Second screen use does not always work as well as social TV stations want

Motto: Tussi Alert In a recent broadcast of “Brain + Buddy” must be a young man with red lipstick on her face even the legs depilate. With wax strips. Ouch. The format will be broadcast in the program of Joiz Germany, an interactive social television channel, the TV for all under 30 makes. The program encourages viewers to participate actively on the second screen, so for example on the screen of their smartphones Comment seen before.

However, social television in the past has arrived not good. In the summer, the German Social-TV channels Tunedin and Zapitano reported in quick succession to insolvency. The reason: The second-screen market has not developed as expected. Joiz Germany also did not work: The station became insolvent December 2014. Apparently, the parent company of Joiz Germany does not want the program will also pursue the contrary. The Swiss Joiz Group is now rather on their newly established technology division Joiz Global. The other television stations to sell marketing tools for social television

.

As a result, Joiz used partly based on their core business from. Although the Social TV stations in Switzerland seems to be working, but the insolvent German subsidiary has now radically reduce their team.
