VIZIO is expanding its content offering with a new section called VIZIO Features. The section is a curated collection of content available on WatchFree+ streaming service and is based on what’s trending in specific genres including Food, Lifestyle, Movies, and more.
This new expansion of exclusive content is another way VIZIO is leveraging its unique first-party viewership data historically used to serve the most relevant ads, to now curate and deliver the most relevant programming as well
“Features is a good business model for VIZIO because it solves problems for viewers, advertisers and content partners alike,” said Steve DeMain, VP Engagement at VIZIO. “Our Features programming strategy delivers more of what our viewers love across multiple genres. And by developing these passionate audiences, we are not only building great sponsorship opportunities for brands, but we are also helping our content partners generate new revenue with VIZIO.”
In the coming months, VIZIO will expand its VIZIO Features offering with new channels and experiences focused on home & DIY, holidays, live concerts, naturescape programming, and more.
