Television advertising has grown to become a major industry globally. The first TV ads aired in the US in 1941 and UK in 1955, promoting watches and toothpaste, respectively. In India, the first TV ad was in 1978 for Gwalior Suiting. Today, TV advertising accounts for 38% of the global ad market share and is projected to grow 16.8% annually in India. Common formats include animations, documentaries using real people, and talking heads or series of ads to promote a brand. Ads typically run from 30-50 seconds and air most frequently between 5-7pm to target kids.
