    Today is the day! Roku Ads Manager is now available to everyone 🚀 Do you think this is a big deal? Here’s why I think it is 👇 There are no minimum spends, and anyone can sign up and launch campaigns on TV, same day. By launching a self-service ads manager, we are opening the door for performance minded marketers to usher in the future of CTV. I got to have a front row seat to this moment in mobile advertising, and I can’t wait to see how this plays out in streaming. I am most proud that this is fully built in-house, allowing us to iterate quickly, making rapid improvements for marketers. We have already come so far in our Beta this past year, launching amazing audience, reporting, measurement, and interactive features. In fact, you’ll see some industry firsts. For example, we have taken our partnership with Shopify to the next level by letting merchants connect their accounts with Roku Ads Manager and actually launch shoppable campaigns, completely self-service. Consumers can press OK on their Roku remote to make purchases on screen. And again, there is no upcharge or minimum required. Marketers are going to find this Ads Manager to be the most efficient way to access CTV through what is very familiar setting, full stop. This release comes after many long, hard days and nights from Roku product, engineering, and marketing teams. Major congrats to Andrew Derkach Dan Lapinski Michael LaFond Matt Reid Ria Singh Jonathan Kriner Nafis Ahmad John Skolfield Harman Stinson Edsel D. And many many more. Special thanks to Louqman Parampath for carrying the torch for this product, blazing a path for investment and prioritization.

    Congrats to all of the teams who helped launch Kalley Roku TVs in Colombia! 🇨🇴 We are so excited to be further expanding our reach in Latin America. #WeAreRoku 📺

    Um evento é sempre a materialização de muito esforço. Esforço que começa, lá atrás, com um e-mail de interesse. E que, a depender de um interesse mútuo, continua com outros e-mails, telefonemas, encontros virtuais e pessoais, whatsapps. Mais pessoas vão embarcando e as ideias vão fluindo, até que chega o momento de transformar energia em estratégia, contribuição em planejamento e todos os esforços em ação. O alinhamento desses elementos - e, por que não, dos astros - vimos em Bogotá na última semana ao lançar nossa primeira linha de Roku TVs. Na Colômbia já ocupamos uma posição de liderança com os dispositivos de streaming e agora estamos chegando com o sistema operacional Roku embarcado em televisores fabricados pela Kalley, marca própria do maior grupo de varejo local. Já o evento… Do alto de um edifício excelentemente bem localizado, com uma vista privilegiada da cidade, apresentamos as novas Kalley Roku TVs para uma plateia de mais de 200 pessoas, entre jornalistas, criadores de conteúdo digital, influenciadores, celebridades, compradores, varejistas e parceiros. Este foi um lindo começo para uma caminhada na Colômbia que já tem planejadas suas próximas aventuras. Por ora, ainda são segredo, mas aguardem porque em breve vem muito mais. #RokuTV #RokuTeam #StreamingParaTodos An event is always the materialization of many efforts. Efforts that usually begin with an email months before. And depending on whether the interest is mutual, it continues with tons of emails, phone calls, virtual and in-person meetings, whatsapps. More people get involved, and ideas start flowing, until we reach the moment to turn energy into strategy, contribution into planning, and effort into action. The conjunction of all these elements–and perhaps the alignment of the stars–came together in Bogotá last week when we launched the first Roku TV models. In Colombia, we already hold a leading position with Roku streaming players, and now, for the first time ever, we are introducing TVs powered by the Roku OS with Kalley. Kalley is the house brand of the largest retail group in Colombia. As for the event... From the 21st floor of a beautifully located building, with a privileged view of the city, we presented the new Kalley Roku TVs to an audience of 200+ people, including journalists, digital content creators, influencers, celebrities, buyers, retailers, and business partners. This was a brilliant beginning to a journey that already has its next adventures planned. For now, I'll keep them secret. Stay tuned! None of this would have been possible without the ideas, pushes, energy, time and obviously efforts of Benjamin Garnica, Juan Pablo Caruso, Luis Bianchi, Alex Dalesio, Adriana de la Espriella, Ana Cecilia Cuevas, Jessica Salamanca, Adriana Naves, Sebastian Arciniegas, Pedro Valery, Amar Bhayani, Tom McFarland. You witnessed this great Roku milestone in Latin America. To the many teammates who couldn’t attend but hugely contributed, thank you!
