engage the right audience
It’s never been easier to entertain, intrigue, and engage your ideal connections.
Video advertising works. Videos are shared more than any other digital content format, with twice the message recall of traditional TV and cable. The key to unlocking all that potential lies in producing great content, leveraging a strategic combination of video tactics, targeting your audience, and tracking your results. At enCOMPASS Agency, we can help you make the most of your existing video or plan and execute new productions.
what is video advertising?
Video advertising is made up of three main elements:
Advanced TV
Advanced TV- Connected TV (also referred to as “Over-the-Top” or “OTT”): Think of connected TV as using your TV to watch content through over-the-top TV devices (like Roku, Firestick, etc.), smart TV apps, or gaming consoles.
- TV Everywhere: TV Everywhere refers to the ability to watch TV everywhere and anywhere via login-required streaming apps, such as watching HBO GO on a tablet.
- Video on Demand (VOD): Video on demand is any video content watched AFTER its official release date or original air date and time, through a cable provider’s on-demand menu.
Online Video

- 85% of the U.S. internet audience watches videos online.

high-impact video advertising
With video consumption on the rise, your video advertising strategy matters more than ever. Advanced TV is a popular choice for video advertisements, and it can certainly play a part in your TV strategy, but a combination of strategic video tactics will deliver your message to a larger and more targeted audience. You’ll need to consider:
- YouTube is watched by 84.2% of U.S. digital video viewers.
- Online Video (Pre-Roll/Mid-Roll) allows for more robust targeting through enhanced programmatic buying options.
- Traditional TV viewership continues to trend downward, with online video forecasted to overtake the market by 2024 (see chart below). To best reach your audience a strategic mix of broadcast, cable and online video tactics is key.
Note: pay TV viewers are those with a subscription to traditional pay TV services; excludes IPTV and pure-play online video services (e.g. Hulu, Netflix, YouTube, Sling TV); non-pay TV viewers are those that have canceled their subscription or have never had traditional pay TV services; includes cable, satellite, telecom/fiber operators, and multiple systems operators (MSOs)
