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.

The Traditional TV Advertising market in Australia & Oceania has been experiencing significant developments and trends in recent years.

Customer preferences: In Australia & Oceania, customer preferences for Traditional TV Advertising have been shifting towards more targeted and personalized content. With the rise of streaming services and on-demand platforms, viewers are increasingly looking for tailored advertisements that cater to their specific interests and needs. This has led to a decline in the effectiveness of traditional mass-market TV advertising, as viewers are now able to skip or fast-forward through commercials. As a result, advertisers are adapting their strategies to incorporate more targeted advertising techniques, such as programmatic advertising and addressable TV.

Trends in the market: One of the key trends in the Traditional TV Advertising market in Australia & Oceania is the increasing adoption of programmatic advertising. Programmatic advertising allows advertisers to automate the buying and selling of TV ad inventory, enabling them to target specific audiences and optimize their campaigns in real-time. This trend is driven by the growing availability of data and advanced analytics, which provide advertisers with valuable insights into viewer behavior and preferences. By leveraging programmatic advertising, advertisers can deliver more relevant and personalized ads to their target audience, ultimately increasing the effectiveness of their campaigns. Another trend in the market is the rise of addressable TV advertising. Addressable TV allows advertisers to deliver targeted ads to specific households or individuals based on their demographic, geographic, or behavioral characteristics. This enables advertisers to reach their desired audience more effectively, while also providing viewers with more relevant and engaging content. With the increasing adoption of smart TVs and connected devices, addressable TV advertising is becoming more accessible and scalable in Australia & Oceania.

Local special circumstances: Australia & Oceania is a diverse region with unique cultural and linguistic characteristics. This diversity presents both opportunities and challenges for advertisers in the Traditional TV Advertising market. Advertisers need to consider the cultural nuances and preferences of different countries and communities within the region to ensure their campaigns resonate with the target audience. Additionally, the vast geographic spread of the region poses logistical challenges in terms of delivering and measuring the effectiveness of TV advertising campaigns. Advertisers need to develop localized strategies and partnerships to overcome these challenges and maximize the impact of their campaigns.

Underlying macroeconomic factors: The Traditional TV Advertising market in Australia & Oceania is influenced by various macroeconomic factors, such as economic growth, consumer spending, and technological advancements. A strong and stable economy contributes to higher consumer spending and advertising budgets, which in turn drives demand for TV advertising. Technological advancements, such as the proliferation of smart TVs and connected devices, provide new opportunities for advertisers to reach their target audience and deliver more engaging content. However, economic downturns or fluctuations in consumer confidence can have a negative impact on the Traditional TV Advertising market, as advertisers may reduce their advertising budgets or shift their focus to more cost-effective digital advertising channels. In conclusion, the Traditional TV Advertising market in Australia & Oceania is evolving to meet the changing preferences of customers. Advertisers are adopting more targeted and personalized advertising techniques, such as programmatic advertising and addressable TV, to deliver relevant and engaging content to their target audience. However, they need to consider the diverse cultural and linguistic characteristics of the region, as well as the logistical challenges posed by its vast geography. Additionally, macroeconomic factors, such as economic growth and technological advancements, play a significant role in shaping the market dynamics.

Television changed the world; now technology is changing television. After a pandemic-related decrease in ad spending in 2020, global television ad spending has since returned to growth over the first half of the 2020s but has not succeeded in going back to its pre-pandemic figures. At the same time, TV’s share of global ad spending has been decreasing year-after-year. TV’s global deceleration is mostly attributable to a slowdown in linear TV investments, while spending on digital TV is showing no signs of slowing down. Connected TV (CTV) ad revenue worldwide is expected to almost double between 2022 and 2028, as more and more viewers ditch linear TV in favor of devices connected to the internet.
