Parks Associates: Average Household Spending on Subscription OTT Streaming Services has Held Steady for the Past Three YearsDALLAS, March 20, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Parks Associates' OTT video research finds household spending on subscription OTT video services has held steady for three years, averaging just under $8 per month since 2016. Given the growing adoption of OTT video services over the past three years, these figures suggest that adoption of multiple services or expensive services by some consumers is offset by a larger base of consumers who either subscribe to one or two relatively inexpensive services, including 30 percent of consumers who do not spend any money on OTT video services. Parks Associates will discuss strategies to launch successful services in the complimentary webcast "Avoiding OTT's Top 5 Mistakes," co-hosted with Swrve on Tuesday, March 26, at 11:00 A.M. CT. "The stability in average household spend belies the activity going on under the surface," said Brett Sappington, Senior Director of Research, Parks Associates. "2019 may be poised to break that trend. Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon continue to pack on new subscribers. At the same time, services like ESPN+ are also experiencing phenomenal growth, and new offerings from Disney and WarnerMedia are set for release later this summer. One of three things will happen—more households will become OTT streaming households, rival services will begin to pull subscribers away from Netflix, or that spending number will go up. " The webcast will identify the top five mistakes that OTT providers can make when planning, designing, and deploying their services. Sappington and Nolan will discuss strategies for companies to overcome challenges related to churn, marketing, and content and service offerings. Webcast Topics:
