Samba TV Studies Find That Snapchat Campaigns Provided 84% Lift in Driving Audiences to Watch TV Shows and Movies

SAN FRANCISCO, July 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Snap and Samba TV, a leading provider of TV technology for audience data and omniscreen measurement, have announced new research results that show how Snapchat campaigns have a significant impact in driving audiences to watch new shows and stream movies. By tapping into Snapchat’s passionate audience of over 800 million monthly active users, the analysis showed that Snapchat campaigns perform strongly by converting audiences into viewers after they were exposed to an advertisement on the platform.

The robust studies covered a variety of viewership windows, advertisers, genres, and seasons while measuring the impact of Snapchat campaigns. The measurement approach leveraged Samba TV’s Causal Attribution and Snap’s Intent to Treat control methodologies, combined with Samba TV’s proprietary ACR data, to accurately measure true incremental viewership lift.

The results showed an average lift of 84% for audiences exposed to an advertisement on Snapchat who then converted to watch the entertainment content, compared to control group audiences who were not exposed. Additionally, 1 in 3 conversions driven by Snapchat campaigns were from new viewers, which included a wide range of viewer engagement levels, from cord-cutters to heavy TV viewers. The studies provided key insights for entertainment advertisers wanting to optimize their spend by making more informed data-driven decisions on how to reach incremental audiences.
