WEBVTT

00:00.180 --> 00:00.900
In this video.

00:00.900 --> 00:02.970
I just want to finish up creating that.

00:02.970 --> 00:07.440
And in for this particular video, I'm going to use a different example of a song.

00:08.040 --> 00:09.080
Why is that of a song?

00:09.090 --> 00:11.930
Because it's actually going to help us do some copywriting.

00:11.940 --> 00:13.770
So I'm going to paste the oral of the song.

00:14.160 --> 00:19.770
And let's say it's an infinite video ad like from Search, and you'll see it's going to give us three

00:19.890 --> 00:21.270
fields to fill out.

00:21.510 --> 00:29.100
But the thing is that we don't need all three fields because you can choose under additional settings

00:29.370 --> 00:30.390
devices.

00:30.660 --> 00:37.470
And sometimes if you set specific targeting devices on mobile phones, if you take out all of these

00:37.530 --> 00:42.420
computers, tablets, TV screens and you're left with mobile phones, then you know what?

00:42.420 --> 00:49.950
Not all of these show up because you can actually play around over here and see how your ad will appear

00:49.950 --> 00:51.120
on a desktop computer.

00:51.120 --> 00:53.340
You see the descriptions, actually.

00:53.580 --> 00:57.360
Description, line one appears, description, line two appears versus on the phone.

00:57.930 --> 01:04.710
You're only going to have showing the name of your channel and the headline.

01:05.250 --> 01:12.660
So depending on where you plan to place your ads, like on which devices, then you have to make a distinction

01:12.660 --> 01:16.410
of where you put the most exciting and important part of your ad.

01:16.740 --> 01:20.700
Usually in either case, the headline is still the most important.

01:21.180 --> 01:27.240
So in this particular case, usually I actually struggle with naming my songs that I make.

01:27.450 --> 01:31.740
But this song probably has the best name of a song that I ever made caused by a song.

01:32.130 --> 01:34.260
So actually this is a really good example.

01:34.860 --> 01:40.710
And what I would do is actually I would just say song because otherwise it's very confusing.

01:40.710 --> 01:43.980
Like, is this ad about a song or is it a song or whatever?

01:44.340 --> 01:46.470
So maybe like that.

01:46.470 --> 01:52.170
Or maybe I would put it into parentheses so people understand it's a song, you know, has a song in

01:52.170 --> 01:52.800
the title.

01:52.990 --> 01:56.070
It's a little confusing, unfortunately, but here's the best song.

01:56.070 --> 01:56.700
That's cool.

01:57.150 --> 02:00.720
It might be confusing when you first hear it, like, What is that?

02:00.900 --> 02:05.820
But then when you think about it a little bit, it kind of has an effect of growing on you once you

02:05.880 --> 02:11.670
start picturing it and imagining it and the descriptions, if you plan to advertise on the phone, they're

02:11.670 --> 02:12.540
not too important.

02:13.020 --> 02:20.640
But if you plan to advertise on devices and placements where they're visible, what I would recommend

02:20.640 --> 02:26.430
as a strategy is not to be too salesy, but to be genuine and humble.

02:26.430 --> 02:34.140
Because in my case, when I promoted some songs as a test, you know, experimentation and I was saying

02:34.560 --> 02:38.520
This song is amazing, is the best love song ever or whatever, like something like that.

02:39.330 --> 02:47.970
The viewers actually had their expectations raised so high that I was getting a lot of thumbs down.

02:48.480 --> 02:54.690
But when I started writing more humble descriptions because, you know, when people see an ad, they're

02:54.690 --> 02:57.060
immediately more skeptical to the ad.

02:57.330 --> 03:02.610
You need to be better and earn more trust quickly than if they clicked on an organic result.

03:03.090 --> 03:09.750
So when I used to write something like, Please take a listen to this new song or something like that,

03:09.750 --> 03:16.380
when I was just genuine being me, kind of like as an amateur musician, I was getting more thumbs up,

03:16.380 --> 03:19.320
which is obviously nicer for the YouTube algorithm.

03:19.830 --> 03:21.930
And of course, last word of caution.

03:22.260 --> 03:29.520
You should experiment running these ads on a channel on which you may not care about engagement too

03:29.520 --> 03:29.850
much.

03:29.850 --> 03:33.480
Because imagine if you run these ads and you pick like the wrong demographic.

03:33.480 --> 03:38.160
And the demographic like watch is only like 5% of your video and they hate it and you get a bunch of

03:38.160 --> 03:38.760
thumbs down.

03:39.120 --> 03:43.050
Well, okay, you can take the video down and relaunch it, but what happens if you do that again?

03:43.050 --> 03:48.210
You cannot keep doing that on the main channel that you have because your existing audience will get

03:48.210 --> 03:50.070
sick of relaunches of the same video.

03:50.490 --> 03:57.420
So a lot of channels, what they do is they have a secondary channel where they run ad experiments.

03:57.420 --> 04:03.030
And if it so happens that your ad just doesn't perform and you cannot figure out a format for your ad

04:03.030 --> 04:09.480
to perform, and it creates terrible metrics for your videos like very low engagement, thumbs down,

04:09.480 --> 04:10.290
all those things.

04:10.890 --> 04:14.610
It would just destroy the video in the algorithm of YouTube.

04:14.910 --> 04:18.630
Then maybe you don't want to promote with ads on your main channel.

04:18.930 --> 04:26.670
So that's the strategy for one, warming up your audience, but also to not ruining your main channel

04:26.670 --> 04:32.580
with low engagement and not having your main video have bad engagement metrics with YouTube.

04:33.180 --> 04:37.560
And of course, when you click Create Campaign, it will wait a little bit.

04:37.950 --> 04:43.290
There's a little bit of an approval process on YouTube and generally speaking, within the same day,

04:43.290 --> 04:48.960
in most cases, unless there's something wrong, if nothing is wrong in most cases on YouTube, they'll

04:48.960 --> 04:49.380
approve it.

04:49.380 --> 04:53.790
And then you can just monitor the results, which you should be doing daily, and you should be checking

04:54.330 --> 04:59.370
both your analytics on YouTube and also your ad analytics, which is going to.

04:59.770 --> 05:00.490
You know, a peer here.

05:00.490 --> 05:06.610
So like if you go to Google ads and you say, leave this, and then if you go to your campaign, some

05:06.610 --> 05:07.750
kind of an ad campaign.

05:07.750 --> 05:12.280
So we'll go to campaigns, then we'll click on campaigns, then that is all.

05:12.280 --> 05:19.900
And then let's say we find used by a song, which is an old ad I ran for the song, and so I ran a couple

05:19.900 --> 05:20.920
of experiments, you see.

05:21.490 --> 05:26.020
And then you can see that when I click on it, you see the engagement.

05:26.230 --> 05:29.200
You see, I spent some money, I got some engagement.

05:29.680 --> 05:31.480
Then you can check on YouTube analytics.

05:32.080 --> 05:33.340
Did I bring subscribers?

05:33.340 --> 05:34.240
Did I bring views?

05:34.360 --> 05:35.230
I bring thumbs up.

05:35.230 --> 05:37.180
What was the view rate?

05:37.480 --> 05:39.340
And if it's any good, you keep going with it.

05:39.550 --> 05:41.020
If it's not good, you pause.

05:41.050 --> 05:45.610
See, in this case, it was okay, but a pause that it didn't have like world beating numbers.

05:45.610 --> 05:51.700
And you can actually drill down here and you can check more like you can actually see what you wrote

05:51.700 --> 05:53.410
in the description.

05:53.410 --> 05:59.380
You see, this is this was my title and this was my description, you know, classic rock feel about

05:59.710 --> 06:01.030
the drumming to music.

06:01.210 --> 06:03.700
So I try to make it nice and humble.

06:04.090 --> 06:09.010
Nothing is great, but just talking about the feel of the song so people know what to expect because

06:09.010 --> 06:12.550
when their expectations are met, they're happier.

06:12.790 --> 06:17.840
But when their expectations are not met with the same product, they feel a little bit more confused

06:17.840 --> 06:22.000
and disappointed, which results are necessarily in worse engagement and thumbs down.

06:22.270 --> 06:27.820
So as long as they know what they're getting themselves into classic rock feel about daydream into music,

06:27.820 --> 06:29.410
that's exactly what the song is like.

06:30.010 --> 06:33.220
Then they'll be happier, naturally to the same product.

06:33.430 --> 06:38.950
And notice you can run a lot of experiments, you can change the bidding, you can change the demographics,

06:38.950 --> 06:43.630
you can change a lot of things until you figure out an ad that works.

06:43.630 --> 06:46.090
It may be you never figure out an ad that works.

06:46.330 --> 06:47.860
You never figure out a demographic.

06:47.860 --> 06:50.260
But that's the strategy with ads.

06:50.500 --> 06:53.830
Experimentation, experimentation and experimentation.

06:54.160 --> 07:01.660
So that's how to set up the copywriting for your ad and then how to monitor it moving forward and then

07:01.660 --> 07:07.300
deciding to run it or not run it and maximize your chances of greatest engagement.
