Google says stronger YouTube creative can more than double ROI
New Google guidance cites Nielsen research attributing 49% of campaign ROI to creative and Ekimetrics analysis finding that stronger creative can more than double YouTube ROI. The recommendations include using human voices, introducing the brand early, designing for the platform, and avoiding misleading interface elements such as fake buttons.
