To embed videos in ActiveCampaign emails, record or upload your video in Sendspark, click Share Video, click Embed Video, and copy the email embed code. Then, in ActiveCampaign, drag an HTML block into your email, paste the embed code, and preview and send. Recipients whose email clients support video watch it in-email; everyone else sees a clickable GIF preview.

Key takeaways

  • Sending videos in email can increase engagement and click-through rates up to 400%, whether it’s a personal video, product demo, or customer testimonial.
  • The video plays in-email for recipients whose email clients support embedded video; if it’s not supported, Sendspark automatically generates a GIF preview they can click to open the video in their browser.
  • Embed it by copying the email embed code from Sendspark (Share Video then Embed Video), then dragging an HTML block into your ActiveCampaign email and pasting the code before you preview and send.
