Hey, guys, what’s up? It’s Christine Seale, the High Level Queen, and I’m thrilled to share some incredible insights on video hosting and automation using Go High Level. If you’re tired of relying on third-party platforms and want to streamline your digital marketing efforts, this guide is for you! Let’s dive into how you can host videos directly in your funnels, gate them for lead generation, and automate workflows for maximum efficiency.
Step 1: Add Video Element to Your Funnel
First things first, let’s add the video element to your funnel. Open your funnel in Go High Level and edit it. Go to Elements, add an element, and look for the video option. Drag it to your desired location within the funnel.
Next, go into the video settings on the left, select ‘Hosted Video,’ and upload your raw video file. Wait for it to upload and initiate the encoding process. Once your video is ready, it’s time to configure the playback controls.
Playback Controls
Now, let’s talk about playback controls. Here’s a breakdown of the options available:
- Autoplay: Toggle this on to play the video automatically when the page loads. Note that the video will start muted due to autoplay regulations on various browsers and devices.
- Allow Player Pause: Turn this on if you don’t want viewers to pause the video.
- Playback Speed Control: Enable this to let viewers speed up or slow down the video.
- Show Pinning Time: Display a progress bar showing how much of the video remains.
- Full-Screen Toggle: Allow viewers to watch the video in full-screen mode.
- Progress Bar: Enable this to let viewers fast forward or rewind the video.
- Gated Video Access: Require viewers to opt-in with their name and email before watching the video. Redirect them to an opt-in form if they haven’t filled it out yet.
Once you’ve configured the playback controls, preview your hosted video to ensure everything works perfectly.
Step 2: Set Up a Workflow and Tie it All Together
Now that your video is set up, let’s create a workflow to automate follow-up actions based on video engagement. In Go High Level, go to Automation, then Workflow, and create a new workflow from scratch. Set the trigger as ‘Video Tracking.’
Add a filter based on the specific video and its duration. For instance, if you want to trigger actions when viewers watch more than 50% of the video, set the filter accordingly. You can send emails, texts, voicemail drops, or even Instagram DMs based on their engagement.
Here’s a quick example: If a viewer watches the video, send an internal notification saying, “Contact [Full Name] watched the video.” This can go to you or your team, ensuring you’re always aware of engaged leads.
To make sure this workflow functions correctly, place the video behind an opt-in page. This way, only those who opt-in can watch the video, making your tracking and automation more effective.
