Week 15 Delivers Third Consecutive All Time High Rating at 48 GRP
MUMBAI and TORONTO, April 22, 2021 /CNW/ - QYOU Media Inc. (TSXV: QYOU) (OTCQB: QYOUF) has announced that The Q India, the company's Hindi language youth oriented channel available in over 100 million TV households and to over 612 million OTT and mobile users in India, has reported the addition of Unilever and Wipro, two of the world's largest Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) companies as new advertising partners on The Q India. Current campaigns will feature a wide variety of consumer products and brands including Dove, Vaseline, Lipton, Ponds and Santoor.
Unilever is consistently ranked as one of the Top 10 FMCG companies in the world and is number one in India. Wipro recently cracked the top ten in India on the strength of its flagship product line Santoor. The advertising campaigns will benefit from the high viewership levels recently reached by The Q India which in the third week of April recorded its third consecutive week of record ratings with 48.07 Gross Rating Points (GRP) as measured by BARC (Broadcast Audience Research Council...the "Nielsen of India".) With the addition of PepsiCo last week and now Unilever and Wipro, the company has secured many of the most important FMCG companies in India as advertisers.
The Q India continues to benefit from a dramatic increase in interest from advertisers and brands due the unprecedented ratings growth achieved throughout 2021 and accelerated in the last several weeks that has led to The Q India becoming the leading and fastest growing channel targeting a Young India demographic. In Week 15 the company continued to build on its consistent base of viewers who recorded an average per session Time Spent Viewing (TSV) of 110 minutes.
Curt Marvis, QYOU Media CEO and Co-Founder added, "We are thrilled to be onboarding new advertising giants that are choosing The Q as a home for their products and brands. People in North America may know Unilever via brands like Ben & Jerry's and Axe and in India they have become the number one leader in consumer products sales across the board. These are critical relationships for us to nurture and cultivate as we solidify our audience and work to offer our ad partners the ability to reach the challenging Gen-Z and young millennial consumer. We are building audience loyalty and growing revenue across all areas of the business and 2021 promises to be a breakout year for our channel and India business."
