Increase Brand Awareness & Engagement | Increase Sales

Drive Store Visits | Increase Website Visits

1. Increase Brand Awareness

YouTube is the 2nd largest search engine and 3rd most visited site in the world. This is a double-winning strategy for brands. With over 5 billion videos viewed daily, you can reach your audience by advertising on YouTube. With such a huge user base on YouTube, it is almost a guarantee that you would find your target audience on the platform and create brand awareness among your target segment.

2. Target the right audience using Video Campaigns:

With Google Ads for YouTube, you can target your target audience based on the content that they watch. And the biggest advantage is, that there is one campaign setting where you only pay for engaged views i.e.; at least 30 seconds. This also increases your earned views and followers which increases your database and can be used for remarketing too.

3. Easy expansion to other markets:

It is unlikely that a person sitting in the opposite part of the world, looking for a similar product/service as yours find you on Google Search. But, it is quite likely possible on YouTube. As long as you speak a similar language, it is easy to get viewers from other countries who are interested in similar videos as yours.

4. Drive Engagement

With YouTube advertising, you can target your users based on the content that they watch. This makes our ad more relevant to the target audience which compels them to take action, thus increasing engagement.

5. Increase Website visits, Sales & store visits:

The video format of the ad is great in delivering the message quickly and effectively. This has proven to be efficient in delivering the right message and getting clicks – resulting in phone calls and sales.
