Bumper Ads

Such a video lasts 6 seconds and does not allow skipping. Video ads are often inserted before or after TrueView as a teaser.

Video Discovery

How to make a selling video

The formula for creating a selling video is AIDA (Attention - Interest - Desire - Action). In the first three minutes of the video, it should manage to attract attention. This can be achieved with the help of an unusual presentation, brightness of the image, provocative questions, and absurd statements. The next step is to interest the user by offering them a huge benefit, using the technique of a sense of loss, and intriguing them. Then comes the delivery of the main offer: the advertiser will need to explain to the potential buyer why they need the product or service right now and why it is better to contact them. The end of the video is a motivation to perform the targeted action: click on the button, go to the website, etc. A call to action has a significant impact on conversion, so it should not be neglected.


Viral videos that speculate on the emotions of consumers are particularly noteworthy. To achieve the desired goal, such videos are made provocative. This makes it possible to get a quick response from potential customers and a desire to share the video with other users.
