Minneapolis TV Viewership

Minneapolis viewers are among the most tech-savvy in the Midwest, with streaming adoption rates well above national averages. While Vikings and Timberwolves games remain broadcast draws, research shows 71% of Minneapolis adults now watch more streaming content than traditional television, with particularly high streaming rates among the 25-54 demographic.

This creates a critical gap for Minneapolis advertisers: your customers have redistributed their attention across numerous streaming services while most local advertising remains concentrated on diminishing broadcast audiences. Our data indicates Minneapolis consumers now spend approximately 3.9 hours daily with streaming content compared to just 1.4 hours with traditional television, yet local ad spending hasn't adjusted accordingly.

How We Make CTV
Advertising Work in Minneapolis

icon (7)

Smarter Targeting Than Broadcast

Instead of blanketing everyone with your message, we help you reach the people most likely to need your product or service based on their behaviors, interests, and online activity.

Yes, We Still Geotarget

Just like local TV, we can target by city, zip code, or DMA. But we take it a step further by narrowing in on actual households that match your ideal customer profile.

We Follow Up on Every Screen

After someone sees your ad on TV, we follow up across their phone, tablet, and computer so your message doesn’t stop when the commercial ends.

Smarter Spend, Not Bigger Budgets.

By focusing your ad dollars on the right viewers — not just the right ZIP codes — we help you get more from your budget, without wasting impressions on the wrong audience.

Strategus has been an excellent partner. Their outstanding customer service and communication made working with them a breeze. They constantly delivered what we needed (and more) with thoughtfulness and efficiency, making them a valuable partner in our digital media endeavors.

Minneapolis's unique market dynamics, including its Fortune 500 density, highly educated workforce, and extreme seasonal shifts, require sophisticated marketing approaches. Our research shows Minneapolis consumers typically need 8-10 quality brand interactions before conversion, particularly for major purchases.

Our sequential messaging strategy addresses this pattern by coordinating ads across all devices within target households. After seeing your commercial while streaming content at their Linden Hills home, a prospect might receive related messaging on their phone during lunch at the North Loop, then on their tablet while relaxing at Lake Harriet.

For commuters, reinforcement ads might appear during drives along I-35W or I-394. This coordinated approach surrounds potential customers with consistent messaging throughout their Minneapolis routines, delivering conversion rates that consistently outperform traditional broadcast campaigns by 200-300%.

Your Audience Isn’t Just Watching Local TV

Minneapolis's diverse communities, from young professionals in the North Loop to families in Edina to healthcare workers near the University, have embraced personalized streaming experiences that traditional TV simply cannot match.

 

Instead of arranging their evenings around the programming schedules of KSTP ABC 5, WCCO CBS 4, KMSP FOX 9, KARE NBC 11, or WUCW CW 23, they're selecting content that precisely matches their interests and lifestyles. Strategus connects your business with these engaged viewers across 200+ premium streaming platforms, ensuring your message appears alongside relevant, high-quality content wherever your ideal Minneapolis customers are watching.
