TVision Releases 2019 TV Performance Report, Sharing Ad Viewability and Ad Attention Metrics Across Top TV Brand Advertisers and TV Programs

NEW YORK, Aug. 15, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- TVision, the leader in TV performance metrics for brands and networks, today released its H1 2019 TV Performance Report for the first half of 2019. The report identifies the brands, creative and TV content that scored highest for Ad Viewability and best captured viewers' Attention.

"As we know, all impressions are not created equal. All impressions are not necessarily viewed by human beings that are attentive, receptive and ready to buy your product or service," explains media industry leader and TVision advisor, David Cohen. "Understanding TV Viewability and Attention allows us to move beyond the 'opportunity to see' and understand who is actually seeing our ads in-market. It gives us a second-by-second view and allows us to look at our television investments in a similar way to digital video. It allows us to plan better, optimize better and extract the greatest value from our investment. It will also provide a solid foundation for the duration-weighted currency that the industry is moving toward."

For brand advertisers and networks, TVision's TV Viewability and Attention percentages help identify the most valuable ad placements.
