to its branded content partnership process<\/a> that will enable brands to gain direct access to sponsored video performance insights. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>First off, YouTube has announced that it\u2019s rebranding its brand\u2013initiated video linking as \u201cBrand Partner Access.\u201d With this new process, creator-approved brands will be given access to full video performance metrics on sponsored content, while they\u2019ll also be able to launch creator content as ads within larger paid campaigns.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"YouTube partner access\"

are just two examples of how YouTube creator partnership ads can be displayed, with overlays on Shorts that link to a brand promotion. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>YouTube creators are able to tag their videos as sponsored content within the upload flow, which will add<\/span><\/span><span><span><span><span> a \u201cPaid promotion\u201d label to the relevant video clip\/s.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>And as noted, within this updated process, approved brand partners will be able to promote creator content as part of a partnership ad campaign across YouTube and Google platforms, while also gaining expanded access to insights based on that content. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>YouTube says that this new process will save creators time, by making it easier for brand partners to access relevant video info, without having to ask the creator to share insights, while the direct access to performance data will also alleviate the need for creators to share screenshots of their video performance.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>YouTube also notes that brand sponsored promotions of their content can help creators grow their audience:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span><span><span><em><span><span>\u201cIf a brand uses your video in a partnership ad campaign, your video will get surfaced to a new, highly targeted and relevant audience.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>Functionally, it\u2019s not a major change, with the key update being the capacity to more easily share video-specific data with brand partners, in order to save time, and add more transparency to the process. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>But both YouTube\u2019s partner ads and the capacity to share performance insights have existed for some time, through various other means.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>But with YouTube looking to help more creators make money from their content, it\u2019s working on various refinements and improvements to streamline the process.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>Back in October, YouTube also launched a new <span><span><span><span>Media Kit process<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><span><span><span><span>, which enables YPP channel managers to generate a PDF of their channel performance stats, that they can then share with prospective brand partners.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"YouTube Press Kit\"
