What you’ll need

A Vidlo workspace with access to create campaigns
Your brand assets (logo, optional overlay)
A place to share: email, social, website, in‑store signage, event booths

Quick start (5–10 minutes)

Create a new campaign
- Give it a clear name and short purpose statement.
- Add a simple recording prompt (e.g., “Tell us in 20–30 seconds how [product] helped you”).
- Upload your logo and, if desired, select a branded overlay or effects so every video is on‑brand.
Choose how people record
- Share a campaign link or display a QR code — no app downloads required.
- Great for events, email follow‑ups, post‑purchase flows, or support wins.
Collect submissions automatically
- Videos are recorded from any phone/tablet/computer and appear in your Vidlo dashboard.
- Optional lead capture can be enabled so each video can include contact info.
Review and brand
- Approve the best takes. Vidlo automatically applies your logo/overlay to keep output consistent.
- Organize by tags or campaigns for quicker reuse.
Publish and use everywhere
- Embed on landing pages, product pages, or help docs.
- Share to social, drop into email campaigns, or export for ads.

From your Vidlo dashboard, grab the share or embed options for any approved video.
Paste the embed into your CMS or site builder. Most platforms (Shopify, Webflow, WordPress, etc.) accept the embed snippet.
For in‑person capture, print the campaign QR code and place it at check‑in, at merch tables, near registers, or on table tents.

Tip: Pair embeds with short written context above or below the video so visitors know what to watch for and what action to take.

Best practices for higher‑converting testimonials

Be specific with prompts: ask for the problem, the moment of value, and the outcome.
Keep it short: aim for 20–45 seconds. Short prompts produce punchier videos.
Time it right: ask right after a win (support solved, event excitement, delivery day).
Make it easy: link + QR everywhere your customers already are.
Incentivize: offer a small perk or entry into a giveaway to increase participation.
Standardize framing: show a quick example so creators match tone and length.
Add lead capture when relevant so great videos also fuel your CRM.

Running multiple campaigns

Create separate campaigns for launches, events, regions, or audience segments.
Use distinct prompts and overlays per campaign to keep outputs on‑brand.
Reuse winning prompts; retire prompts that underperform.
