What competitors are doing

Q1 2026 JustWatch data cited in one source puts Netflix ahead in US streaming share, with Prime Video and Disney+ behind, and Prime Video leading in some markets such as Italy and Brazil. An eMarketer report sizes Netflix's global audience for 2026. The sources say little about rival marketing and nothing useful on YouTube.

3 ideas you could pitch ✦ AI Insight

Borrow Starbucks' barista-creator idea: let writers, editors and crew run behind-the-scenes accounts with creator-platform support.
Prime Video is gaining through aggressive content buying, so Netflix could make its yearly 'What Next' prediction format a recurring ritual that rivals can't copy.
Test a weekly fan-reaction series on TikTok that uses real audience clips with the creators' permission.

Smart questions to ask them ✦ AI Insight

How do you judge a slate campaign's success beyond first-week impressions?

How do you keep dozens of social accounts in one voice?

Heads up. The headline metrics come from a collaborator's LinkedIn post, so they are self-reported. Many sources are marketing blogs or a student thesis, and I did not check Netflix's Q3 2026 earnings.
