Spring is officially here! As we shake off the winter blues and step into longer, sunnier days, it’s the perfect time to refresh, reset, and rethink your marketing strategy. Just like we “spring ahead” with our clocks, now is the time to get ahead in your Q2 planning. The market is shifting, consumer behavior is evolving, and your strategy should, too.
And if TV isn’t already part of your media mix, now’s the time to add it.
Why Spring Is the Perfect Time to Reassess Your Marketing Approach
Spring isn’t just about flowers blooming—it’s a season of new energy and fresh opportunities. Consumer mindsets are shifting, and so are their purchasing habits. Warmer weather, seasonal promotions, and upcoming holidays like Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Memorial Day, and graduation season drive significant spending.
With Q2 officially kicking off, it’s time to evaluate where your marketing dollars are going and ensure you’re maximizing your reach and impact. If your media plan leans too heavily on digital alone, you could be missing a major opportunity. TV—whether linear or connected—remains a dominant force in driving awareness, engagement, and conversions.
Why TV Deserves a Spot in Your Q2 Strategy
While digital and social media are essential for performance marketing, TV remains unmatched when it comes to brand-building and full-funnel impact. And with the rise of Connected TV (CTV), you can now combine TV’s storytelling strength with digital’s targeting capabilities, making it easier than ever to measure and optimize your campaigns.
Here’s why integrating TV into your Q2 strategy is a smart move:
✅ Massive Audience Reach – Linear TV still reaches 85% of adults weekly, and CTV viewership continues to grow, ensuring your brand gets in front of high-intent consumers.
✅ TV Viewers Are Ready to Buy – Studies show that 87% of TV viewers use a second screen while watching, meaning they’re primed to engage with your brand in real time.
✅ Seasonal Shopping Trends Are Heating Up – Spring sales, summer prep, and key retail moments make Q2 a high-impact time for advertising. Whether you’re in retail, travel, beauty, fitness, or home improvement, consumers are actively looking for products that align with their seasonal needs.
✅ TV + Digital = A Winning Combination – TV is no longer just about brand awareness; it’s a direct performance driver. By combining TV with digital strategies like QR codes, retargeting, and audience-based buying, you can create a seamless, full-funnel experience that turns viewers into customers.
Spring Forward: How to Get Ahead of Q2 With TV
🌱 Review Your Q1 Performance: What worked? What didn’t? Look at engagement and conversion trends to fine-tune your approach for the months ahead.
🌸 Plan Around Seasonal Trends: Warmer months bring different buying behaviors. From outdoor activities to summer travel, make sure your message aligns with what your audience is thinking about now.
🌷 Leverage TV for Maximum Impact: With data-driven targeting, CTV, and programmatic buying, you can ensure your brand lands in front of the right audience at the right time.
💡 Pro Tip: Don’t wait until Q2 is in full swing. A well-optimized TV strategy takes time to plan and execute—so start now to get ahead of the curve.
