Short answer
Incremental reach is the additional unique audience a channel or campaign reaches beyond people already reached by other media in the plan. Planners use it to judge whether adding a channel, such as connected TV alongside linear TV, expands the audience or simply repeats exposure to the same people, which affects efficiency and frequency.
