How to plan FMCG campaigns

How does DV360 add reach beyond TV for FMCG?

Many households now watch shows and cricket on connected TVs and phones, not just linear TV. DV360 helps you reach these viewers.

You can buy CTV (connected TV, meaning internet-connected TV sets) and OTT inventory on JioHotstar, ZEE5, SonyLIV, Sun NXT and aha. You can add YouTube and display to reach light TV viewers.

Because it is one platform, you can set one frequency cap across all screens. This reduces wasted repeat views and helps you reach more unique households for the same budget.

How can FMCG brands go regional with programmatic?

India is many markets, not one. FMCG brands often need different packs, prices and messages by state.

With DV360 you can:

  • Run separate line items by state and language.
  • Buy regional OTT like Sun NXT for Tamil audiences and aha for Telugu audiences.
  • Use regional news sites and apps.
  • Add DOOH screens near modern trade stores and malls.
  • Use weather or festival triggers for products like cold drinks, skincare or sweets.

This lets you push the right product to the right region at the right time.

How do FMCG brands measure programmatic results?

FMCG sales usually happen in shops, not online. So measurement looks at reach and recall more than clicks.

Common measures include:

  • Unique reach and frequency across CTV, OTT and YouTube.
  • Video completion rate (VCR), the share of people who watched to the end.
  • Viewability, the share of ads that were actually seen on screen.
  • Brand lift studies, which compare ad recall in exposed and unexposed groups.

For quick commerce and e-commerce listings, you can also track clicks to your product pages.

FMCG advertising: FAQs

Can DV360 replace TV for FMCG brands?

For most big brands it works best alongside TV, adding reach among light TV viewers and CTV households. Smaller and regional brands sometimes use it as their main video channel.

Which buying type is best for festive campaigns?

For guaranteed premium OTT slots around cricket and festivals, Programmatic Guaranteed or Preferred Deals are common. Book early, as inventory fills up.

Can we target by state and language?

Yes. You can split campaigns by state, city and language, and run regional creatives on regional OTT, news and YouTube.
