In the run-up to summer and fall 2019, Pursuit Channel has greater engagement with its audience than one of its primary competitors, Sportsman Channel. Pursuit Channel also delivers a larger amount of unduplicated viewers than Sportsman.
“The picture at Pursuit Channel is one of growth and engagement,” said Rusty Faulk, CEO, “which is the direct result of the network’s decade-long push to provide more and more world-class programming created by this category’s best-in-class independent producers.
“The first part of our maxim to producers and manufacturers, ‘More Viewers for Less Money’, probably needs an update. ‘More engaged viewers’ is now the sharper accuracy,” Faulk said.
During the first quarter of 2019, January through March, using the six-minute qualifier, the Pursuit Channel delivered 5.006 million impressions to Sportsman Channel’s 3.6 million, with Pursuit leading in household reach by nearly 700,000.*
