✅🖥️ 🛒 The Hollywood Reporter (10/23): “In a bid to expand their user base and to reduce churn, a slew of streamers have cut deals with companies in the grocery business, betting that aligning entertainment with those selling a necessity like food can bolster both sides of the equation. On Oct. 8, Disney and Kroger announced a deal that will give Boost With Kroger Plus members ($99 a year) a subscription of their choice to ad-supported Disney+, Hulu or ESPN+ at no extra charge; this summer, WBD pacted with grocery and food delivery service DoorDash, giving DashPass members ($96 a year) free access to the ad-supported tier of Max; in November, NBCU teamed with the similar service Instacart to give Instacart+ members ($99 a year) free subscriptions to Peacock; and Walmart continues to offer comp Paramount+ to its Walmart+ ($98 a year) subscribers. The streaming partnerships follow, of course, the original bundle of video and vittles: Amazon Prime. A Prime membership for $139 a year gets users Fallout, Thursday Night Football on Prime Video and a discount on focaccia (and other products) in Whole Foods stores. (Netflix, meanwhile, has dismissed the idea of bundling.) Times are tough, budgets are tight from a household perspective, and so there are trade-offs that consumers are being forced to make,” says Deloitte. “And that’s why we think it is a really interesting proposition for streamers to be partnering with these grocers or delivery subscriptions, because those things are, for all intents and purposes, non-negotiables.”Entertainment subscriptions are seen as disposable, Arbanas says, with consumers being picky about what they keep and what they cancel. And surveys suggest that consumers also feel like they aren’t getting great value from them.” ⬇️ #ecomm #shoppable #streaming #ctv #ott #avod https://lnkd.in/eqyJxbHc

Instacart and NBCUniversal’s new partnership connects CPG with Streaming and has the potential to change retail. NBCUniversal and Instacart are broadening their existing collaboration to introduce a fresh retail media avenue, allowing Instacart’s CPG advertisers to interact with viewers through NBCU’s streaming and linear TV content. In late 2023, the two companies united to incorporate NBCU’s Peacock streaming platform into the Instacart+ membership package. Now, advertisers gain access to engage consumers through NBCUniversal’s content and analyze campaign effectiveness by leveraging ad exposure and purchase data from Instacart. Tim Castelli, VP of Global Advertising Sales at Instacart, highlighted the forthcoming capability for NBCUniversal advertisers to utilize Instacart’s first-party audience data to enrich their streaming campaigns and validate their impact through closed-loop measurement. This seamless integration presents a mutually beneficial scenario for consumers and brands alike, enabling viewers to encounter a CPG ad on streaming platforms and have the product delivered within an hour via Instacart. The rollout of this offering is slated for Q2 on the streaming service, with plans to extend to linear programming. With this collaboration, CPG brands can engage with the next wave of grocery shoppers in an immersive setting. This initiative aligns with a broader trend among established retail media players such as Instacart, aiming to integrate their first-party shopper data into third-party advertising environments. https://lnkd.in/g9rcxrVJ #digitalmarketing #retail #firstpartydata #CPG #advertising #OTT

I am really looking forward to moderating this session next week. What are we going to talk about? Three big things: 1. The advertiser's crisis! Viewers are disengaging with your ads, citing repetition (42%), oversaturation (40%), and intrusiveness (25%) as reasons to leave them playing to nothing but an empty couch. 2. How to augment your marketing mix to combat this with In-Scene Advertising, a genre that can't be avoided, skipped or ignored - at a fraction of the cost and environmental impact of traditional product placement, yet just as powerful. 3. The huge opportunity this is opening up for networks and creators to monetize their catalog. It's going to be an awesome session - if you're at Ad Week, I highly recommend a visit! #AWNY24

✅ 🖥️ Mediapost (11/4; Opinion Column): “Peacock may be looking to establish a partnership/merger with Warner Bros. Discovery's Max, which could be part of a bigger plan that could see WBD's and NBCU's linear TV networks merge. Richard Greenfield, partner and media-technology analyst at LightShed Partners, says there are more than a few obstacles. One is that there is probably a 50% overlap between Peacock, Max, and Paramount+ streaming businesses in terms of subscribers. That is a concern because it would be difficult to charge substantially more for any combined service -- a key goal of any partnership agreement between these major media companies. Another key complication could be shared sports programming -- in particular sports rights -- which could affect NFL and NBA deals. "This adds complexity to how any streaming merger would be structured," Greenfield says. Peacock and Paramount+ both have access to the NFL. Warner Bros. Discovery does not have the NFL for any of its platforms, but wants to find a way to renew a long-term NBA deal.” ⬇️ #streaming #ctv #ott #avod #svod #livesports #fast https://lnkd.in/eh5RFGUX

The big question is going to be around what consolidation means to competition and therefore how are #brands going to perceive this merger when it comes to evaluating their annual spends. Efficiencies may be found by merging, even downsizing, but what they will not find is #creative excellence with this level of turmoil, let alone cost effectiveness. #AgencyLife #WUTWUT
