Innovating to meet this moment with you
As viewer behaviors shift and brands transform to meet the moment, we’re continually innovating to help advertisers drive the outcomes they care about. Tonight, we shared new ways for advertisers to tap into top creators, drive interactivity on TV screens, and connect with viewers in the living room.
YouTube Select Creator Takeovers give brands the opportunity to make the most of creator-fan connections. Brands will be able to own 100% share of voice on top creators’ channels like Kinigra Deon or Zach King. Fans don’t want to miss a moment. And we don’t want advertisers to miss a moment with them.
Next, we want to ensure that your brand can show up in the right moments on the big screen to connect with engaged viewers. Google AI-powered video campaigns are now being optimized for the living room. Video Reach Campaigns Non-Skips, powered by Google AI, will now deliver on your reach and awareness goals more efficiently, using your existing non-skippable assets. Google AI has been at the core of our ads solutions for years and as we make advances, our ability to help brands drive ROI just keeps getting better.
In addition, we’re giving brands new opportunities to take over the big screen, putting their brand front and center, alongside ways to drive interactivity. People are never far from their phones, so formats like QR codes drive engagement. Case in point: interactivity on TV screens has more than doubled in the past year.4 The new more modern branded QR code will allow viewers to engage with brands right away, while making the big screen a more holistic branded experience.
