How to Send a Video Email in Salesforce
If your email could talk, it would say, “stop trying to attach videos to me!”
Why? The file size of a video is too large to attach to an email, even if you compress it. A workaround is converting your video into a link, but adding a link will trigger SPAM filters and will set off a red flag for your prospect.
That’s why sales professionals are turning to alternative messaging solutions, like video emailing platforms.
Using a video emailing platform to send a video email in Salesforce will avoid:
- SPAM Filters
- Low Open Rates
- Low Response rates
What is a video emailing platform?
Video emailing platforms provide a space for you to store your videos outside of your website’s server. Once videos are recorded or uploaded to your video email platform, you’ll have the option to share your trackable videos on Gmail, Outlook, text message, social media platforms, and CRMs like Salesforce.
Best of all, you don’t need to stress about email programming in salesforce when using a video emailing platform. For example, Covideo’s new Salesforce integration allows your team to record, send and track videos directly within the platform, keeping them focused and efficient.
Here’s everything you need to know about sending a video email in Salesforce from Covideo.

Benefits of The Covideo Salesforce Integration
- Record and send new videos directly within Salesforce under contacts and leads.
Why is this important? Sales managers and sales teams will measure how much video email activity a particular contact or lead has received. When a salesforce video is sent on Wednesday and watched by a lead on Friday, a sales rep will have a better chance of getting on a phone call or zoom meeting with that individual. This is a unique feature that only a few video email platforms offer to their users.
- Access your Covideo library and navigate between folders to add existing videos to emails in Salesforce.
Whether you’re sending a video for sales or sending a video email marketing, Covideo allows your team to access their video library within their Salesforce account. That means they can add videos produced for Salesforce email marketing or apply personalized video they created. Adding exciting video will improve your team’s experience in Salesforce, send emails that stand out, and create effective communication.
- Control and assign landing pages, calls-to-action, and thumbnails before sending.
You can change your setup for a video email in Salesforce by selecting the correct options before adding an existing or new video. This will allow you to harness different calls-to-actions for a lead or apply festive landing pages for seasons and holidays. This is a separate process if you want to learn how to create an email template in salesforce or how to send mass emails in Salesforce.
