Video & Creative

Video Ads

Paid video creative built and tested against real conversion goals, not just view counts.

Definition

What is Video Ads?

Video ads are video content produced specifically for paid distribution — on YouTube, Meta platforms or elsewhere — designed around a direct-response or brand goal, with creative variants built for testing rather than a single unvalidated cut.

Who It’s For

Businesses running or planning paid video campaigns that need creative built for that specific channel’s ad format and testing needs.

Problems This Solves

  • Existing organic content is repurposed as an ad without adapting for a paid context.
  • Only one creative variant exists, with no way to test what actually performs.
  • Video length and pacing don’t match the platform’s ad placement norms.

Our Approach

We build video ad creative specifically for its target platform and placement, produce multiple variants for testing, and coordinate with our Performance Marketing service so creative and targeting are optimized together.

What You Receive

  • Video ad concept and scripting
  • Production of multiple creative variants for testing
  • Platform-specific cuts (length, aspect ratio, captions)
  • Testing plan coordinated with paid media
  • Performance reporting tied to ad platform data

Where This Fits

  • A paid campaign launch needing tested video creative rather than a single guess.
  • An existing ad account with underperforming, stale creative.
  • A product launch needing platform-specific video ad variants.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many creative variants should we test?

This depends on budget and traffic volume, but even two to three meaningfully different variants (hook, pacing or offer) typically surface useful performance signal.

Do you manage the ad campaigns as well as produce the creative?

Video production and campaign management can be scoped together (paired with our Performance Marketing service) or independently.

What's the average conversion rate for video ad traffic?

This varies by platform and offer; we track performance against your own baseline rather than an unverified universal video-specific benchmark.

Can you produce ads for multiple platforms from one shoot?

Often, yes — efficient shoots are planned to capture footage that can be cut for several platforms' specific ad formats.
