Here’s how brands can do more with their TVC on Spotify


Amplifying campaign reach has become one of the most important factors to grab eyeballs in today’s digital era. The new-age consumer is evolving and is always looking for innovative ways to discover products and services. This makes it crucial for brands and businesses to find out strategic ways to connect with the audience. BBC wanted to amplify the video content before its release of the much-awaited ‘Seven Worlds, One Planet’ documentary series with the legendary David Attenborough. To boost reach and to make the conversation more effective, it turned to Spotify.

The collaboration worked wonders for the show. Spotify created a whole series of content that included 3D audio soundscapes along with video content that ran in an enhanced playlist, and on display assets across mobile and desktop – the campaign was amplified by leveraging existing BBC campaign assets.

So, how can a brand make its TVC do more for them?

Can a TV commercial be more than just another visual advertisement? Can it evolve and become a multi-format campaign on its own? Can it turbocharge campaign reach and effectiveness? The answer to all of these questions is, Yes! By bringing their TVC to Spotify, brands get the chance to add exponential incremental unique reach for their campaigns. This is more significant at a time like this when there has been a drastic shift in viewership away from the ‘TV’ in TVC. Unlike in the past when evenings and nights created opportunities for brands in the form of primetime TV, viewership today depends on various factors. The usage of mobile devices has sky-rocketed in the last decade and a half, and the emergence of streaming platforms has changed the story further. The new at-home audience has also changed its routines of media consumption and television viewing. This makes it even more pertinent for brands to design fresher avenues to ensure that every bit of their communication and budget is utilised. Spotify is giving brands a way to create a complete multi-format campaign using existing assets. With this, brands will be able to deliver the brand message engagingly and effectively to an all-new audience.
