Chris Palliser Community Manager at Shift
5.0★
Web Design Review from Chris Palliser
I work with Shift (Solar & Energy Storage Installer) and I had a great experience working with Major Tom on our brand refresh and new website. Their team is knowledgable, thoughtful, supportive, and I feel they personally and genuinely want us to succeed as a business. Shout out to Nathalie! They made me feel like a priority during any request, and delivered a polished functional design and UX that feels both national and locally grounded, exactly what we asked for. Communication was strong throughout, and they were quick to find solutions when challenges came up, as they inevitably do. Thank you, Major Tom! Highly Recommend!

Rita Dragonette CEO at Undisclosed

Digital Marketing Review from Rita Dragonette
I've had the pleasure of working with Motion as both colleague and client. As a colleague I was referred to them for a number of my CEO clients. The high-level coverage they were able to secure was very instrumental in significantly raising the profile of those clients and helping them attract the opportunities they were after. As a client, Motion was able to quickly and innovatively operationalize a successful social giving program to fund a scholarship I started as part of the launch for my new novel. The response was terrific for book awareness and quickly became fully funded. The agency is highly responsive, the staff skilled and engaging. Terrific client service.

7 Frequently Asked Questions About YouTube Advertising Companies
How much do YouTube advertising agencies’ services cost?
YouTube advertising company services typically cost $1,000 to $10,000+ per month, depending on campaign size, complexity, and production needs. In addition to a fixed fee, agencies might charge 10% to 30% of ad spend.
YouTube advertising companies split costs into two categories: ad spend and service fees. Ad spend is what you pay YouTube. Service fees are what the agency charges to manage campaigns and produce videos.
Core cost breakdown:
Ad spend: $0.10 to $0.30 per view or impression
CPM: $4 to $10 per 1,000 impressions
Video production: A few hundred to $5,000+ per video
The cost depends on your target audience, ad format, campaign goals, competition level, and the quality of your video production and management.
The strongest formats consistently combine value and attention:
How-to and DIY videos solve a clear problem
Reviews and “I tried…” build trust and proof
Behind the scenes show authenticity
Listicles are easy to follow and fast to consume
Challenges keep attention through suspense
Reactions and conversations create a connection
“With me” videos build engagement and retention
How soon can you see the results of YouTube advertising?
You can see initial results from YouTube advertising within a few days, but reliable, optimized results usually take 2 to 6 weeks of testing and refinement.
Early data comes fast because campaigns start generating views and clicks immediately. However, meaningful performance depends on testing multiple variables, such as targeting and creatives. Most campaigns need enough spend and iterations to identify what works before scaling.
How do YouTube ads compare to other platforms?
YouTube ads outperform most platforms in video engagement and intent, while offering strong targeting and lower costs than TV. Still, Meta ads are often better for fast conversions and social reach.
YouTube works best because users come to watch content, not scroll. That creates higher attention and longer watch time. It also uses Google data for precise targeting and gives strong analytics.
Meta ads reach users quickly in feeds but often receive less attention. TV reaches a broad audience but lacks targeting, flexibility, and performance tracking.

How do YouTube advertising companies measure the success of your ads?
YouTube advertising companies measure ad success by tracking engagement, clicks, and conversions against your campaign goal.
Companies should tie each campaign to a clear outcome. If the goal is awareness, focus on views and watch time. If the goal is traffic or sales, focus on clicks and conversions. Raw views alone are not enough; you need to see if people watch, engage, and take action.
Key metrics to track:
Views: How many people watched your ad
Watch time and retention: How long they stayed engaged
Click-through rate (CTR): How many clicked after watching
Conversions: Sign-ups, purchases, or leads generated
Cost per result: How much you pay per view, click, or conversion
Brand lift: Changes in awareness, interest, or perception
Platforms agencies use:
Google Ads: Performance, costs, conversions
YouTube Analytics: Engagement and audience behavior
Success means that the audience doesn’t just see your ads, but it’s watching them, clicking, and driving measurable business results.
Why should you hire a YouTube ads agency instead of managing ads yourself?
You should hire a YouTube advertising agency because they reduce wasted spend, speed up results, and manage complexity that most teams cannot handle internally.
Running YouTube ads requires constant testing, targeting, creative optimization, and data analysis. Most in-house teams lack the time, experience, or tools to do this efficiently. Agencies already have proven frameworks, know what works, and avoid common mistakes that burn budget.
What is the recommended starting budget for YouTube advertising?
Most businesses should start with $10 to $50 per day, which equals roughly $300 to $1,500 per month for testing and initial optimization. This budget is enough to generate initial data, test audiences and creatives, and identify what works before scaling spend.
