STREAMING NEWS
 
More streaming services mean more subscriptions, according to a new survey from Parks Associates. “The number of OTT services available in the US increased by 140% in five years, giving consumers an unprecedented number of options to meet their video needs,” said senior analyst Steve Nason. Most OTT households are anchored by Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon Prime Video, “but consumers are finding they can’t fulfill all their interests through a single service,” adds Nason. “Many small and medium-sized services are building their brand and subscriber base by filling in these gaps in content.” The percentage of households with multiple OTT subs has increased by 130% since 2014, said Parks, and 46% of U.S. broadband households subscribe to two or more services. 
 
In its bid to entice its user base to add on premium subscriptions, Roku is offering free episodes of original series from subscription services from Showtime, History Vault, Acorn TV and more. Roku has also made it easier to sign up for premium subs by enabling one-click sign-up.
 
TECH TALK
 
Yext, the platform for Brand Verified Answers in search, announced a new global integration with Trustpilot, the independent platform for companies to build trust with consumers, that enables Yext customers with Trustpilot accounts to manage location-based reviews directly in the Yext platform. Businesses can log in to the Yext platform to monitor and respond to their Trustpilot reviews in real time, in the same place they manage reviews from other channels. “The customer journey starts with a question, and online reviews are one of the first places people turn for answers when deciding whether or not to transact,” said Marc Ferrentino, Chief Strategy Officer of Yext. “Yext’s integration with Trustpilot makes it possible for businesses to monitor and engage with reviews at the location level directly in our platform.”
 
Applicaster was selected by India’s online OTT platform ZEE5 to develop and bring the new ZEE5 app to market. Applicaster says it will leverage its Zapp SaaS platform, relationship with Accenture, and integrations with Google, Microsoft, Kaltura to efficiently launch the app in-market.
 
ADVERTISING
 
Connected Television now accounts for half of all video ad impressions, according to Extreme Reach’s Q2 2019 Video Benchmarks Report, based on video ads served from AdBridge. “While much of CTV’s growth has been attributed to cordcutters, the truth is that CTV is rapidly becoming just another way to watch content for everyone,” says the report. Of note: while the number of impressions served by CTV reached the 50% milestone, the number actually decreased in the auto vertical by nearly 30% while mobile impressions doubled.
 
Geopath, the not-for-profit organization that provides the currency for out-of-home advertising, announced that its Insights platform has been approved and launched as the industry currency for OOH measurement. “This is a defining moment for the out-of-home industry at a time when it is one of the fastest growing segments of advertising,” says Kym Frank, President of Geopath. “I applaud the OOH industry for listening to the needs of the advertisers and making an investment in the state-of-the-art, accountable metrics needed to power a smarter marketplace.” Geopath Insights was launched in beta in 2018 and developed in conjunction with the OOH industry around an “audience-first” approach. The methodology provides more than 8,000 unique audience profiles, with additional segments being added on a regular basis.
 
The first paid TV ad for 2020 presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders starts running today, part of a $1.3 million TV buy in Iowa, home of the first-in-the-nation caucus.
 
Although marketing budgets dropped from 11.2% of overall company revenue in 2018 to 10.5% this year, 61% of CMOs believe their budgets will bounce back in 2020, according to the Gartner’s CMO Spend Survey. “However, that same percentage of marketing executives believed their budgets would increase in 2019, indicating their optimism is misplaced,” said Ewan McIntyre, VP analyst for Gartner’s. “While we’re not yet witnessing a precipitous drop in budgets, this year’s downtick presents a counterintuitive scenario. You could call this confidence in the face of adversity. Or you could call it hubris.”
 
Wurl, a provider of streaming video distribution and advertising services for connected TV, announced the general availability of a new advertising marketplace enabling video producers to sell their CTV ad inventory to advertisers ranging from global brands to local businesses. AdPool is a free service for video publishers and CTV platforms that are part of the Wurl Network; premium CTV video publishers can use AdPool to complement their existing advertising sales and reduce unsold inventory or as their primary ad sales channel.
