Make every view mean more

Effective video advertising is not about chasing the cheapest view. It is about earning attention and creating an impact. We plan video around where your audience is watching, the role each environment plays and the outcome your business needs. Creative is adapted for the platform, not simply resized and repeated, while measurement looks beyond platform-reported conversions to understand how video builds reach, creates demand and strengthens performance across your wider media mix. 

Balancing brand and performance is never easy, but Connected truly understands the challenge. They don’t just run campaigns - they dive deep into the data to uncover and quantify what actually drives results. Their insight into how premium video boosts brand search and quality leads has been a game-changer for us. It has empowered us to confidently scale our marketing with real impact. Connected’s expertise and data-driven approach enable our small team to compete head-to-head against much larger competitors who invest more heavily, by fine-tuning messaging and optimising media spend for maximum effect.

What partnering with Connected means for your video advertising strategy?

Video advertising is increasingly fragmented. We make it more connected.

We focus investment where it can create meaningful impact, matching the right platforms and formats with the right creative and frequency. Instead of optimising towards surface-level metrics like cheap CPMs or views, we measure video against the role it plays in driving attention, demand and commercial growth.

What to expect from Connected

Classical column icon representing stability and structure

Strategy built around the business

We start with your commercial goals and define the role video needs to play. Then we determine where your audience is watching, which environments deserve investment and how budget should be concentrated to build sufficient reach and frequency.

Creative built for the environment

One video does not fit every placement. We consider length, orientation, sound, pacing and branding for each environment, then use early attention and engagement signals to understand which creative is gaining traction.

Measurement beyond the view

We establish measurement before launch, from reach, frequency and engagement through to brand and search lift, assisted conversions and performance across other channels. This helps us understand the contribution video makes to growth, not simply which platform claims the final conversion.

Frequently asked questions

Video advertising uses paid video content to reach audiences across digital and connected environments. This can include Connected TV, BVOD, streaming services, YouTube, social media, websites and other online video placements.
Video advertising can build brand awareness, extend reach, earn attention and generate demand. Depending on the platform, format and campaign objective, it can also support traffic, conversions and performance across other marketing channels.
The right platforms depend on your audience, objectives, budget and available creative. Rather than defaulting to one channel, we look at where your audience consumes video and select the mix of streaming, Connected TV, YouTube, social and other video environments that can best deliver your goals.
Video advertising should be measured against its role in the customer journey. We can assess reach and frequency, video completion, engagement, brand lift and search lift, alongside signals such as direct and organic traffic, assisted conversions and improvements across performance channels.
There is no universal video advertising budget. Investment should reflect your audience size, campaign objectives, platform mix and the frequency required to make an impact. Spreading a limited budget across too many audiences and platforms can reduce effectiveness.
Effective video advertising combines the right audience, environment, message and measurement. Creative should also be designed or adapted for each placement, considering factors such as length, orientation, sound, pacing and branding rather than using the same asset everywhere.
Yes, but its impact is not always captured by last-click attribution. Video can create demand that later appears through branded search, direct traffic, retargeting or another conversion channel. Measuring these wider effects gives a clearer view of its contribution to revenue and growth.
