Video is an incredibly effective advertising tool, especially for those looking to engage younger generations. In fact, members of Gen Z stream an average of 23 hours of video each week and YouTube topped teens’ online landscape in 2022. Learn more about why YouTube is one of the best digital campus advertising platforms today.
YouTube is a great channel to create awareness and find leads at a price that works for you. You can set a monthly budget cap, and pause or adjust anytime you need to. In addition to setting your maximum overall spend, you can use bids to set the most you’ll pay for an ad to appear. Whether you are looking to optimize for views, impressions, or conversions, there are a variety of bidding strategies to help you reach your goals.
“Online video is the Swiss army knife of internet marketing. It really can be used all over the customer lifecycle, whether it’s customer service, marketing, or even recruitment."
– MARK ROBERTSON
In addition to running a paid YouTube ad campaign, you can create a free YouTube channel to engage with your community and attract new leads. Well-produced and informative videos convey volumes about your product, service or program. And online videos are easily shared via social media.
The numbers don’t lie - YouTube marketing is worth the investment.
With today’s digital technology, anyone can easily create and upload videos to YouTube. For best results, we recommend working with an experienced partner to create marketing videos and run your YouTube campus advertising campaign.
