Astro Power Hour: Your Customised TV Advertising Solution

Written by Kimberly Tan | Mar 7, 2022 8:19:25 AM

Who watches TV these days?

 

Driven by rapid digitalisation, much has been said about linear TV’s viewership decline. Does it mean you should dismiss this old-school advertising medium? Nope. There’s a reason why TV is still relevant, and proven to be an effective advertising channel, time and time again.

 

Sceptical about the effectiveness of TV advertising in Malaysia? Here are some notable figures from Astro Malaysia’s Integrated Annual Report 2021:

  • TV viewership has remained strong at 73%.
  • On Demand shows recorded 222 million streams.
  • Average weekly viewing on Astro GO: 213 minutes, extending viewing across linear and On Demand.
  • Astro customers spent an average of 4 hours watching Astro (two-thirds of their time goes to watching vernacular content).
  • 77% of the advertising revenue is acquired from content across Astro’s vernacular channels.

 

In addition to the numbers above, TV advertising is a prime choice when it comes to building brand credibility. TV advertising in Malaysia is strictly regulated to ensure they are not deceptive in nature. Advertisers must provide supporting evidence for any claims made in their ads before getting approval for broadcast. This translates to high trust for brands advertising on TV.

 

Advertising is not limited to just introducing a new brand, and promoting new products or services. It is essential in staying at the forefront of consumers’ minds. Notice how established brands such as Coca-Cola, Nike, and McDonald’s are still churning out ads despite being household names? Their purpose of advertising is to reinforce their brand presence in the minds of consumers, and stay ahead of the competition.
