    The video advertising agency: ad creative + YouTube ads.

    Ads are the hardest brief in video: three seconds to earn attention, thirty to use it. We make the cuts in-house and run the YouTube campaigns behind them.

    Most video advertising fails in the edit, not the media plan. Earworm is a video advertising agency that treats ad creative as a studio discipline: hook-first cuts built for skippable formats, versioned for every placement, and refreshed before fatigue sets in. We run the YouTube Ads behind our own creative — and for the full multi-platform programme, this plugs straight into our paid social service. Much of the best-performing material starts life as footage you already own: podcast episodes, webinars and event films, re-cut for the feed.

    Video advertising FAQs

    Within our monthly plans (from £1,500), ad creative comes as a versioned set — one production or repurposing pass yields the 6s/15s/30s cuts and aspect ratios a campaign actually needs. One-off creative projects are quoted fixed after a scoping call.

    Yes — it's often the best starting point. Podcast episodes, webinars, event films and old brand films can usually be re-cut into strong ad sets in days rather than weeks. We'll audit your archive on the first call and tell you what's usable.

    As a YouTube ads agency, we cover YouTube end-to-end. For LinkedIn, Meta and TikTok alongside it, we run the full programme through our paid social service — same team, same creative engine, wider media plan.

    Working from existing footage: creative set in one to two weeks, campaign live within days after. With a new shoot: four to six weeks from kick-off to launch, matching our standard production timeline.

    By format-appropriate signals — view-through and hook retention on awareness placements, clicks and conversions on intent placements — reported monthly against pipeline influence rather than raw view counts. Long B2B cycles need view-through honesty, and we're upfront about that.
