With the Super Bowl behind us and the World Series a season away, March Madness is the next big viewership opportunity for marketers to create a huge splash for their brands with sports fans. Last year’s March Madness marketing stats were astonishing – 126 brands spent $1.163 billion on 30-second television spots that averaged $1.55 million each during March Madness!
