Recommendations
Actionable guidance to optimise media choices and enhance creative effectiveness based on your results.
Media recommendations
If creative cannot be changed, which media choices maximise attention?
Recommended format
YouTube
pre-roll skippable
With 5.23 seconds of Active Attention, Youtube pre-roll skippable delivers the strongest potential for a category leader to drive brand-building goals. More than 17% of the ad is actively viewed, ensuring the message is absorbed before users scroll, skip, or disengage.
Complementary format
General Web
pre-roll
A well-suited supporting platform to extend engagement and reach is General_Web pre-roll. With 3.01 seconds of active attention and 13.23 seconds of passive attention, it reinforces awareness effectively.
Reconsider format
General Web
outstream video
With just 0.85 seconds of Active Attention, this format is ineffective for brand awareness, regardless of brand size. Reconsider formats offering less than 2.5 seconds of Active Attention, as they fail to sustain audience engagement before viewer drop-off.
Creative recommendations
If you can't influence the media, but can influence the creative.
Branding
Strong
Branding in the first 1–2 seconds of a video can be highly effective in reinforcing brand recognition and building mental availability. However, this benefit is strongest when the distinctive brand assets (DBAs) used are genuinely distinctive, well-established, and already strongly associated with the brand in the minds of the target audience. If early-frame branding relies on assets that are not yet widely recognised or uniquely owned by the brand, there is a risk that these cues do not register as intended - or are misattributed.
Ad length and format
Needs Work
These formats support ad lengths beyond 20 seconds, which is good for storytelling and sustained engagement, making them ideal for upper-funnel brand-building campaigns for leader brands. However, leveraging non-skippable formats will encourage greater audience retention and increase likelihood that your brand message is absorbed. Consider using 6 - 15sec ad length on Youtube to benefit from their non-skippable format.
