Share your collection link

Updated

Short answer

Every VideoTestimonials form has a public link that customers open in any browser, with no login. Open the form from Dashboard → Forms, go to the Trigger tab and copy the Share Link. Paste it into emails, DMs or social posts, embed the form on your site with the Website Embed iframe code, or send tracked requests from Email Outreach.

Share your collection link by email, on social media, or by embedding the form on your website.

Once you've created your collection, sharing it with your audience is easy! Follow these steps to get your collection link and share it effectively.

Step 1: Access Your Collection

  1. Log in to your VideoTestimonials account at https://app.videotestimonials.video.
  2. Open Forms in the space navigation.
  3. Click Edit Form on the form you want to share.

  1. In the form editor, click the Trigger tab at the top. Two share surfaces live there — Share Link (the public URL) and Website Embed (an iframe snippet).
  2. Click the copy icon next to the Share Link URL to copy your collection link.

You can share your collection link in several ways:

  • Via Email: Copy the link and paste it into an email to send to your customers or audience.
  • On Social Media: Share the link directly on your social media platforms. You can create a post or story to encourage engagement.
  • Embed on Your Website: If you want to embed the collection on your website, copy the provided embed code and paste it into your website's HTML.

Step 4: Monitor Responses

After sharing your link, keep an eye on the responses you receive. You can check the submissions directly in your VideoTestimonials dashboard.

Tips for Effective Sharing

  • Personalize Your Message: When sharing via email or social media, include a personal message explaining the benefits of leaving a testimonial.
  • Use Call-to-Actions: Encourage your audience to participate by using clear call-to-actions like "Share your experience!" or "Help us improve!"
  • Track Engagement: Each form card on the Forms page shows Views, Submitted, and conversion Rate, so you can see how many people open your collection link.

By following these steps, you can easily share your collection link and start collecting valuable testimonials from your customers!

Frequently asked questions

Can I make a QR code for my collection link?

VideoTestimonials doesn't generate QR codes itself. Copy the form link from the Trigger tab, paste it into any QR code generator, and print the code on receipts, packaging or table cards. Customers who scan it land on the same form as the link.

What does a collection link look like?

It ends in /collect/ followed by your space slug, which opens your default form. Every other form adds its own slug after that, such as /collect/your-space/vip-customers. The default form is the one marked with a crown on the Forms page.

How do I see whether people open my link?

Each form card in Dashboard → Forms shows Views, Submitted and a conversion Rate. Views count opens of the live form, and a closed form stops counting them. For email requests, the Analytics tab in Email Outreach shows open, click and response rates.

Can I embed the form on my website instead of linking to it?

Yes. In the Trigger tab, click Copy next to Website Embed and paste the iframe snippet into your page's HTML. It loads the full form at 800px tall by default and includes the camera and microphone permissions that video recording needs.
