Impression Share held steady across all Search channels: IS did not decline — volume increase reflects more people searching for The Spa Dr, not auction win-rate changes.
Direct ROAS below 1x is expected for a top-of-funnel awareness flight. Primary value is the branded search lift, not last-click attribution.
⚠️ Apr 26–27 CDP orders show 0 due to 1–2 day data lag in conversions_1dc. Actual orders are likely higher.
Excludes: view-through conversions (30-day window continues after flight ends), compounding lift if flight ran longer, and CDP lag adjustment for the final 2 days.
- Run minimum 14–21 days — 7 days shows strong signal but lift likely compounds with more exposure
- Reviews Search (+64%) is the strongest halo KPI; use as primary success metric for future flights
- Monitor CDP for 5–7 days post-flight — view-through conversions still accruing
- Budget $500–700/day is efficient; CPM of ~$13 is strong for video awareness
- Ensure Shopping Brand campaigns are fully budgeted during the next flight to capture the full +14% visibility lift
- Search Brand IS held at 92% — no need to increase Search budgets reactively during YouTube flights
