Digital Ads Surpass TV Fueled By Mobile & Social. Digital ad spend in the US has surpassed TV for the first time and is expected to rise 16% from last year to hit $84 billion, per MAGNA and Marketing Charts. According to Jack Loechner writing in MediaPost, Social media will account for 34.9% of digital ad sales in 2017, reaching $22.1 billion, and mobile ads will take a 27% share of total US ad sales. Digital ad sales should amount to $84 billion this year, the report says. That would mark a substantial 16% rise from last year, which is in line with past trends, documented in revenue reports from the IAB. More important is the trajectory of growth, says the report: offline ad sales are expected to decline by a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.7% through 2022, while digital ad sales will enjoy an almost double-digit CAGR of 9.5% through the forecast period. Applying those growth forecasts to the current estimated sizes means that by 2019, digital ad sales, at close to $101 billion, will have surpassed offline ad sales (~$93.5 billion), says the report. These figures exclude the influence of Political & Olympic (P&O) spending, which tends to benefit TV. However, the inclusion of P&O spending would still not change the base forecast of 2019 being the year that this threshold is met. Offline ad sales (CAGR) are represented by:
National TV (-1.1% excluding P&O)
Local TV (-2.6% excluding P&O)
Print (-17.2%)
Radio (-4.7%)
Out-of-home and cinema (+2.7%)
Mobile devices last year grew to account for the majority of US digital ad revenues for the first time, and should represent more than one-quarter (27%) of all US ad sales this year, per the forecast, the fastest-rising advertising medium of all outlined in the report, with a projected CAGR of 17.4% through the 5-year period ending in 2022. Using the calculations as above, mobile ad sales would exceed $110 billion in 2022, roughly half of total ad spend including P&O ($220B) and more than half if excluding P&O (~$216B). The figures underline the ever-growing importance of digital and mobile advertising. The study estimates that social will constitute 34.9% of digital ad sales this year, for a total of $22.1 billion. (For comparison, the IAB estimated that social ad revenues totaled $16.3 billion last year.) As the second-fastest growing advertising channel, with a projected CAGR of 14.2% through 2022, social advertising is predicted to be a $43 billion market by the end of the forecast period. Meaning almost one-third of all digital ad spend would be directed towards social media, and 1 in every 5 advertising dollars transacted in the US would be allocated to social media. Email marketers are more interested in increasing conversions than in boosting sharing or growing their lists, details a new report from Ascend2 and its Research Partners. When it comes to optimizing conversions, personalization seems to be the belle of the ball, per the study.
Remember, social media marketing isn’t always the tech. It’s the people.
Today, traditional TV still accounts for the lion’s share of video viewing, but online and mobile are where the growth is. When managed together, TV/digital/mobile hold the potential to drive real impact for advertisers—enabling them to maximize the customers they reach and/or reinforce key messaging across screens. After all, ‘It’s all about screens’.
