CTV/OTT Streaming TV Advertising — Production, Targeting, and Media Buying

Killerspots operates its own CTV ad platform with a potential reach of 90% of all U.S. streaming households, delivering over 100 billion impressions per week across every major streaming platform.

Geofencing & Location-Based Advertising
Location is one of the strongest indicators of purchase intent. Killerspots deploys geofencing and location-based advertising campaigns that serve display and video ads to consumers based on where they are — or where they’ve been — in real time.
We draw a virtual boundary (geofence) around business locations, competitor locations, event venues, or points of interest. When a consumer enters that boundary, their device becomes eligible to receive your ad — and we continue retargeting them even after they leave, extending your reach beyond the initial visit.
Proximity Targeting :
Serve ads to consumers as they enter a defined radius around any business location or point of interest.
Behavioral Audience Targeting:
Reach consumers based on real-world visitation patterns and lifestyle behavior — targeting profiles like "fitness enthusiasts," "in-market for auto," "luxury shoppers," "foodies," and dozens more.
Historical Audience Targeting :
Target consumers who have recently visited a specific brand or business category (e.g., anyone who visited a competitor's store in the last 90 days).
Foot Traffic Attribution :
Measure actual store visits from users who were exposed to your ad, with verified visitation data filtered for employees, store hours, dwell time, and speed.
Display and video ad formats :
Static banners (300x250, 320x50) and mobile video (:15 and :30 second spots) served within in-app inventory.
Live Dashboard Reporting :
Impressions, clicks, CTR by creative, day of week, geofence location, and device type. Foot traffic attribution data for applicable campaigns.
YouTube Advertising
YouTube is the second-largest search engine in the world with over two billion monthly active users. Killerspots builds and manages YouTube ad campaigns that put your brand message in front of potential customers based on age, location, interests, search behavior, and viewing habits — using Google’s audience data for precision targeting.
YouTube ad formats available:
Skippable TrueView In-Stream
Pre-roll and mid-roll ads that users can skip after 5 seconds. Cost-per-view model — you only pay when someone watches at least 30 seconds or clicks through.
Non-Skippable In-Stream
7–15 second ads that viewers must watch in full before accessing their content. Guaranteed complete message delivery.
TrueView In-Feed (formerly Discovery)
Ads that appear in YouTube search results, related videos, and homepage. Ideal for brand consideration and long-form content.
Bumper Ads
6-second non-skippable ads designed for maximum brand awareness and message reinforcement.
YouTube Shorts
Vertical video ads served in the Shorts feed to a highly engaged mobile-first audience.
What’s included:
Creative strategy, video production (if needed), campaign setup, audience targeting, bid management, A/B testing, performance tracking, and reporting through the Killerspots Analytics dashboard.
Streaming Audio Advertising
Streaming audio ads reach listeners during some of the most focused moments of their day — commuting, exercising, working, or relaxing. Killerspots places non-skippable audio ads across major streaming platforms including Spotify, iHeart, Audacy, TuneIn, PodcastOne, Spreaker, and dozens more through premium inventory providers.
Audio ads are delivered within music, podcast, and audiobook content, ensuring your message is heard in a low-competition, high-attention environment. Killerspots produces the audio creative in-house — scripting, voiceover, sound design, and mastering — and manages the entire campaign from targeting to reporting.

Targeted Email Marketing Campaigns
Email marketing remains one of the highest-ROI digital marketing channels. Killerspots deploys targeted email campaigns to defined audiences of potential customers based on geography, demographics, interests, and behavior — reaching thousands of verified inboxes with your message, imagery, and call to action.
Killerspots does not send email to your existing list. We deploy campaigns to a third-party, permission-based database of U.S. consumers sourced from over 5,000 content websites, online publishers, and co-registration partners — with full CAN-SPAM and GDPR compliance. Every campaign includes a guaranteed 2% click-through rate.

Amazon
Amazon Advertising — Maximize product visibility on the world's largest e-commerce platform with sponsored product ads, display ads, and video ads managed by the Killerspots team.
- In-House Creative Production
We Don't Just Buy Media — We Make the Creative That Runs on It
This is where Killerspots breaks from every other media buying agency. Most agencies buy your ad placements, then send you to a separate production company for the creative. That means your media buyer doesn’t control the quality or messaging of the ad, and your production company doesn’t understand your campaign targeting. The result is disconnected, underperforming campaigns.
At Killerspots, the team that produces your TV commercial, streaming audio spot, display banner, social media video, or email HTML is the same team managing your campaign targeting, optimization, and reporting. Creative and media are aligned from day one — built together, optimized together, and measured together. That’s how you get ads that don’t just run. They perform.

MRC-Accredited Reporting — Real Data, Not Vanity Metrics
Every Killerspots paid media campaign includes live reporting dashboards — not monthly PDF summaries sent three weeks after the fact. CTV and streaming audio campaigns are verified by Integral Ad Science (IAS) with MRC accreditation, the most stringent measurement standard in the advertising industry.
Campaign dashboards include unified reach and frequency data, daily live performance metrics, geographic heat maps of impression distribution, performance breakdowns by creative, publisher, device, daypart, and geography — and can be customized and white-labeled for agency partners.
