When search hits its ceiling, video creates new demand with YouTube and Demand Gen.
- ResultNew people who start searching for you
- CadenceWeekly adjustments
On YouTube it is easy to spend and hard to know what sold. Most of the value arrives without a click, so judging by views or clicks means paying for applause, not customers.
- You have video (or can shoot it) but your Meta and search ads no longer bring new people
- Your customer researches or compares before buying: treatments, courses, mid- to high-ticket products
- Someone told you YouTube 'gives reach' but nobody has shown you which sales or bookings it produced
How we work
- 1GoalWe define the role of video, the audience, the maximum cost per lead or booking and which conversion counts.
- 2StructureWe build action and reach campaigns separately, with first-party audiences, segments and placement exclusions.
- 3TestsWe test hooks, vertical and horizontal formats and calls to action, without over-adjusting bids at every review.
- Placement and exclusion reviewEvery weekYour live report

Humans + AI agents, led by a human.
Your Plugo team decides
A specialist sets the strategy, approves every piece and answers for the result.
- Action or reach: Demand Gen when the goal is lead, booking or sale; video reach campaigns when you need to control frequency or be remembered locally. Mixing both in one campaign blurs the read.
- What counts as a conversion: with your team we decide whether to optimize to lead, booking or sale, and whether to include view conversions. Optimizing to a weak event (like a page visit) makes the system find people who only watch.
- Minimum viable budget: with conversion bidding, Google recommends a daily budget of at least 20 times your expected cost per conversion. If that does not fit, we start with an event closer to the ad.
AI speeds it up
AI agents review your accounts every day, spot what changed and prepare the improvements.
We measure the effect of video on your searches and sales.

What we measure
You see it live in the visibility report in the Plugo app.
- We measureCost per lead, booking or saleWhat each real result from YouTube costs you.
- We measureClick vs. view conversionsHow much of the result came from a click and how much from people who watched or engaged and converted later.
- We measureEngaged-view conversionsPeople who watched a minimum stretch (10 seconds on skippable ads) and converted later.

Monthly or per project, with a scope of work (SOW) built around you.
How we build your scopeBoth, but in separate campaigns. Action campaigns (Demand Gen) optimize to lead, booking or sale; reach campaigns aim to be remembered without saturating. Each is judged by its own metric.
