CHANTILLY, Va. - According to BIA/Kelsey’s Media Ad View Plus forecast, automotive and financial/insurance advertising in local media channels is growing steadily. BIA/Kelsey, adviser to companies in the local media space, expects the total local ad spend for the automotive sector will grow from $16.1 billion in 2012 to $17.5 billion in 2017, increasing its share of online advertising from 7.4 percent to 12 percent, and its mobile advertising from 0.5 percent to 4.4 percent in that same timeframe.

“Our clients have told us that the key value of Media Ad View Plus is that it allows them to review the state of their market in one place”
As reported in March in our U.S. Local Media Forecast (2012-2017), BIA/Kelsey expects the overall local ad market will climb from $132.5 billion in 2012 to $148.8 billion by 2017. To supplement the forecast and offer a more detailed picture of advertising trends and competitive market intelligence, the firm is now releasing its Media Ad View Plus forecast that offers both a local and a national comparative forecast that allows businesses to evaluate market opportunities across multiple dimensions: local markets, media and business categories.
“The local media market continues to experience positive growth as media buyers look both locally and nationally to identify the right mix of traditional and digital channels for reaching local targets,” said Dr. Mark Fratrik, vice president and chief economist, BIA/Kelsey. “Online and mobile continues to be the top growing ad channels. By 2017, the real estate business category will increase its online ad spend to an astonishing 40.8 percent and automotive dealers will focus on video, spending 11.4 percent of their $2.4 billion online ad budget on video display.”
Other findings from the Media Ad View Plus forecast reveal that by 2017 online’s share of real estate advertising will grow by nearly 18 percent and that the quick service restaurant category (subset of restaurants) will increase its online spending from $434.4 million to $618.6 million.
“Our clients have told us that the key value of Media Ad View Plus is that it allows them to review the state of their market in one place,” said Fratrik. “By expanding the data in Media Ad View Plus, we are giving our clients a comprehensive snapshot of the activity in their local markets so they can decisively identify trends, revenue opportunities and competitors in an interactive format in order to develop justifiable budgets, targeted sales strategies and make informed board and sales presentations.”
