Kasim:

Recently we had a discussion where we were talking about YouTube

2

:

and YouTube ad, what do you call it?

3

:

Brand campaign.

4

:

So can someone explain to me why

we essentially always kind of need

5

:

a brand campaign with whether it

be shop or I guess search or both

6

:

when we're running YouTube ads?

7

:

Why do we want it there?

8

:

What's the reason for it?

9

:

I wish I could show you with examples,

but I couldn't find an example.

10

:

Because it was more of like a

personal client that has the

11

:

example so I can show that.

12

:

And when we talk to another,

hopefully it'll make sense.

13

:

So why do we want a brand

campaign along with YouTube?

14

:

Always.

15

:

Mike, are we closed off?

16

:

Yeah, sorry, sorry, sorry.

17

:

No, you go Vivek.

18

:

I've got an idea, but you go first mate.

19

:

Might be because of brand recall,

like people are viewing our ad and

20

:

going on Google typing the brand name.

21

:

That's part of it.

22

:

What do you got Glenn?

23

:

you would create a video uh,

uh, an audience of people

24

:

who watched a video as an ad.

25

:

And then you could put that audience

in observation mode in a brand

26

:

campaign to perhaps see if people

who watched the video converted.

27

:

No, not really.

28

:

So, do you know how YouTube...

29

:

I'm thinking I'm right, though.

30

:

You wouldn't do that?

31

:

No, there's an easier way to measure it.

32

:

And you'll understand.

33

:

You'll be like, what?

34

:

Colby, you got any ideas?

35

:

It's probably similar to vex.

36

:

I just think you run brand because

your youtube's is your typically

37

:

your top of funnel and Attributions

pretty shitty anyways, so people are

38

:

probably gonna search you afterwards.

39

:

It's accurate But a lot of the times

we have plants that are like we

40

:

don't want it because we're already

standing first top organically So why

41

:

would we I guess bid on brand right?

42

:

So the logic realistically behind

is YouTube's new conversion

43

:

action or ad event type, which is

engaged views essentially, right?

44

:

What's the concept behind engaged views?

45

:

It's that you see an ad, then click it,

go buy it somewhere else, come to it,

46

:

search it, go to the website and buy it.

47

:

Right?

48

:

Right.

49

:

So when someone watches a YouTube ad,

let's say you're watching a YouTube ad

50

:

for something like, I don't know, someone

giving a Dell laptop or something.

51

:

I don't know why I always go to

Dell, but like a Dell laptop.

52

:

Right.

53

:

And then you're like, Oh, I feel

like a price point for that.

54

:

Someone give me something cheaper.

55

:

McDonald's coffee, air purifier.

56

:

Yeah.

57

:

Let's say you're buying, let's say you

watch an ad for an air purifier ad.

58

:

Essentially.

59

:

Right.

60

:

You're you don't click the ad, but then

you search the branding or you go to the

61

:

website directly, whatever right or in

our scenario Let's just say you search

62

:

for the brand name and then you click the

brand term the branded ad campaign, right?

63

:

So what happens that YouTube ad

gets a quote unquote engaged view?

64

:

Conversion as well as a brand campaign

getting some conversion event or

65

:

some conversion value to it, right?

66

:

So what did that engage to view conversion

actually do to that YouTube campaign

67

:

created the awareness Created the

awareness it gave youtube a signal like

68

:

it helped it learn like this is where my

audience is This is where we want to go

69

:

This is where we're getting a convergence

from right if we did not have that brand

70

:

conversion essentially and it came back

organically We probably wouldn't would

71

:

have missed that tracking completely

for that conversion completely Right,

72

:

so our YouTube would probably suck.

73

:

John essentially ran a test where

he turned off the brand campaign.

74

:

And kept his youtube live his overall

account performance Fell 34 in the span of

75

:

14 days Fell 30 Yeah fell 30 all because

he turned up a brand campaigns and it's

76

:

all because youtube was kind of going

down Maybe it wasn't immediately after 14

77

:

days, but over a duration because of those

a lag that follows But over a duration

78

:

of time he saw it fall around 30 Right.

79

:

in theory we're in thought processes and

I wish I could show you the example, but

80

:

I don't know where it is It makes sense.

81

:

Let's say someone has watched a

YouTube video and if that person is

82

:

converting from any other channel

later, so in that case, YouTube

83

:

won't found it in this conversion.

84

:

Yeah, if it's not coming through

as a paid conversion after.

85

:

We probably won't get the conversion.

86

:

Like it's more likely that we'll miss it

when it comes to something like direct.

87

:

But if it comes to like a brand

campaign after technically we got the

88

:

conversion, YouTube, Google should

be able to connect their back and

89

:

be like, this is an engaged view.

90

:

Let's give 0.

91

:

5 to the brand campaign, 0.

92

:

5 to YouTube, something like that.
