Lead Generation with Hosted Videos Using Forms

Unlock the potential of your videos with Stack's lead generation feature. By setting a timestamp lock on your hosted videos, you can prompt viewers to fill out a form before continuing to watch. This is a great way to engage your audience and capture leads seamlessly.

Benefits​

  • Restricted Viewing: Control how much of your video is accessible before viewer interaction.
  • Enhanced Engagement: Capture audience attention and generate leads with minimal effort.
  • Incentivize Viewers: Encourage actions like course sign-ups by locking engaging parts of your video.
  • Video Funnels: Transform your video content into a lead generation funnel using our elegant forms.

How to Use​

  1. Add a Video Element:

    • Choose the "Hosted Video" option when adding a video to your content.

  2. Enable Lead Generation:

    • Toggle on the "Generate leads from video" setting.

  3. Set the Timestamp:

    • Decide when the form should appear by entering a timestamp (in hours, minutes, or seconds).

  4. Select a Form:

    • Choose which form will be displayed at your specified timestamp.

  5. Viewer Options:

    • Decide if viewers can close the form and continue watching. If this option is off, viewers must submit the form to proceed.
