PLAN
• Establish a campaign idea
• Research products, competition, release dates, etc.
• Set a deadline for when your campaign will go live
• Create a prioritized list of tasks to move forward with

PREPARE
• Begin implementing tasks from your prioritized list.
Examples based on a recent campaign of mine:
• Create keyword-rich video titles, descriptions, tags,
and playlist information
• Create video intro and outro to use for every video
in the campaign’s series
• Create a series introduction video and upload it
first. This is to get into YouTube’s index for certain
keywords I want to target before others do.

EXECUTE
It’s campaign time!
This is where all of your research, planning, and preparation
come into play to make your campaign as smooth as
possible. If real-time analytics was part of your strategy,
then this is when it all pops-off!

ANALYZE / OPTIMIZE
After 2-3 days of your videos drawing analytics data,
now is when you delve into all the analytics reports
discussed earlier: keywords, traffic sources, audience
retention, demographics, etc.
All of that information will allow you to optimize what
you currently have in place, as well as give you a
copious amount of inspiration where content ideas for
future campaigns and videos are concerned!
