Rovi Media Sales

Consumers are spending more time with more media, across devices. With fragmented TV viewing and so many content options, it takes more time for consumers to find something to watch than ever before. Rovi Advertising is uniquely positioned to reach consumers as they look for content and capture their attention as they make entertainment choices.

Rovi Advertising enables advertisers, agency planners and buyers, content providers and marketers to reach consumers in “search and discover mode,” when they are highly receptive to advertising. Our interactive display ads appear as content choices in smart TV user interfaces/applications as well as the interactive program guide (IPG), which captures up to 13 percent of viewers tuning away from commercials.* This ideal placement makes Rovi Advertising a perfect complement to today’s TV media buys.

With more than 20 years of experience executing advanced advertising, we can help you align your campaign elements to drive awareness and revenue. With viewers numbering in the millions and ads creating billions of impressions, Rovi Advertising can help you reach a growing audience of receptive consumers where entertainment decisions are made.

Advanced Advertising

Our interactive banner ads in the guide and other interfaces have the ability to drive instant research on products and services, as well as live and C3 tune-in. Optimally placed and providing significant share of voice, the ads lead consumers to longer-form branded content or rich-media branded destinations. We also offer video advertising opportunities on TotalTV (link is external), an online guide to TV programming. Rovi Advertising is available in the U.S., Canada, the U.K., Germany, Spain and other global markets.

Receptive Viewers

With inventory in service provider IPGs and on connected TVs and Blu-ray players, Rovi reaches consumers while they are searching for something new to watch. They notice ads and find them valuable. Your ads can be their content choice.
