A pre-roll ad before your marketing video is an attention tax. Half the viewers hit skip the second it appears, and a chunk closes the tab before your first frame plays.
When a video ends and the player shows a grid of other videos (including competitors), the click that should have gone to your CTA goes to a next-up thumbnail instead.
You picked the video, the thumbnail, the pacing, and the end screen. An ad in the middle of playback undoes the story arc you built for a viewer who agreed to watch your content.
