Best Practices
CTV performance hinges on crafting creative that resonates with viewers and drives action. Here are the CTV creative best practices to drive better results.
Define Your Goals & Audience
Before diving into creative, clearly define your campaign objectives and audience segments.
Ensure Quality Standards

Nail the Technical Specs
Align with technical specs for the length (15 or 30 seconds), file format (MP4), and resolution (1080p).
Align Creative to the Medium
When retargeting buyers across non-CTV channels, optimize the creative accordingly by adding clickable elements like buttons.
Personalize to Your Audience
Tailor your ads to each unique segment by using unique visuals and highlighting different products and services.
Prevent Ad Fatigue
Use safeguards to prevent ad fatigue, such as rotating creative variants, capping frequency, and monitoring conversions.
