The Truth About Using YouTube Director For Your Video Marketing Advertising (Ep. 152)

Great video ads are important to the success of your overall advertising plan, but creating great video ads can feel overwhelming.

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could spend a couple of hours and minimal budget on a video and gain hundreds or even thousands of conversions?

Unfortunately, it’s not that easy. If you want to create a video that not only converts, but stands the test of time, it’s going to require time, money and real professionals.

YouTube Director is promising a lot of things that, realistically, aren't going to deliver for most people. From the time commitment to the financial commitment to the length of the video, the conversions you’ll get just won’t match the conversions that a truly professional video would produce.

In this episode of Video Marketing Mastery, I sit down with WireBuzz’s Director of Strategy, Marcus Krieg to talk about the difference between YouTube Director and a professionally produced video.

Hint, it’s more than just price.

If you want to spend your video production budget wisely and make the best choices to get the most conversions, you don’t want to miss this episode.
