Brand advertising can use AI technology to automatically identify the scenes that can be implanted in the video that has been filmed, and after post-processing, the brand ideas can be implanted into the specific scenes. The display area, duration and location of the brand creativity can be automatically adapted to specific scenes and displayed in the video without obstruction to ensure natural brand creativity.
Key Features:
Post-placement ads
Automatically recognize scenes and form adjustments
Batch identification and large-scale implantation
Support agile optimization
Ensure the quantitative effect through scientific design and real material measurement
Third-party agencies can use advertising monitoring technology to complete implanted advertising monitoring, gather the effects of exposure and other effects, and perform a combined evaluation with other advertising forms
The new consumer brand marketing model breaks the mass production followed by mature brands. The Miaozhen marketing team analyzed and observed more than 200 new consumer brands, and finally ended three key stages: the initial stage, the development stage, and the growth stage.

In the initial stage, the goal of the brand is to survive, and the marketing strategy is mainly to promote, such as content seeding, drainage of public domains and conversion of private domains.
In the development period, the goal of the brand is to become popular. There are multiple forms of promotion strategies, such as “video streaming” to bring goods, using more marketing touchpoints, and linking up.
From the period of development to growth, the short-term survival of the brand is no longer a problem. The problem is how to maintain sustained growth. Brands have begun to establish cultural barriers in their marketing strategies to increase public domain penetration.
Current Challenges for brand advertising:
The mobile phone penetration rate is 99.7%, and there is no more room for growth.
The expansion of the membership scale has led to a reduction in the inventory of advertisements for members. As the mainstream traffic of advertising brands, the share of traffic in video media (not including short video) advertising has fallen.
Online video is still one of the cores of Chinese market traffic.
In 2021, most advertisers will focus on content marketing investment, with drama series being the focus of the investment.
Classic content + innovative themes keep China’s online video drama synthesis market alive, and innovative IPs continue to incubate.
