As a result, marketers are now increasingly focused on outcomes\u2014honing in not only where ads appeared and how many people saw it, but importantly, whether airings actually yield web visits that can create sales conversions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That goes double for business-to-business advertisers, who are regularly pitching products and services to a limited audience of potential buyers. For B2B brands, though, one conversion is worth far more than a single bag of chips or a can of soda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>iSpot\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispot.tv\/hub\/resources\/free-reports\/q3-2025-unified-tv-video-ad-snapshot\/\">Q3 Unified TV &amp; Video Ad Snapshot<\/a> digs into 30-day online conversion lift for B2B advertisers, highlighting how sports programming is key, even when ads are few and far between\u2014as is the case for soccer matches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hub-cdn.ispot.tv\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/10090041\/Screenshot-2025-11-10-at-10.00.23%E2%80%AFAM-1024x784.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34139\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Soccer on NBCU properties, largely English Premier League matches, converted B2B web outcomes at a higher rate than other programming in Q3, with nearly six per one thousand viewers. It\u2019s an impressive level considering the length of B2B sales cycles, but also the limited ad breaks for soccer, primarily confined to halftime and immediate postgame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sports were generally popular for B2B conversions, as eight of the top 10 programs were categorized as sports (either live or documentary). Women\u2019s sports were also particularly effective. WNBA games on Scripps properties hit 3.5 conversions per 1,000 B2B ad viewers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, B2B advertisers can also find value in non-sports programming. Q3 data shows Paramount Global popular music programming near four conversions per 1,000 B2B ad viewers. Quiz &amp; giveaway programming on TelevisaUnivision performs similarly, also showcasing the growing value of Spanish-language inventory across industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Business outcomes aren\u2019t just a nice-to-have.
