Why YouTube

Video Reaches Buyers Before They Search

A buyer may watch your video on YouTube today and search for your brand next week. YouTube campaigns do one of two jobs: reach and recall, with in-stream, bumper and Shorts ads, or action, with Demand Gen campaigns that send viewers to your site. Primal plans each campaign for one job, with the video length each placement needs, measures it on the result that job should bring, and checks the change in searches for your brand that follows.

What We Do

What Our YouTube Advertising Services Cover

Our YouTube work has 6 parts. The plan sets which come first for your brand.

  • In-Stream AdsAds that play before, during or after other videos, skippable after 5 seconds or non-skippable, chosen by what the campaign needs.
  • Shorts AdsVertical video ads between Shorts on phones, for brands whose buyers watch short video.
  • Bumper AdsAds of 6 seconds or less that cannot be skipped, used to repeat one message to people who have seen a longer ad.
  • Demand Gen CampaignsVideo and image ads on YouTube, Discover and Gmail with a link to your site, with bidding set toward leads or purchases.
  • Audience TargetingCustomer lists, people who watched your videos or visited your site, in-market and custom segments, and the channels and topics your buyers watch.
  • MeasurementViews, view rate, reach and frequency, conversions and return on ad spend (ROAS), with Brand Lift studies where the budget qualifies, reported against the targets in the plan.

FAQ

Your YouTube Advertising Questions Answered

How do I choose a YouTube ads agency?

Ask how the agency matches each video to a format, how it measures results beyond views, and which campaigns it can show with figures. Check its Google partner status as well. Primal is a Google Premier Partner.

Do I need new videos to advertise on YouTube?

Your existing brand or product videos can often run as in-stream ads, with shorter cuts for bumper and Shorts placements. We review the videos you have and say which formats they fit and what is missing.

How are YouTube ads in Malaysia reported?

Each report shows views, view rate, reach and frequency, clicks and conversions, and the change in searches for your brand where it can be measured, against the targets in the plan.

How long until YouTube ads show results?

Reach and view campaigns deliver as soon as the ads are approved. Demand Gen and other conversion campaigns need several weeks of conversion data for bidding to settle, and a steady cost per lead usually takes a few months of video and audience tests.

Can YouTube ads run with our Google Search campaigns?

Yes. Primal runs YouTube, Search and Performance Max (PMax) in one plan, so people who watched your video can be shown your search ads, and the budget split follows the results.
