With CTV experiencing unprecedented growth and advertisers leveraging all-screen video strategies more than ever before, it’s important that brands’ messages meaningfully connect with consumers on an emotional level, while driving enhanced performance of campaigns across all screens. Distributed by Tremor’s end-to-end, full-stack technology platform, the EQ solution equips brands and agencies with a more comprehensive understanding of their advertising content’s emotional impact and the emotional intensity felt by consumers upon viewing video creative throughout the full campaign lifecycle.

“Finding unique ways to engage with our audiences is of paramount importance to our team,” said Dani Hussey, Senior Manager – Brand Marketing, Dropbox. “These solutions allow us to better understand the emotion-based profiles of our customers and leverage these insights to reach them in more relevant ways, while driving stronger results for our campaigns.”

The need to emotionally connect with consumers is particularly relevant in light of how quickly advertisers have had to adjust their messaging with the onset and continuation of COVID-19 and other events of the past year. By leveraging EQ insights, advertisers can fine-tune campaign messaging and activation by customizing video creative and targeting in order to reach the most receptive audiences, drive brand uplift, favorability, advocacy, purchase intent and completed video view rates. In fact, video completion rates are 38% higher for EQ audiences applied in isolation compared to third-party data.*
