MRC Performance
I have been in business for over 10 Years and recently moved to AGR Technology for all our IT needs. They are able to fix nearly anything remotely and always very helpful in recommending appropriate hardware upgrades that do the job as required but not costing more than needed.
Alessio provided an excellent service. He was very dedicated in his method of finding solutions to problems. He continued to try different avenues until he found the reason as to why a particular application was not working. He was very knowledgeable in his understanding of the internet and of applications and how they work, and he was able to apply this knowledge in understanding how to resolve the obstacles that continued to appear. He is understanding towards his client's needs and goals and he is willing to work with his client in achieving those goals. He is a very polite and well mannered person and very calm and gentle in his approach. I would highly recommend Alessio's services to anyone.

Alessio from AGR Technology has recently helped me create a website for my business.
Throughout the whole process from start to finish Alessio made the process easy for me, by calling me and explaining each step of the way. I'm not very computer savvy, but with Alessio taking the time to explain in detail everything I needed to know from putting inventory in to having it shipped. He even remotely joined my computer to help guide me through everything.
He's very knowledgeable and is experienced in everything I needed and if there was anything else I needed to know that wasn't something he was familiar with, he researched it.
I would HIGHLY recommend Alessio to anyone. He has not only helped me for now but I know that if I ever needed help with anything else he would definitely go above and beyond to help. Thank you so much for everything you have done. It's been a long process but well worth it 🙂

Why YouTube Advertising Matters for Your Business
Over 2.7 billion people use YouTube every month, and Australians are among the platform’s most active users. The average person watches more than an hour of YouTube content daily, creating unprecedented opportunities for businesses to reach their ideal customers with video content.
Unlike traditional advertising channels, YouTube lets you target viewers based on their interests, search history, demographics, and even life events. This precision means your ads reach people who are genuinely interested in what you offer, not just anyone with a television or radio.
But here’s what really sets YouTube apart: intent. When someone searches for “how to fix a leaking tap” or “best accounting software for small business,” they’re actively looking for solutions. Your ad can appear at exactly the right moment, positioning your business as the answer to their problem.
We’ve seen businesses across industries, from trades to professional services to e-commerce, achieve remarkable returns through strategic YouTube advertising. The platform also offers something traditional channels can’t: detailed performance data. You’ll know exactly how many people watched your ad, how long they watched, what actions they took, and how much each result cost. This transparency makes it possible to continuously improve your campaigns and allocate budget to what works best.
Understanding YouTube Ad Formats and Options
YouTube offers several ad formats, each designed for different marketing objectives. Choosing the right format, or combination of formats, depends on your goals, budget, and target audience. We’ll help you navigate these options and select what makes sense for your business.
Skippable and Non-Skippable In-Stream Ads
Skippable in-stream ads are the most common format you’ll encounter. These play before, during, or after other videos, and viewers can skip them after 5 seconds. You only pay when someone watches at least 30 seconds (or the full ad if it’s shorter) or interacts with your ad.
This format works brilliantly for storytelling and brand building. You have time to explain your value proposition, demonstrate your product, or share customer testimonials. The skip option also means you’re not forcing your message on uninterested viewers, you only pay for engaged attention.
Non-skippable in-stream ads run for 15 seconds or less, and viewers must watch them completely. These command full attention and work well for short, punchy messages when you need guaranteed visibility. They’re particularly effective for new product launches, limited-time offers, or when you need to get a specific message across quickly.
Bumper Ads and In-Feed Video Ads
Bumper ads are 6-second non-skippable videos designed for maximum impact in minimal time. Think of them as digital billboards, brief, memorable, and focused on a single message. They’re cost-effective for building brand awareness and work exceptionally well when paired with longer ad formats as part of a multi-touchpoint strategy.
In-feed video ads (formerly known as discovery ads) appear in YouTube search results, alongside related videos, or on the YouTube homepage. Unlike in-stream ads that interrupt viewing, these appear as thumbnails that users can choose to click. When someone clicks your thumbnail, they’re taken to your video, which typically lives on your YouTube channel.
This format is perfect for businesses that want to build an audience and provide valuable content. Because viewers actively choose to watch, they’re typically more engaged and receptive to your message. We’ve found these particularly effective for service-based businesses that need to establish expertise and trust before prospects are ready to enquire.
Our YouTube Ads Management Process
Running successful YouTube campaigns requires more than just uploading a video and setting a budget. We follow a proven process that maximises your return on investment while continuously improving performance.
Strategy Development and Audience Targeting
Every effective campaign starts with strategy. We begin by understanding your business objectives, target market, competitive landscape, and unique value proposition. What do you want to achieve, brand awareness, website traffic, lead generation, or sales? Who are your ideal customers, and what problems are you solving for them?
From there, we develop detailed audience profiles and targeting strategies. YouTube’s targeting capabilities are extensive, and we use them strategically:
- Demographic targeting: Age, gender, household income, and parental status
- Interest and affinity audiences: People who’ve shown sustained interest in relevant topics
- Custom intent audiences: Users actively searching for products or services like yours
- Remarketing: People who’ve previously interacted with your website or videos
- Life events: Users going through major life changes (moving house, getting married, starting a business)
- Placement targeting: Specific channels or videos where your ads will appear
We also conduct thorough keyword research to identify what your potential customers are searching for on YouTube. This informs both your targeting and creative approach, ensuring your message resonates with viewer intent.
Campaign Creation and Optimization
Once strategy is locked in, we build your campaigns with proper structure, conversion tracking, and budget allocation. We set up multiple ad groups to test different audiences, messages, and bidding strategies, then let the data guide our decisions.
But launching is just the beginning. We monitor your campaigns closely, especially in the first few weeks. We analyse which audiences engage most, which ad formats drive results, and which creative elements resonate. Based on this data, we continuously refine targeting, adjust bids, pause underperforming elements, and scale what’s working.
You’ll receive regular reports that break down performance in plain language, no jargon or vanity metrics. We focus on what matters: cost per lead, return on ad spend, conversion rates, and how YouTube fits into your broader marketing ecosystem.
Our team also stays current with platform updates, new features, and emerging best practices. YouTube’s advertising capabilities evolve constantly, and we make sure your campaigns benefit from the latest innovations.
What Makes Effective YouTube Advertising
The difference between campaigns that waste money and those that generate real returns often comes down to targeting precision and creative execution. Both elements need to work together.
Targeting Capabilities That Drive Results
YouTube’s targeting goes far beyond basic demographics. The platform leverages Google’s vast data ecosystem to help you reach people based on what they’re actively interested in and searching for right now.
Custom intent audiences are particularly powerful. These allow you to target people who’ve recently searched for specific keywords on Google, effectively reaching users with high purchase intent. For example, if you’re a financial planner, you can target people who’ve searched for “retirement planning advice” or “superannuation advice Sydney.”
Combining audience types creates even better results. We often layer demographic targeting with interest categories and remarketing lists. Someone who’s visited your website, falls within your target age range, and has shown interest in your industry is far more likely to convert than a cold audience.
The key is starting with broader targeting to gather data, then narrowing focus based on what performs. We let actual campaign performance, not assumptions, drive targeting decisions.
Creative Best Practices for Video Ads
Your video creative is equally critical. You have seconds to capture attention and convey value before viewers hit skip or scroll past.
The most effective YouTube ads follow these principles:
Hook viewers immediately: The first 5 seconds determine whether someone keeps watching. Start with a compelling question, surprising statement, or visually arresting image that demands attention.
Focus on the viewer’s problem: People don’t care about your business, they care about their problems and needs. Frame your message around their challenges and how you solve them.
Show, don’t just tell: Video is a visual medium. Demonstrate your product in action, show real results, or use graphics to illustrate concepts. Static talking heads rarely perform well.
Include clear calls-to-action: Tell viewers exactly what to do next, visit your website, call for a quote, download a guide, or book a consultation. Make it specific and easy.
Optimise for sound-off viewing: Many people watch with sound muted. Use captions, text overlays, and visual storytelling that works even without audio.
Keep it concise: Respect viewers’ time. Even with skippable ads where you have more time, get to your core message quickly. Most successful ads are between 15-30 seconds.
We work with businesses to either optimise existing video assets or develop new creative that aligns with these best practices. Good creative doesn’t necessarily require Hollywood production budgets, it requires clear messaging and strategic thinking.
Industries That Benefit Most from YouTube Ads
While virtually any business can succeed with YouTube advertising, certain industries see particularly strong results due to the platform’s visual nature and audience behaviour.
Professional services including accountants, lawyers, financial planners, and consultants use YouTube to build credibility and trust. Video lets you put a face to your business and demonstrate expertise in ways that text-based ads can’t match. Educational content that addresses common questions positions you as the go-to expert when prospects are ready to hire.
E-commerce businesses benefit from product demonstrations and lifestyle content that shows products in use. Fashion retailers, specialty stores, and direct-to-consumer brands can drive significant sales by reaching people interested in their product categories.
Software and technology companies can use video to explain complex products, demonstrate features, and address common objections. Tutorial-style content works particularly well for attracting users searching for solutions to specific technical problems.
Health and fitness, education and training, and automotive services are other sectors where we’ve seen consistently strong performance. The common thread? These industries solve clear problems for identifiable audiences, and video is an effective medium for communicating their value.
Measuring Success and ROI from Your Campaigns
YouTube advertising provides detailed performance metrics that let you track exactly how your campaigns are performing. But data is only useful if you’re measuring what actually matters for your business.
We track standard metrics including views, view rate, impressions, and click-through rate. These help us understand engagement and optimise creative and targeting. But the metrics that really matter are conversions and return on ad spend.
Proper conversion tracking is essential. We carry out tracking that shows exactly what happens after someone watches your ad, whether they visit your website, fill out a contact form, make a purchase, or call your business. This requires setting up conversion actions in Google Ads and, where possible, integrating with your CRM or analytics platforms.
For businesses with longer sales cycles, we also track assisted conversions, where YouTube ads play a role in the customer journey even if they’re not the final touchpoint before conversion. Someone might discover your business through a YouTube ad, visit your website several times over the following weeks, then eventually convert through direct traffic or organic search. YouTube still deserves credit for initiating that relationship.
We calculate cost per lead (CPL) and cost per acquisition (CPA) to understand efficiency. A campaign generating leads at $50 each might be excellent for a service with a $5,000 average customer value, but unsustainable for a product with a $100 margin.
Return on ad spend (ROAS) is the ultimate measure of success. If you spend $3,000 on ads and generate $12,000 in revenue, your ROAS is 4:1. For most businesses, we target ROAS of at least 3:1 to 5:1, though this varies significantly by industry and margins.
We provide clear reporting that connects your ad spend to actual business results. You’ll always know what you’re getting for your investment, and we’ll be transparent about what’s working and what needs adjustment.
AGR Technology’s approach is results-focused. We’re not interested in vanity metrics or keeping campaigns running if they’re not delivering value. Our success is measured by your success.

This provides enough data to test different audiences and creative approaches, identify what works, and optimize accordingly for better results. At AGR Technology we can help conduct market research and advise on ad spend and suitable budgets depending on the campaign.
How much does YouTube advertising cost per view?

What types of YouTube ad formats are available for businesses?
YouTube offers several ad formats including skippable in-stream ads, non-skippable in-stream ads (15 seconds), bumper ads (6 seconds), and in-feed video ads. Each format serves different marketing objectives like brand awareness, lead generation, or direct conversions.
How does YouTube ads targeting work compared to other platforms?
YouTube leverages Google’s data ecosystem to target audiences based on demographics, interests, search history, life events, and custom intent. You can reach people actively searching for specific keywords, remarketing to previous visitors, or target specific channels and videos.
Can YouTube ads generate leads for service-based businesses?
Yes, YouTube ads are highly effective for service-based businesses. Professional services, home services, and trades can showcase expertise, build trust through video content, and target users actively searching for solutions, consistently generating qualified leads at competitive costs.
What makes a YouTube ad effective and engaging?
Effective YouTube ads hook viewers in the first 5 seconds, focus on solving viewer problems rather than promoting the business, use visual demonstrations, include clear calls-to-action, and keep messages concise. Optimizing for sound-off viewing with captions also improves performance.
