Analyst Opinion

The Traditional TV Advertising market in Thailand is experiencing significant growth and development.

Customer preferences:
Thai consumers still have a strong preference for traditional TV advertising. Despite the rise of digital platforms and online streaming services, traditional TV remains a popular source of entertainment for many households in Thailand. This is partly due to the fact that TV sets are widely accessible and affordable, making them a common feature in Thai homes. Additionally, traditional TV advertising offers a sense of familiarity and trust, as viewers are accustomed to seeing commercials during their favorite TV shows.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the Traditional TV Advertising market in Thailand is the increasing demand for localized content. Thai viewers have a strong affinity for local programming, including soap operas, variety shows, and news broadcasts. Advertisers are capitalizing on this trend by creating tailored commercials that resonate with Thai audiences. This includes using local celebrities and cultural references to make the advertisements more relatable and engaging. Another trend in the market is the growing use of data-driven targeting. Advertisers are leveraging data analytics to better understand their target audience and deliver more personalized ads. This allows them to optimize their advertising campaigns and increase their return on investment. By analyzing viewer demographics, interests, and viewing habits, advertisers can deliver targeted advertisements that are more likely to resonate with Thai consumers.

Local special circumstances:
Thailand has a unique media landscape that contributes to the development of the Traditional TV Advertising market. Unlike some other countries where cable or satellite TV dominates, terrestrial TV remains the primary source of television content in Thailand. This means that advertisers have a captive audience that is more likely to be exposed to their commercials. Additionally, the Thai government has implemented regulations that limit the amount of foreign programming on TV, further strengthening the position of traditional TV advertising.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
Thailand's strong economic growth and increasing consumer spending power are driving the growth of the Traditional TV Advertising market. As the economy continues to expand, more companies are investing in advertising to promote their products and services. This has led to increased competition among advertisers, resulting in higher advertising budgets and more innovative campaigns. Furthermore, the rise of the middle class in Thailand has created a larger consumer base for advertisers to target, further fueling the demand for traditional TV advertising. In conclusion, the Traditional TV Advertising market in Thailand is thriving due to customer preferences for traditional TV, the increasing demand for localized content, the use of data-driven targeting, the unique media landscape in Thailand, and the country's strong macroeconomic factors. Advertisers are capitalizing on these trends and circumstances to reach Thai consumers effectively and drive business growth.

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.
