Per the guide:
YouTube is the number one platform that viewers turn to when they want to research, vet, or make a decision about a brand, product, or service.
In the U.S., 78% of viewers said YouTube had the most trusted creators for product recommendations.
In addition, 40% of YouTube video views happen more than 30 days after a video goes live.
So not only can YouTube content drive purchase decisions, but YouTube content also has a long shelf life, meaning that the best-performing clips will keep producing for brands after publishing.
In addition to these notes, YouTube said the platform also drives 86% higher incremental long-term ROAS than paid social, on average.
In order to help businesses maximize their branding efforts in the app, YouTube has also provided key stats on audience engagement, and the platform’s unique audience.
The guide also includes a basic playbook for YouTube success, based on three core growth pillars:
Bring – Adapt video ads to YouTube’s specific formatting to maximize success.
Build – Work with platform influencers to help boost awareness.
Boost – Use YouTube ads to promote content and build brand equity.
These fundamentals could help drive more growth and resonance via YouTube clips by tapping into the key influence drivers that now drive user attention and response.
