Optimize & Convert With Your Videos

This step-by-step guide will walk you through the process of utilizing VidSell's in-video Call-To-Action (CTA) and email capture functions. Additionally, it will explain how to send a webhook and add or remove tags to people directly from your videos to enhance your video marketing efficiency


Step 1: Navigate to the CTA Tab

Turn on the CTA toggle to activate your in-video CTA


Step 2: Customize CTA Information

Enter the text you would like your CTA to display, the button text, and the destination URL for where you would like your CTA to lead to.


Step 3: Enter a Display Time

Choose when you would like your CTA to appear in your video. Enter your time in the format of HH MM SS, for example if you would like your CTA to appear at 4 seconds into your video, enter 00 hours 00 minutes and 04 seconds.

Now you can see the CTA appear at the specified time in the video.


Step 4: Customize CTA Appearance

Choose to modify the colors for your CTA including:
  1. Title Color
  2. Button Color
  3. Button Text Color
  4. Background Color


Step 5: Customize CTA Actions

Choose whether you would like your CTA to open a link in a new tab, as well as if you would like you in-video CTA to be skippable by your viewers, and if so what the skip text should display.


Step 6: Add an Email Capture Form

Beneath the CTA tab is the Email Capture Form area. Toggling this option on allows you to capture email addresses directly from inside of your videos!


Step 7: Customize Email Form Information

Enter a title for your form and customize the button text, as well as what actions you would like to be performed when your form is submitted.

Choose from "Continue Video" which will submit the form, and Go to URL which will open an external URL when the form is submitted.

This option can be useful for linking to confirmation pages, or to assets such as newsletters, deliverable downloads, or more once your viewer has submitted their information.


Step 8: Enter a Display Time

Choose when you would like your email capture form to appear in your video. Enter your time in the format of HH MM SS, for example if you would like your form to appear at 7 seconds into your video, enter 00 hours 00 minutes and 07 seconds.

Now you can see the form appear at the specified time in the video.


Step 9: Customize CTA Appearance

Choose to modify the colors for your CTA including:
  1. Title Color
  2. Button Color
  3. Button Text Color
  4. Background Color


Step 10: Customize Email Form Inputs

Choose what information you would like to capture with your form including:
  1. Name
  2. Phone number
And allow your video viewers to skip your form, as well as customize what you would like the skip button's text to display.


Step 11: Sending Webhooks from Forms

Enter in a Webhook Destination URL to send the information you have captured from your form to an autoresponder, CRM, or other outside platform. This information is often found inside of the platform which you would like to send the information to labelled "Webhook URL", "Webhook Receiving URL", or other variations of this same name. Please refer to the platform you would like to connect for more specific information on where to send your webhooks from VidSell.


Step 12: Adding Tags

To keep people you interact with organized inside of VidSell, you can also add and remove tags upon form submission!

These tags will update user information inside of the VidSell people area, and can be used throughout the customer journey to interact with prospects in different ways.

To add a tag, simply type the tag you would like to add and click the 'Add' button. Any pre-existing tags will automatically appear as you begin typing.

When you are finished adding tags, click 'Save'.


Step 13: Removing Tags

To remove a tag upon form submission, repeat the process for adding tags in the remove tags field.

When you are finished entering tags to be removed, click 'Save'.

Tags can be both added and removed at the same time, allowing for dynamic ways to interact with your prospects and customers inside of VidSell!

Add and remove people from different lists based upon where they are in the customer journey, and automate processes within your workflow. For more on all that the People area can do, check out our tutorials "Learn People" in the help center.
