TV Day: PWC's Michael Kelley

In his TV Day presentation called "(Everday is T)V Day," Michael Kelley of PricewaterhouseCoopers spoke about the media outlook and trends.  The global advertising spend is expected to drop 2.7% in 2010, but rise 1.4% in 2011, 5.9% in 2012, and 6.1% in 2013. 

 

Kelley discussed the changing face of advertising.  It is:

  • connected
  • mobile
  • social
  • targeted
  • interactive
  • branded content
  • fragmentation
  • cross-platform

He also pointed out that we consume media in three ways, with the:

 
1) Head (content consumption)
2) Heart (passions, brand affinity)
3) Hands (mobility - the remote control for your life)

 

Head

The consumer:
-Eager for technologies that simplify and provide control (DVD, BB, Sub TV, VOD = > double globally)
-Digital Drifters" consume more!
 
The advertiser:
-Losing awareness with brands and campaigns
-Shifting budgets to content creation to "stretch" brands beyond traditional ads
-Digital tracks views, engagement, sales
 
The implications:
-How do we get people to pause on ads instead of skip -- the "27 second spot"
-Brands >50% of spend to "branded content"
-Data and tracking are the new "currencies"
-Brands will really begin to sell other brands
 

Heart

The consumer:
-LOVE brands
-Give up info about lifestyles, interests, hobbies
-Still care about privacy
 
The advertiser:
-Consider profiles the new ratings; want more info about less people most likely to buy
-Going from CPM to CPM+ and CPA, CPP, loyalty
-Tapping new touch points -- their own
 
The implications:
-Still pay for impressions; much more for clicks, transactions and loyal relationships
-Value prop: Life is more enjoyable and efficient -- "life management"
-How does the eco-system benefit?

Hands (portability = mobility)
 
The consumer:
-Device growth from 2.3 billion to 3.4 billion in 2011"and going "smart"!
-Want "life management" apps - 4PM daily text w/dinner recipe, take medicine, change oil, buy movie tickets, coupon wallet
-Drawn to social network, user gen content,  opinions - new forms of search?
-$299 Net Books devices with video capacity expanding...every day!
 
The advertiser:
-Want greater ROI from $160+ billion (US) on DM
-Going to location-based applications
-Blending mobile with brand experiences
 
The implications:
-Advertising and commerce opportunities?
-Video differs widely: TV, online and mobile
-Brands to supplement all forms of content
-Detect buyers of cars, movie goers, etc.
 

TV extends viewers to portable mediums (mobile & online).  It provides the opportunity of cross-platform interactivity, such as watching an episode of Martha Stewart Living and being able to download the recipe from the show (cable to mobile connectivity):

 

1. Customer view cooking show

2. Viewer presses a button to receive recipe

3. Cross-platform interactivity

4. Viewer receives desired information on their mobile phone.
