New Study for Delivery Agent Reveals Majority of Connected Consumers Are Interested in Participating in a Variety of Television Commerce Activities
With Nearly 500 Million Connected TV Devices Worldwide, Engagement and Commerce Conducted Through Television Advertising and Programming Poised to Rise
(firmenpresse) - SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 02/26/15 -- , Inc., the market leader in turning audiences into customers for the world's leading global brands, today released the findings from a study conducted for Delivery Agent by Nielsen. The study revealed notable consumer interest and intent to engage in commerce and associated commerce activities through connected televisions and related devices.
The research underscores the opportunity for TV marketers to increase viewer engagement, generate customer leads, and sell products directly through the largest screen in consumer homes. Of particular interest, a majority of respondents agreed they would be inclined to use their TV remote to interact with products featured in TV commercials and programs. The research also found that consumers ages 18 - 34 had a slightly higher propensity to engage in a variety of television commerce (t-commerce) scenarios, followed closely by respondents ages 35 - 49.
The study also showed how a TV commercial enhanced with an interactive overlay can outperform a traditional, non-interactive version of the same ad. Respondents who were exposed to an interactive version of a commercial were more likely to correctly identify the product featured in the ad (75% who saw the interactive ad versus 57% who saw the non-interactive ad). Further, the interactive version of the commercial proved to be more effective at communicating the product's benefits (42% strongly/somewhat agree among those who saw the interactive ad versus 34% who saw the non-interactive ad) and differentiating the product from other brands (33% strongly/somewhat agree among those who saw the interactive ad versus 26% who saw the non-interactive ad).
The research surveyed 1,623 U.S. adults (18+) who have a TV or other device (video game console, streaming media player, DVR, DVD) connected to the Internet. Consumers were shown both interactive and non-interactive ads.
Findings from the study include:
"The future of successful marketing is deeply linked to a brand's ability to monetize its message and story across all screens -- the television being the newest engagement and transactional screen," said Mike Fitzsimmons, Delivery Agent CEO. "With the technology and consumer interest in place, we'll start to see a profound impact on how marketers and media companies think about marketing through the television."
Reebok and Overstock.com each deployed t-commerce campaigns through Delivery Agent's ShopTV® t-commerce platform. Reebok was the first global athletic brand to embrace t-commerce, shop enabling their national advertising campaign. Overstock.com, ranked 31 on The Internet Retailer 2014 Top 500 Guide®, is the second mass merchant retailer to activate their national ad campaign through Delivery Agent's ShopTV.
"Overstock is known as an early adopter, leveraging technology to advance our relationship with our customers. With the launch of our 'Overstocktober' television campaign we were interested in providing our consumers with a deeper connection to our brand and our products -- something not previously available to a television advertiser," said Overstock.com President Stormy Simon. "Our partnership with Delivery Agent allowed us to add an engagement and transactional layer on top of our existing television creative. The output was a more interactive ad and valuable consumer analytics that are traditionally only available through digital marketing channels."
