becoming more efficient and effective, leading to increased demand from advertisers. Local special circumstances also play a role in the development of the traditional TV advertising market in Albania. The country has a relatively low internet penetration rate compared to other European countries, which limits the reach and effectiveness of digital advertising. As a result, advertisers in Albania continue to rely on traditional TV advertising to reach a wider audience and maximize their impact. Additionally, the Albanian government has implemented regulations that restrict the amount of advertising on TV, creating a more competitive environment for advertisers and driving up the demand for TV advertising slots. Underlying macroeconomic factors, such as economic growth and consumer spending, also contribute to the development of the traditional TV advertising market in Albania. As the economy grows and incomes rise, consumers have more disposable income to spend on products and services advertised on TV. This creates opportunities for advertisers to promote their offerings and drive sales. Furthermore, the stability of the Albanian economy and the relatively low inflation rate provide a favorable environment for businesses to invest in advertising and marketing activities. In conclusion, the traditional TV advertising market in Albania is developing due to customer preferences for television as a primary source of entertainment, the shift towards targeted advertising and data analytics, local special circumstances such as low internet penetration and government regulations, and underlying macroeconomic factors such as economic growth and consumer spending. These factors contribute to the growth and effectiveness of traditional TV advertising in Albania, making it a valuable platform for advertisers to reach their target audience.

Methodology

Data coverage:

Data encompasses enterprises (B2B). Figures are based on traditional TV advertising spending and exclude agency commissions, rebates, production costs, and taxes. The market covers non-digital formats such as terrestrial TV, cable TV, satellite TV, and linear TV.

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, 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, media consumption, number of households with television, and 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.
