What are Video Ads?

Video ads can be used through various online platforms, of which YouTube is one of the largest. There are different formats available such as in-stream, out-stream and advertisements that are shown before, in the middle or after a video.

In addition, the length of the video ads plays a major role. Each video type has its own advertising requirements. For example, bumpers are exactly 6 seconds and the perfect solution for reach and awareness. A longer video of more than 30 seconds offers the opportunity to give your story more depth or, for example, to do a product demonstration. This is more suitable for telling users more about your product and potentially converting them.

YouTube has an advertising option for every objective and we are happy to think about the options, so that the video advertisement perfectly matches your objective.


Why would you
advertise using
Video Ads?

Video ads are perfect for branding and inspiration, but YouTube nowadays has many more interesting campaign types, making the channel suitable for generating conversions. You can also show videos in YouTube’s partner network, a selection of high-quality apps and websites. Whatever your objective, there is always a campaign type within YouTube that can help you reach your targets.

In addition, we look beyond YouTube and advise which other video networks are a good fit for your company. For example, certain video networks have a premium character, which may suit your needs. That is why we always look at your objectives first and then determine which channels, campaign types and ad formats best suit your needs. Wondering which video networks are suitable for your company? Then contact us quickly!

Why us?

The mission of Hide and Seek is to bring positivity through good results and lasting relationships with our customers, partners and employees. We do this by combining the knowledge, personality and experience of our customers with that of our own. Together we can come up with the sharpest strategies, unique to the customers’ characteristics and objectives. 

As our customers are always different, we make a custom plan every time. In this plan we will decide together on what success looks like by making it quantifiable, so that every time results are discussed both we and the customer know exactly whether the light is green or red. 

By regularly zooming out, reflecting on market developments and testing with online advertising innovations we make sure to keep up to speed with the ever-changing (online) world. One thing we know for sure is that changes will keep on coming and that our work never stops. Just how we love it.


Knowledge

Everything we do at Hide and Seek starts with having our knowledge in place, always. We are specialists, so we always need to be up to date. By never stopping learning and sharing within the wider team, together we are smarter than the sum of our parts.

Strategy

The (online) world is continuously changing, hence, so should a strategy. We work with a ‘strategy cycle’ to ensure we zoom out regularly, that way making sure that our online strategy is always fully aligned with the overall customer objectives.

Personal

We believe that the best way to work together is by really making a team, together with the customer. There is no ‘they’ and ‘we’ there only is us, as we want the best results as much as our customers do.

Different

Just as our team is a bunch of great individuals, so are our clients. We do not have an off-the-shelf service. We work case by case, fully customised and always flexible to change plans and choose a different path.
