Every Brand Should Know
Navigate the evolving landscape of television advertising with our definitive 2026 guide. From classic narratives to cutting-edge interactive formats, understanding these TV commercial types is crucial for impactful brand storytelling and campaign success.
Essential TV Commercial Types for Modern Brands
A breakdown of the core TV advertising formats that drive engagement and results in 2026.
Narrative Storytelling Commercials
These classic TV commercial types build emotional connection through a structured story. IRPR Agency's narrative ads for Pune-based brands have increased recall by weaving local cultural nuances into universal themes.
Direct Response TV (DRTV) Ads
Designed for immediate action, these types of TV ads feature clear CTAs and trackable offers. Our DRTV campaigns for e-commerce clients have delivered measurable ROI through precise call-to-action strategies.
Testimonial & Case Study Commercials
Leveraging real customer stories, these TV advertising formats build trust. IRPR produces authentic testimonial videos that resonate, having featured over 200 satisfied clients from industries across Pune.
Animated & Explainer TV Ads
Ideal for simplifying complex products, these commercial video styles use motion graphics. Our animation studio creates compelling explainer TV commercials that have clarified tech offerings for startups in Hinjewadi and beyond.
Brand Image & Awareness Commercials
Focusing on values and identity rather than direct sales, these types of TV ads shape perception. IRPR's brand image campaigns have successfully launched new identities for over 50 Pune brands, enhancing market presence.
Promotional & Offer-Driven Ads
These TV commercial types highlight specific sales, events, or seasonal promotions. We craft high-impact promotional spots that have driven footfall for retail clients in areas like Kharadi and Viman Nagar.

Understanding the 15 Types of TV Commercials: A 2026 Brand Strategy Guide
In the dynamic world of advertising, television remains a powerhouse for building brand authority and reach. However, not all TV ads are created equal. Our 2026 guide on the 15 Types of TV Commercials Every Brand Should Know provides the strategic framework needed to choose the right format for your objectives. Whether you're a startup in Baner or an established enterprise in Koregaon Park, selecting the appropriate commercial video style is the first step toward campaign success.
Beyond the core narrative and direct response formats, the modern TV advertising landscape includes hybrid and digital-first types of TV ads. Think about shoppable commercials that integrate QR codes, or sequential storytelling that unfolds across multiple spots. IRPR Agency, with its technology and video production divisions, specializes in these innovative TV commercial types, blending broadcast quality with digital interactivity for brands in Pune's tech corridors like Hinjewadi and Magarpatta.
The production process for each of these TV commercial types varies significantly. A high-energy promotional ad for a retail launch in Hadapsar requires a different creative and logistical approach than a subtle, brand-building documentary-style film for a corporate client in Pimpri-Chinchwad. This is where IRPR's full-service capability shines. We manage everything from concept and scripting to filming, post-production, and media planning, ensuring your chosen TV advertising format is executed flawlessly.
Measuring the effectiveness of different TV ad types is also critical. While brand image commercials aim for lift in perception and recall, direct response TV ads are judged on immediate conversion metrics. Our data analytics team at IRPR helps Pune brands track the right KPIs for each commercial video style, providing clear insights into what's working and how to optimize future TV commercial productions for maximum return on investment.
Ultimately, mastering this spectrum of 15 TV commercial types empowers you to tell your brand's story in the most compelling way possible. It's about matching the message to the medium and the audience. As a Pune-based agency with a pan-India presence, IRPR Agency is your partner in navigating this complexity. We don't just produce ads; we craft strategic TV commercials that align with your business goals and resonate with your target demographic, wherever they are.
