Balanced competition—top 5 each control 5-10%. Morgan is present but not dominant. CTV can build household recognition in a market where no one owns the airwaves.
The firms winning in CTV aren't competing for the same broadcast spots. They're building presence where the audience actually is—and measuring what works.
In a $2.1M/month market:
•
The top spender controls 10% of voice
•
5 firms control 34% of total spend
•
66% is fragmented across dozens of advertisers
•
Most are fighting for the same broadcast inventory
A CTV-first strategy in Baltimore means:
→
Reaching injury-likely households — ER visits, urgent care, collision signals — not "Adults 25-54"
→
Tracking what matters — site visits from our audience pool, calls from your website, calls directly from the ad via CallRail
→
Staying visible from living room to phone — CTV in the living room, retargeting on social, branded search when they're ready. Same audience, every touchpoint.
→
Exclusive access — your competitors can't buy into the same audience pool. You're in, they're out.
We'll show you your realistic reach and frequency, investment scenarios, and how to build presence without competing on CPM.
