WASHINGTON, Oct. 04, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Basis Technologies, a leading provider of cloud-based workflow automation and business intelligence software for marketing and advertising, today announced polling data showing that connected TV (CTV) is the most promising development for 2022 elections digital marketers. Additionally, 92% of political marketers now say that programmatic advertising will be important for their campaigns. Basis Technologies’ survey was completed in July 2022 by a variety of agencies, consultants and advocacy organizations specializing in political and advocacy marketing.

Additional survey data shows that:

There are more respondents in 2022 saying ‘Voter file data’ is promising than in 2020.
A majority of respondents allocate between 25 to 55 percent of budgets to digital.
The overwhelming majority of professionals (92%) affirm that programmatic advertising is important.
For the capabilities of programmatic advertising partners, CTV inventory scale is the most important, although customer service support has some importance as well.
More than half of respondents say that the Great Resignation has not affected them.
For two election cycles in a row, the most concerning factor for digital campaigns is ‘digital platforms shifting policies and restrictions on political ads.’

As the 2022 U.S. election season ramps up, Basis Technologies’ survey illustrates thoughts from political marketers as they navigate the digital media landscape. Many campaigns for the 500+ congressional and state executive races this election season, plus a wide range of ballot measures, are exploring strategies that incorporate connected TV, programmatic and other addressable advertising elements available in digital media.

“The expansion of CTV ad opportunities coupled with the capabilities in programmatic ad buying is having a transformative effect for political marketers. The speed and efficiency political marketers have in this channel is extra effective because of the large swath of voters they can reach who are not watching linear TV,” said Jaime Vasil, group vice president, Basis Technologies. “In just a short time span, expertise in this channel has become essential for elections. We’ve seen how high quality digital inventory access with speed and scale has been an equalizer in the primaries, and we think it could make a difference in swinging contests in the general elections.”
