FORT LAUDERDALE —\u00a0Super-targeted processes were already revolutionizing online video advertising. Now, the marriage of online with TV is bringing the same opportunity to\u00a0the big screen in the living room, in the form of “addressable TV”.<\/p>\n

Once advertisers know enough about viewers to precisely target ads, will they also deconstruct their 30-second spots in to a million different permutations, for the many different consumers out there? Today, that’s not happening at significant scale. But a Beet Retreat panel discussed the prospect…<\/p>\n

But “we will”, says SMG precision video EVP Tracey Scheppach. “The reason we don\u2019t see more activity around versioning is because there\u2019s significant amount of waste.\u00a0We are in the process of wringing out the value that is created by better targeting. Once you get through that value, the client will want to continue to wring out value. You\u2019re going to see creative come to play.”<\/span><\/p>\n

An ad group veteran is excited about the prospect.\u00a0“What\u2019s the point of being able to slice and dice your audience if everybody\u2019s going to see the same message?,” according to\u00a0GroupM global chairman Irwin Gotlieb. “<\/span>The new holy grail is likely to be relevance to a specific need state that the segmentation takes you to.”<\/p>\n

Before we get there, how does the industry want to measure the effect of these new-wave ads?<\/p>\n

“We measure success on whatever the results were that the client wanted,” saysDish media sales VP Adam Gaynor. “<\/span>We\u2019ve seen sales lift of 2%, 3%, I\u2019ve seen sales lift in a category of 160%.”<\/p>\n

But others caution against expecting significant uplift at the start.<\/p>\n

“If you don\u2019t see lift, that\u2019s okay, too,” according to\u00a0AT&T AdWorks national sales VP Jason Brown. “<\/span>The product works. Clients sometimes don\u2019t have their target right.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Magna Global advanced TV VP Matt Bayner agrees: “Don\u2019t expect a sales lift at first. We\u2019ll be able to get some good insights to do it better next time.\u00a0<\/span>I can\u2019t promise lift the first time. But we do promise a journey to get there.”<\/span><\/p>\n
