Google renames YouTube campaign objective to "YouTube reach, views and engagements"

Written by Paid Media Collective
IN BRIEF

Google has rebranded the "Awareness & Consideration" campaign objective to "YouTube reach, views and engagements." The new label better reflects the discrete goals available within YouTube campaigns: reach for broad visibility, views for content consumption, and engagements for interaction: rather than collapsing them under a vague funnel metaphor.
