How to Send High-Impact Video Emails with Studio by Gan.AI

November 8, 2024

Ever wished you could say something in an email but knew it would be way better on video? Whether it’s a warm introduction to a new client, a product demo, or even a quick project update, sometimes video is the best medium to get your point across. But here’s the catch: sending videos through email can be frustrating. Think slow upload times, file size limits, and compatibility issues. Enter Studio by Gan.AI, which lets you share personalized, high-quality videos through email in a way that’s easy and polished—no file-size headaches or pixelated previews.

Let’s dive into how you can use Studio by Gan.AI to send videos that not only look professional but also make a strong impression.

Why Sending Video Emails Is Usually a Headache

Despite the leaps in technology, sending videos through email still feels like a bit of a throwback to the early internet days. Here’s why:

  1. Size Limits: Most email providers limit attachments to around 25 MB, so videos often don’t make the cut.

  2. Slow Uploads: Large video files can clog up your internet speed, making it slow and annoying to attach them.

  3. Format Compatibility: Not all email clients support the same video formats, so even if you manage to send a video, your recipient might not be able to watch it.

  4. Security Restrictions: Many companies block video attachments due to security policies, meaning your carefully crafted message may never reach your audience.

  5. Spam Filters: Sending a bulk email with an attachment can sometimes trigger spam filters, which reduces your email’s chance of landing in the inbox.

But Studio by Gan.AI tackles all these issues head-on, enabling you to embed videos directly in emails with an eye-catching preview that’s quick to load and easy to watch.

The Easiest Ways to Send Video Emails with Studio by Gan.AI

Studio by Gan.AI gives you a couple of ways to embed videos in Gmail, making it incredibly easy to send out polished, engaging messages that stand out. Here’s how you can make the most of these features:

1. Using the Studio by Gan.AI Chrome Extension in Gmail

The Studio Chrome extension is like your secret weapon for video emails. Here’s how to use it:

  • Open Gmail and start writing a new email.
  • Look for the Gan.AI icon in the formatting toolbar at the bottom (next to all the usual text editing tools).
  • Click on it, and you’ll see two choices:
    • Insert a Video: Pick a video from your Studio library, and embed it as a clickable link or an animated thumbnail. The thumbnail option is particularly compelling because it gives recipients a visual prompt that’s hard to resist clicking.
    • Record New Video: Need to share a quick, personalized message? Just hit "Record" to make a new video on the spot and embed it instantly.

These options let you add personalized, relevant video content into your emails without a hitch. It’s especially handy for sales outreach, onboarding messages, or even quick project updates.

2. Sending Emails Directly from Studio’s Dashboard

Studio by Gan.AI’s dashboard gives you another way to share your videos, which is especially useful if you’re managing multiple campaigns or need to keep everything organized in one place.

  • Log into your Studio account and open the video dashboard for the specific video you want to send.

  • Click “Send Through Email” and follow the prompt to connect your Gmail account if you haven’t already.

  • Add the recipient’s email, a subject line, and any additional message. A thumbnail of your video appears in the email, creating an inviting preview.

This approach keeps everything streamlined. You don’t have to switch between tabs or windows, and you can fire off multiple videos in just a few clicks.

The Magic of Studio’s Customizable Video Landing Pages

Here’s where Studio by Gan.AI really shines. When your recipient clicks on your video, they don’t just see the video alone—they land on a beautifully crafted, branded landing page that you control. Here’s what you can customize:

  • Add Your Branding: Upload your logo, select your brand colors, and link to your social media profiles. This ensures your audience recognizes your brand immediately, lending a touch of professionalism and consistency.

  • Interactive CTAs: Include buttons that drive your audience toward the next step, like scheduling a meeting, signing up for a product demo, or visiting your website. With the right CTA, you can turn a simple video view into an actionable engagement.

  • Built with AI: Studio can utilize AI to generate a custom landing page based on the content of your video. This feature helps you optimize each landing page for its specific message, saving you time and boosting effectiveness.
  • Forms and Downloadable Content: For longer engagements, you can add forms to capture leads or even provide downloadable resources, like a PDF brochure or product sheet, making each landing page a mini interactive hub.

  • Tracking and Analytics: Every landing page comes with analytics, so you can track how viewers engage with your video and what CTAs they’re clicking on. This data helps you understand what’s working and allows you to refine your approach for better results.

This extra layer of customization means each email isn’t just a video link; it’s an immersive brand experience, tailored to drive results.

Why Studio by Gan.AI Stands Out for Video Emailing

Studio by Gan.AI isn’t just about making video emails possible—it’s about making them impactful. Here’s what sets it apart:

  • High-Quality Thumbnails: Instead of a generic link, you get an animated thumbnail that invites recipients to click, making it more engaging than a static preview.

  • Seamless Gmail Integration: With the Chrome extension, you can quickly add or record videos directly in Gmail, so you don’t have to juggle multiple tools.

  • Personalized Video Content: Each video can be personalized with the recipient’s name, company, or other details, creating a more meaningful connection.

  • Detailed Analytics: Track metrics like view count, watch duration, and CTA clicks to measure engagement and improve your future communications.

Best Practices for Sending Video Emails with Studio

Want to get the most out of your video emails? Here are a few tips:

  1. Make the Thumbnail Pop: A visually compelling thumbnail can be the difference between a click and a scroll-past. Studio’s animated GIF thumbnails work well here.

  2. Use a Friendly Introduction: A short, personal message in the email body can set the stage for the video, helping recipients understand why they should watch.

  3. Optimize for Mobile: Studio’s videos and landing pages are designed to look great on both desktop and mobile, so you’re covered no matter where your audience is viewing.

  4. Utilize Analytics: Keep track of how your videos perform. Which videos get the most clicks? Where do viewers drop off? Use this data to continuously improve.
