Short-form video ads for Washington local businesses
Short videos, the kind you see as Reels, Shorts, or TikTok clips, are one of the faster ways for a local business to show the actual work. A 15- or 30-second clip of a haircut, a repaired furnace, or a packed lunch counter often explains more than a paragraph of copy. That does not mean every Washington shop needs a film crew.
LocalHank offers two fixed-price video services:
- Short-form video ads, from $495, $995, or $1,595, built from footage you already have or can shoot on a phone.
- AI UGC-style video ads, from $495, $1,095, or $1,995, when you need ads that feel like a customer talking and you do not have time to film.
Paid placement is separate. If you want someone to run the ads after they are made, ad management starts at $995 a month, plus your ad spend at Meta or Google. We do not guarantee views, clicks, or sales.
When a short video is worth it
It is worth it when you have something visible to show: a before and after, a busy service counter, a finished room, a plated dish. It is also useful when you are promoting a deadline, such as a Seattle weekend special or a Redmond event near Marymoor. If your photos are dark or inconsistent, start with a photo refresh from $149 so the stills and the video do not clash.
What to send, and what to skip
Send the best clips you have, even if they are imperfect, plus a one-sentence offer and any words that must appear on screen, such as the business name and the city. Skip music you do not have the rights to use, and skip claims you cannot back up. If we use AI-generated imagery or voices, we will not present them as a real customer who does not exist.
A Tacoma shop does not need a Seattle-looking ad, and the other way around. Mention the neighborhood when it helps people recognize the place.
