Plan your YouTube video and the posts around it

The video is one part of the launch. Keep its title, description and publishing settings beside the posts that introduce it on your other connected channels.

This connection is available. Your account still needs the required publishing permissions.

Get started See how it works

Keep the video and its promotion together

Give viewers a clear introduction

Write a title and description that explain what the video covers. Keep the promise faithful to the video you are uploading.

Review the audience settings

Choose the available visibility settings and required Made for kids option. Keep those choices with the video before scheduling.

Plan the posts around the release

Draft introductions and reminders for other connected channels. Each version can tell readers why they should watch.

Give viewers more than a release announcement

A tutorial with a useful introduction

Release the video, share the problem it helps solve and follow with a practical example. Keep those publications in one campaign with the dates you choose.

A product demo with supporting posts

A short social post can point to the demo while the YouTube description holds the full context. Review the video and each announcement before the campaign goes out.
