Given the limitations of direct embedding, marketers often use alternative methods:
Thumbnail with Play Button: Create a thumbnail image of your video with a play button overlay. Link this image to the video hosted on your website or platform like YouTube or Vimeo. GIFs: Use animated GIFs to give a preview of your video. Although GIFs don't have sound, they can effectively capture attention and encourage recipients to click through to the full video. HTML5 Video: For email clients that support HTML5, you can include videos directly. However, you should always include fallback options for clients that do not support this format.
