FAQ

Common questions about YouTube Ads.

Does YouTube Ads work for B2B?

Yes. Custom intent audiences (built from competitor search terms + URLs) deliver some of the highest-intent reach in any channel. We've run B2B YouTube for SaaS and services brands.

How much does YouTube Ads cost?

We quote YouTube Ads management after a free audit. Pricing depends on whether it is bundled with Google Ads or standalone, and how much creative production is in scope.

Do I need to produce video first?

No. We can cut your existing footage, repurpose UGC, or produce new spots. We'll tell you on the audit call whether your library is workable or whether you need a shoot.

What's the minimum YouTube Ads budget?

There is a real floor below which frequency caps starve the algorithm. We size a starting ad-spend budget after the free audit so the campaign actually has enough fuel to learn.

How does YouTube attribution work?

View-through conversions, click-through conversions, branded search lift, and brand lift surveys (eligible campaigns). We measure mid-funnel impact, not just last-click.

Can YouTube replace TV?

For most brands, yes. Better targeting, lower CPM, full attribution. We can model a side-by-side on the audit call.
