Video and CTV Advertising

Television without the waste. We buy streaming, connected TV and social video against real audiences, then tie the impressions to what happened on your site.
What is CTV advertising and how is it different from traditional TV?
CTV (connected TV) advertising places video ads inside streaming content viewed on internet-connected TVs, such as Roku, Samsung TV Plus and Hulu, rather than through traditional cable or broadcast television. Unlike traditional TV, CTV can target specific households, geographies, behaviors and custom audiences, while reporting completed views, frequency and website visits attributable to ad exposure.

WHAT IS INCLUDED

What you actually get

Connected TV

Premium streaming inventory across the major apps and platforms, bought programmatically with household-level targeting and full transparency on where ads ran.

YouTube

Skippable, non-skippable, bumper and demand-gen formats managed inside your own account, with audience layers built from your first-party data.

Social video

Meta Reels, TikTok, Snap and LinkedIn video built for each feed rather than one horizontal cut resized five ways.

Video production

Concept, script, edit and versioning. Existing footage gets recut into platform-native lengths so you are not paying to reshoot.

Audience building

First-party lists, lookalikes, in-market segments, geo-fencing and address-level targeting for local and multi-location advertisers.

Attribution

Completed view rate, frequency capping across platforms, site visit lift and foot traffic measurement where the data supports it.
OUR PROCESS

How we run it

01

Define the audience

Who needs to see this, how often, and on what screen. Reach and frequency goals get set before inventory does.
02

Build the creative

Format-native cuts at the lengths each platform actually rewards, with the hook in the first two seconds because that is where people leave.
03

Buy and pace

Programmatic and direct buys, pacing monitored daily, frequency capped across platforms so one household is not hit forty times a week.
04

Measure and shift

Completion, lift and conversion data drives weekly budget moves between platforms and creative.
Format guide

Which video format for which job

Direct platform relationships, so no hidden inventory markup
Creative and media under one roof, which shortens the test loop
Frequency managed across platforms, not per platform
Placement-level reporting, including which apps your ads ran in

FAQ

Questions about video

The things clients ask before they sign, answered plainly.

How much does CTV advertising cost?

CTV inventory typically runs $18 to $45 CPM depending on the content tier, targeting precision and market. Most local programs start around $2,500 per month in media to reach useful frequency. We will tell you if your budget is too thin to move a market rather than spread it into invisibility.

Can you prove video advertising worked?

We report completed views, unique households reached, frequency, and site visits from exposed households where the platform supports it. For retail and multi-location clients we can add foot traffic measurement. We are careful not to claim last-click credit for a channel that mostly works upstream, and we will show you both the modelled and the observed numbers.

Do you produce the video, or do I need an agency for that?

We produce it. Our creative team handles concept, script, edit, motion graphics and platform versioning. If you already have brand footage, recutting it into platform-native versions is usually faster and cheaper than shooting new material.

What is the difference between CTV and video advertising?

CTV (connected TV) advertising delivers video ads to viewers watching content on internet-connected televisions, while online video advertising reaches audiences across devices such as phones, tablets and desktops. CTV focuses on the big-screen viewing experience, whereas online video can appear across websites, social platforms and streaming environments. Both offer digital targeting and measurable performance.

Can I target a specific neighbourhood or trade area?

Yes. We can target by DMA, zip code, radius, and in many cases address-level household lists. That makes CTV viable for single-location businesses that could never justify a broadcast buy.

How long should my video ad be?

Match the format, not your script. Six seconds for bumpers, fifteen for CTV and most in-stream, and nine to twenty seconds vertical for Reels and TikTok. If the message genuinely needs thirty seconds, we build a fifteen second version too and let the data decide.
