Key takeaways
- LinkedIn video messages show two elements below the preview you can personalize: the Header and the Domain.
- Edit the Header on the EDIT page of each video: open your library, click the video, and type your text.
- Use placeholders such as the prospect’s first name in the Header, and add fallback text so it reads well when info is missing.
- To change the Domain, add a custom domain to your account; this requires at least a Solo Plan.

Header
This text can be updated on the EDIT page of each video. Simply go to your library, click on the video you are using, and type your desired text.

Domain

To edit the domain, you must add a custom domain to your account and be at least a Solo Plan user.
