What Are Mini-Triggers?

In this article, we’ll explain how Mini-Triggers work and how to use them.

This feature allows you to display messages in the player to help your viewers, directly impacting retention until the moment of your sales pitch.

Practical Example of How Mini-Triggers Can Be Useful

Imagine you have a product presentation video and want to ensure the viewer remains engaged until the end.

With Mini-Triggers, you can configure an interactive message or image to appear at key moments in the video, encouraging the viewer to keep watching.

For example, you could set a Mini-Trigger to appear 30 seconds before the end of the video, prompting the viewer to click on a link to learn more about the product or to sign up for a special offer.

This increases audience retention and improves conversion chances, as Mini-Triggers act as important reminders or moments that keep the viewer engaged.

How to Set Up Mini-Triggers?

1. Select a Video

Within the video settings, scroll down until you find the Mini-Trigger feature.

2. Upload Your Image

Add the image you want to appear in the video, and fill in the following details:

• Name of the Mini-Trigger;
• Start and end time for when the trigger will appear in the video.

You can set the image to appear throughout the entire video.

3. Publish:

After making the changes, simply click "Publish" to save and check if it looks the way you want.
