Key takeaways
- Templates pre-write the header, message, and call-to-action so you don’t paste the same content below every video.
- Create and manage templates in your Sendspark Templates library; suggested text is available if you’re not sure what to say.
- Apply a template by clicking Select Template in the Sendspark Chrome extension preview modal when you record.
- Templates are shared across your whole workspace, so name workspace-specific ones clearly (for example, “My Calendar - Autumn”).
