What NowVillage brings
What our YouTube advertising management service covers
Here is some of the work involved in our YouTube advertising management service
Setting up the account
We create the YouTube advertising account that everything runs on. We handle all the initial setup essential to running advertising smoothly, including payment details and Google Analytics.
An existing account can be used instead.Setting up measurement tags
We set up the pixel that measures results accurately, enquiries, purchases and so on, and the events that capture conversion data.
Building the right campaigns and ad groups
We organise the creative by user segment and behaviour and build the right campaigns and ad groups. A tidy account structure raises the relevance of the advertising, which improves quality scores and keeps spend down.
Designing, setting up and improving the creative
We produce and set up the creative, the images, video and text that catch the eye. We then keep improving it as we go, to get better results.
Adjusting bid strategy and bids
We control the bid strategy to optimise impressions, clicks and conversions, managing it so that a limited budget produces the greatest effect.
Measuring form drop-off
We analyse what happens after the click, to prevent people abandoning the enquiry or purchase form. Measuring which fields slow people down lets us propose form improvements and maximise the conversion rate.
Weekly and monthly reports
We regularly submit clear reports, weekly and monthly, on delivery and results. Beyond the numbers we include our reading of the results and a concrete action plan for improvement in the months ahead.

Why clients
choose NowVillage
Management aimed at revenue and profit
NowVillage's YouTube advertising management does not aim merely at traffic or leads; the goal is maximising revenue and profit in the end. We take in your business model, your margins and your customer value, and build a strategy that gives weight to return (return on ad spend and cost per acquisition). With regular data analysis and improvement proposals we contribute not only to short-term results but to building a long-term basis for revenue. Not as the person who runs your ads, but as your marketing partner, pursuing revenue and profit with you.
Retention and improvement rates both above 90%
NowVillage's YouTube advertising management has a strong record: both contract retention and improvement rates above 90%. We believe that comes from thorough, continuous data analysis and improvement proposals, not merely running the ads.
Monthly reports set out the result measures (conversions, cost per acquisition, return on ad spend) and the detailed data clearly, and we act quickly on what will improve them.
Because results show in a visible form, clients trust us over the long term. There is no set and forget in our advertising management, and that constant drive to better the result is why clients keep choosing us.
Experience across many industries, and a deep body of knowledge
NowVillage has supported YouTube advertising for a wide range of clients, whatever the industry or the size of the company.
Because we understand the commercial conventions and user behaviour of each industry, we can plan the right strategy for producing results quickly.
We have also accumulated a deep body of knowledge from past work and successful projects, and have built an internal ecosystem that actively applies it to new projects.
That lets us create effective creative from the earliest stage. Knowledge honed across many industries is what maximises the effect of your advertising.
And more:
designing a service around your particular problems and situation is a strength of ours.
A dedicated contact alongside you
Because front-line sales and the people running the work are not separate, communication is consistent and responses are fast.
Landing page optimisation
Getting results from advertising needs both skill in running it and a high-quality landing page. We support improving the landing page too.
We can run more than YouTube advertising
Beyond YouTube we can work broadly across display and social advertising.
Support for building capability in-house
We also support bringing advertising management in-house. Leaving it to professionals at first and bringing it in-house once results are steady is an option we support.

About our YouTube advertising management service
Frequently asked questions
Is there a minimum media spend?
We set no minimum. But because a certain volume of data is needed to get results, we recommend starting from around 300,000 yen a month. We propose the right plan for your business goals and budget, so please do get in touch.
Can you work on social advertising other than YouTube?
Yes, we work with the major social platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), LINE and TikTok. We choose and run the right platform for your audience and your aims.
How long before we see results?
It depends on the product and the competition, but results often settle around three months after starting. We focus the first month on optimising the account and gathering data, then repeat analysis and improvement through months two and three, gradually raising the return.
Can you work in any industry?
Yes, we have extensive experience across many industries, in both B2B and B2C. Even in an industry new to us, we plan the right advertising strategy for your business through thorough discussion and research into the market and the competition.
Can you run our existing advertising account?
Yes. In fact past delivery data is a valuable asset, so we would ask you to share access to the existing account, and we analyse the current problems, propose improvements and run it from there.
How often do you submit reports?
As standard there is a weekly report for progress and a detailed monthly report. We report the content at a regular meeting, sharing not only the numbers but our reading of them and an action plan for improvement in the months ahead.
Can you run advertising to a landing page we have made ourselves?
Yes, of course. But results depend heavily on the quality of the landing page. We therefore look at it before starting and may propose improvements to raise the conversion rate where needed.
Can we deal with the person running our advertising directly?
Yes. We regard communication with you as the most important thing. From day-to-day exchanges to regular meetings, the person actually running your account deals with you directly.
Can you run advertising overseas?
Yes, we work on advertising overseas too. We propose a plan that takes account of the countries and regions, the language and the culture. Please do get in touch.
Which advertising channels do you work with?
We work broadly across the major web advertising channels, including social, Instagram, LINE, YouTube and display advertising of various kinds, and search advertising on Google and Yahoo!. We propose the right channels for your aims.

What is YouTube advertising?
YouTube advertising means advertising delivered on YouTube, one of the largest video platforms in the world. Because it runs through Google Ads, highly accurate targeting is possible using Google's search data and user attributes.
The formats are varied: in-stream advertising shown before, during or after a video, discovery advertising the viewer chooses to click, and banner and overlay placements within YouTube. Because it uses video it suits conveying a story or the world of a brand, and is used for purposes ranging from building awareness to prompting a purchase. It is also used across a wide range of ages at home and abroad, so it works for B2B promotion as well as B2C.
The advantages and disadvantages of YouTube advertising
The first advantage is the sheer breadth of reach. In Japan alone you can reach tens of millions of people, and it is drawing attention as an alternative to television advertising for building awareness. Precise targeting using Google's data also lets you deliver to the right audience on the basis of interests and search history. And the expressive power of video is a major strength, conveying the world of a brand and what a product is like to use.
The disadvantages: producing video costs money and takes time. Poor creative easily works against you, so planning and a production setup matter. With skippable formats, failing to hold the viewer in the first few seconds can mean the advertisement is never watched. And with a great deal of competition, bids can rise, so efficient management and continuous improvement are the keys to success.
