Streaming Channels


Connected TV

For the first time, more households consume television content on streaming services like Hulu, Max, and Tubi than using traditional TV. Connected TV is a must-have for dealerships to reach in-market auto buyers.

What is CTV Advertising?

CTV advertising refers to delivering targeted advertisements to viewers who are streaming video content on internet-connected devices such as smart TVs or streaming devices like Roku and Apple TV. Non-skippable ads are served before content or during traditional commercial breaks.

Connected TV refers to the television sets or devices that are connected to the internet, allowing users to access streaming services, video-on-demand platforms, and other digital content. Unlike traditional television advertising, which is broadcasted over the airwaves or cable, CTV advertising leverages internet connectivity to reach audiences.

Why dealerships should advertise on Connected TV?

Connected TV advertising can help dealerships take advantage of the growing popularity of streaming services and combat cord-cutting trends. Retail automotive marketers need to reach the households that are no longer consuming traditional or linear TV by re-engaging them with CTV ads.
