How It Works

How To Track A YouTube Sponsorship.

Three steps. You tell Scout what to listen for once, and it checks every video from then on.

  1. Tell Scout What The Ad Read Says.

    Add the words a real read would contain: your brand and product names with any alternate spellings, your promo codes, your links, and key phrases from the brief. Scout watches the uploads of every signed creator on the campaign for those terms.

  2. Scout Finds It When It Airs.

    When a signed creator posts, the video appears in the campaign with the ad read clipped, the terms it matched, and the moment they were said. The creator moves to Live. If a go-live date passes with no video, that deal is flagged Late so you can chase it. If Scout misses one, paste the link and Scout checks it.

  3. Judge It Against The Channel's Normal.

    Each video's views are measured against what that channel usually gets, with a forecast of where it is heading, so you can tell a strong video from an average one in the first few days. CPM and Adjusted CPM roll up across the campaign, and a view-only link puts the same numbers in front of your team or client.

What To Do With Your List.

Questions Brands Ask.

  • Proof that an ad ran as agreed. On YouTube it means the sponsored section of the video itself: what the creator said, when in the video they said it, and whether the code and link were right. Scout clips that section for you so nobody has to scrub through a 20 minute video to find it.

  • It watches the uploads of the creators you have signed and checks each new video for your brand names, promo codes, links and key phrases. A match puts the video on the campaign with the clip and the terms it found.

  • No. Tracking runs on the public video, so creators do not need to sign up, install anything, or send you a link.

  • Mark a wrong match as not the right video. If one is missed, paste the link and Scout checks it and adds it to the campaign.

  • Whether this video did better or worse than the channel usually does. A sponsored video at 200,000 views is a good result on a channel that averages 150,000 and a poor one on a channel that averages 400,000, and the raw number will not tell you which.

  • CPM is what you pay per thousand views. Adjusted CPM is what you pay per thousand views from the audience you are after, by country, age and gender, so a cheap video watched by the wrong people does not look like a bargain.
