expand their reach even further by adding OTT to their marketing plan<\/a>. In addition to reaching consumers who no longer watch traditional linear TV (cord-cutters or cord-nevers), OTT reaches those who want more options (cord-extenders or -stackers). In other words, OTT is not replacing broadcast TV viewing \u2014 it\u2019s just adding to their total video viewing time.<\/p>\n2. Refine Your Targeting.\u00a0<\/strong>OTT advertising can be targeted as narrowly as ZIP code. As precision targeting continues to improve, OTT advertisers will be able to achieve greater efficiencies in reach and relevancy.

When considering your TV advertising budget, remember both broadcast and OTT have important places in an effective integrated marketing plan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
