Embedding videos directly in emails can be tricky due to varying email client support. The most reliable method is to use a thumbnail image or an animated GIF that links to the video hosted on platforms like YouTube, Vimeo, or your own website.
1. Create a compelling thumbnail: This should be a single frame from your video that entices the viewer to click. 2. Use an animated GIF: A short, looping GIF can provide a sneak peek of the video content. 3. Include a play button: Overlay a play button on the thumbnail to indicate that it is a video.
