How to Add Video to an Email Campaign Template

Adding a video to your email campaign can enhance engagement and provide a dynamic way to communicate with your audience. Here’s a simple guide on how to embed a video link into your email campaign template.

Step 1: Start a New Email Campaign

  • Log in to your event's backend and click Create New Email Campaign.
  • At the bottom of the setup screen, choose between:
    • Use Unlayer to create your template
    • Let our AI tool generate an email for you.

Both methods allow you to embed video links seamlessly.

Step 2: Adding the Video Link in the Email Template

  • For Unlayer:

    1. In the template editor, locate the text box where you want to place your video link.
    2. Copy the video URL (e.g., from YouTube).
    3. Paste the URL into the text area. The system will automatically create a hyperlink.
  • For AI-generated templates:

    1. In the content instruction screen, specify where you want the video link to appear.
    2. Paste the video URL directly into the desired text section. The tool will automatically make the link clickable.

Step 3: Review and Test

  • Once the video URL is added, send a test email to yourself or your team to ensure the link appears correctly and directs recipients to the video when clicked.

Step 4: Finalize and Send

  • After confirming the video link works as intended:
    1. Complete your email design.
    2. Schedule the campaign or send it immediately.
      Recipients will see the video link in the email, and clicking it will direct them to the video.

Key Tips

  • Use engaging text to encourage recipients to click the video link (e.g., "Watch this exciting preview!").
  • Test your email on multiple devices to confirm link functionality.
  • Ensure the video is hosted on a reliable platform to avoid playback issues.

Incorporating video into your email campaigns can capture your audience’s attention and improve engagement, making your messages more impactful and memorable.
