Video Advertising

Video advertising works. Videos are shared more than any other digital content format, with twice the message recall of traditional TV and cable. The key to unlocking all that potential lies in producing great content, leveraging a strategic combination of video tactics, targeting your audience, and tracking your results. At enCOMPASS Agency, we can help you make the most of your existing video or plan and execute new productions.

Video Advertising

What is video advertising?

Video advertising involves creating a short and informative video (15, 30 or 60 seconds long) to promote your business to a targeted audience, giving you an opportunity to “talk” to potential customers. It’s made up of three main components:

01. Advanced TV

Advanced TV is the umbrella term that refers to several forms of streaming programming—pretty much any type of TV programming that isn’t broadcast, satellite, or cable TV. Unlike regular TV, advanced TV allows advertisers to show their ads to “cord cutters,” as well as to more targeted and engaged individuals. Reporting is also improved over traditional TV, and advertising is much more affordable! Some specific forms of advanced TV include:

  • Connected TV (also referred to as “Over-the-Top” or “OTT”): Think of connected TV as using your TV to watch content through over-the-top TV devices (like Roku, Firestick, etc.), smart TV apps, or gaming consoles.
  • TV Everywhere: TV Everywhere refers to the ability to watch TV everywhere and anywhere via login-required streaming apps, such as watching HBO GO on a tablet.
  • Video on Demand (VOD): Video on demand is any video content watched AFTER its official release date or original air date and time, through a cable provider’s on-demand menu.

02. Online Video

Pre-roll is an online video advertisement that automatically plays before a user-selected video. Mid-roll is an online video advertisement that automatically plays in the middle of a user-selected video. Video Advertising is served through both mobile and desktop devices. These ads are commonly 15, 30, or 60 seconds long.

03. YouTube

YouTube ads are served to your target market and autoplay before a user‑selected YouTube video. Users must watch 5 seconds of the ad before they can hit “Skip Ad.”

TV viewership is not what it used to be.

Video consumption is no longer emerging... It’s dominant.

With streaming now accounting for a significant share of total TV usage and more viewers shifting away from traditional TV, brands can’t rely on one channel alone to reach their audience effectively.

  • 35%+ of total TV usage is now streaming, surpassing both cable and broadcast
  • 80%+ of U.S. internet users are on YouTube, making it a critical platform for video reach
  • 50%+ of viewers multitask while watching TV, reducing attention to traditional ads
  • 60%+ of streaming viewers use ad-supported platforms, creating new opportunities for targeted advertising

Reaching today’s audience requires more than visibility—it requires strategy. enCOMPASS builds integrated video campaigns across broadcast, cable, Connected TV, YouTube, and programmatic channels to ensure your message reaches the right people, in the right places, at the right time, maximizing both reach and performance.

How video advertising with enCOMPASS works.

Our approach to video advertising

  • Crafting unique, in-depth targeting options for each client campaign using hundreds of data sources
  • Implementing a programmatic approach to video campaigns
  • Optimizing ads around cost per completed view (CPCV) and/or cost per activity (CPA)
  • Providing you security and peace of mind against spam, unsafe, and otherwise low-quality impressions

We don’t “buy” programs or stations; we follow your customers in your target market—regardless of what site they are on, what day it is, or even what time it is. We then track the effectiveness of this targeting by measuring what happens on your website after your ads are seen. For retailers, we can even measure foot traffic attribution!

Diversify your media buys with video advertising.

According to recent statistics, 88% of video marketers reported that video gives them a positive return on investment (ROI). Are you ready to see your marketing efforts pay off?
