Agency leaders explored how premium video environments such as <strong>Prime Video<\/strong> can help brands build awareness and consideration, while connecting with audiences further along the purchase journey.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For agencies managing multiple brands during the festive period, the discussions also highlighted the opportunity to use video and other media solutions more strategically: <strong>reaching audiences at scale, building precision into campaigns and connecting brand-building with measurable outcomes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The conversations come as festive shopping journeys become increasingly considered. <strong>Amazon Ads&#8217; recent consumer study found that 56% of shoppers spend more time researching during the festive season<\/strong>, with consumers encountering <strong>more than eight touchpoints before making a purchase<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>HIVE<\/strong> provided an opportunity for agency leaders to take these shifts from consumer insight to practical media conversations, sharing experiences and exploring how evolving video and full-funnel approaches can help brands make the most of the festive opportunity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>four-city Amazon Ads Hive Partner Connect series<\/strong> brought together professionals from leading agencies and brands, creating a forum for discussions around <strong>media innovation, measurement and the changing role of video in brand growth<\/strong>.
