The campaign demonstrates how a unified approach to total video can help brands maximise brand visibility and reach while better understanding campaign performance across linear TV and streaming.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Australia\u2019s fitness industry currently supports <a href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/statistics\/505441\/australia-gym-and-fitness-centers\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">more than 7,300 registered gym and fitness facilities<\/a>,<a href=\"https:\/\/worldmetrics.org\/australian-fitness-industry-statistics\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> serving roughly 15% of the population<\/a> through active memberships. As Australians continue to split their viewing across linear TV and streaming, however, fitness brands \u2013 including Anytime Fitness \u2013 face increasing pressure to reach highly targeted audiences, while accurately measuring campaign performance.<\/p>\n<p>By leveraging Nexxen\u2019s proprietary insights tool, Nexxen Discovery, Anytime Fitness gained deeper insights into behaviours, interests and viewing habits of health and fitness audiences. These insights informed audience activation across broadcast video-on-demand (\u201cBVOD\u201d), Free Ad-Supported Streaming TV (\u201cFAST\u201d) and online video (\u201cOLV\u201d), enabling the campaign to reach and retarget relevant viewers, including those who had previously engaged with the brand through its creative or website.<\/p>\n<p>Nexxen also utilised its unique automatic content recognition (\u201cACR\u201d) data to identify and activate viewers of sports, health, fitness and lifestyle content in BVOD, enabling Anytime Fitness to align messaging with actual TV viewing behaviour.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, the campaign achieved:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 37M total deduplicated household reach<br \/>\n\u2022 13M total user reach<br \/>\n\u2022 5K incremental streaming household reach<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday\u2019s consumers are engaging with media across more platforms than ever before, making it increasingly challenging for fitness and wellness brands to build broad awareness while ensuring every advertising dollar works harder,\u201d says Billie Hutchison (left), Marketing Lead at Anytime Fitness Australia. \u201cBy combining Involved Media\u2019s strategic approach with Nexxen\u2019s audience intelligence and cross-screen measurement capabilities, we gained a much clearer view of our campaign\u2019s true reach and the incremental value streaming delivered.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur objective was to build a true Total Video brand campaign that reflected how Australians actually consume media today,\u201d says Saffron Carter (centre), Strategy Director, Involved Media Australia. \u201cRather than planning linear TV and streaming in isolation, we used Nexxen\u2019s audience intelligence and cross-screen measurement to understand where incremental audiences existed and how to reach them efficiently. The results showed the value of measuring a Total Video campaign across linear and streaming together. Importantly, the results demonstrated the incremental reach effectiveness of a multi-screen strategy designed to target audiences with known diverse viewing behaviours.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe biggest opportunity for advertisers today isn\u2019t simply investing in more channels, it\u2019s understanding how those channels work together,\u201d says Rebecca Taylor (right), Sales Director, Nexxen. \u201cAs viewing behaviour continues to fragment across broadcast and streaming environments, marketers and advertisers need a unified approach to audience intelligence, activation and measurement. This campaign demonstrates how Total Video enables brands to maximise incremental reach, reduce duplication and make smarter planning and investment decisions based on a complete picture of campaign performance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bestadsontv.us1.list-manage.com\/subscribe\/post?u=ed15a80d7bf550af3872a36b1&amp;id=fbbdec6d80\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Register for FREE HERE<\/a> and receive the Campaign Brief Daily Bulletin and\/or the global Best Ads Best of the Week Bulletin. \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/campaignbrief.partica.online\/campaign-brief-magazine\/campaign-brief-australia-summer-2025\/flipbook\/0\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Subscribe to Campaign Brief Magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>#More Creative News\u00a0\u00a0 #No paywalls\u00a0\u00a0 #No annual membership fees<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.portfolioandreel.com\/shop\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Subscribe to Portfolio &amp; Reel<\/a> for current listings of Australian and NZ ad agency and production company leadership and key personnel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"August 18 2026, 6:09 pm | BY Ricki Green | No Comments Partner content \u2013 Nexxen, the advertising&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":859628,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[64,63,105],"class_list":["post-859627","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/859627","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=859627"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/859627\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/859628"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=859627"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=859627"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=859627"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
