All right, so this is the fun part here. This is the thing that makes Stream Agent truly a powerful, degenerating engine for your business and for your videos, and that's going to be the interactive elements. Now, a lot of other places they're doing this stuff, they're charging literally hundreds of dollars in order to be able to apply this into your videos.
We do it on our basic package, all right, this is kind of the bread and butter of what makes Stream Agent different, unique, fun, interactive, all those good things. So let's go ahead and dive in and let's check it out. I'm going to share my screen again with you here, all right, and we're going to go ahead and pull this up. Now, this is a video of me, obviously, I was doing an interview this was years ago, figured it'd be a fun video to kind of throw some stuff on top of.
So over here on the left-hand side, you've got your full menu system, you've got obviously all the customizable elements here, but let's go to interactions because that's really what we're looking for here, okay?
So with interactions, this is great if you're trying to get people to take action, if you're trying to get people to sort of engage, engagement is proven, 80% more leads are generated through engagement videos than just static videos, so this brings your videos to life, which is really, really cool.
So you imagine you're just talking or you're saying something and you all of a sudden, you know, you want to throw a little button up, right, maybe you've got like some sort of sale that you're running or some sort of promotion that you're running or some sort of, you know, fast action bonus that you're running, right?
You can create a button here, we'll go ahead and drag this down here, and the button is fully customizable, so let's just say, we'll just say go here just for, you know, argument purposes, right? And you can, like I said, you can change the color the way it is, you can change the opacity if you want to make it a little bit more see-through, if that works better on your background. A lot of these design elements are going to come with whatever you're putting the button on top of, obviously.
You can round the corners, I kind of like the rounded corners, you can put a little border, I like adding maybe just like a little border, just gives it a little bit of like a 3D dimension, you can adjust the font size within there if you want to make the fonts bigger or smaller, you know, and then obviously some just like text line left right, vertical, all that kind of stuff, font color, all that kind of stuff can be adjusted, fully customizable, right?
But really, the thing that matters the most here is the action that this button will take, where are these things going to go? You can actually, and we'll show you in a little bit of a later video on how to make this button to actually go to other videos that you have within StreamAge and within the same player, which is really cool, you start building out video funnels that way.
But for this example, I'm going to show you that you can just essentially have it go to a URL, right, and you would type in the URL. So once you click the button, the button will then send you to wherever you want that button to send it to, whether that's you're running some sort of special and you want to send them to the order form or you have some information, maybe that you have that you're like wanting to give them access to that information.
If you're, you know, have reports or something like that or some sort of article that you want to reference in a video, this will give your customer a reason to pay attention and to engage within your video makes it so much more powerful and really, really cool. I'm not going to run through every single one of these because I think a lot of these are pretty self-explanatory. The text one, you can just add text if you want right on top of the video.
You can just drag this here, you know, you can adjust obviously the font size and all this good stuff within here. This is resizable so you can make it, you know, whatever this, whatever color you want, all that good stuff, right. So you can add in text if you want annotation, any of the annotation stuff means that it's a dismissible figure.
So if you want, you can create text annotation, which is what this annotation is, or you can do an image annotation, which means that it's going to pop up on the screen and your person can click it away. So the person the viewer can click it away. If you just want to put something up there is like, hey, this is, you know, a reminder of this and click this to get rid of it if you want.
If you put an image, image here, you can drag this right on here and it's going to actually put a full-scale image in here as well, which is really, really cool. I've done with this, I've done promotions where I've created flyers in Canva, like 50% off, or I've created like, when I was doing real estate, I would have like the house and I would have the MLS listing that it would essentially go to.
So I'd put a picture of the house up there, I'd put like a picture of the report, the MLS report that they could click, they would click it, and then it would send them straight to that MLS listing, which was really, really cool, again, very interactive. So that's what the image does. Image annotation, obviously, I just said was, you can get rid of it. The share button here will basically force your viewer to share.
So if you put this on here, it will give you this, okay, and this is going to essentially not allow anything else in your video to happen until somebody clicks one of these links. " You can post something like this in here, which will force people to share it to social media and get, obviously, your videos out there. So you have to have great information on the back end, but this is a really, really powerful feature as well.
I'm going to go ahead and I'm going to delete a couple of these real quick, because otherwise it's going to start, I'm going to all start going crazy, and you can see I just delete that up there at the top there, delete this, all right. Now I'm also going to show you here the turn style. Now the turn style is sort of a bread and butter feature.
Again, on other platforms, or on other platforms, I should say, the turn style is one of those things that is really a high, like a high value item, because this is how you 're going to be able to capture emails for people, all right. We're going to devote an entire lesson just to the turn style, because it's that powerful. I'm going to show you guys how to sort of collect data, collect names, and where those things go. But for this, I'm just going to show you how to implement it.
So you basically just drag and drop the turn style, and this will pop up, and it will force your viewer to go through the turn style in order to continue on in the video. Now you can turn on, so I want to show you this, is it skippable, okay. I would highly recommend you really think through if you want to make it skipp able or not skippable, because if you make it skippable, it's something that will keep people going, keep people engaged.
If you have something where it's like, you know, I got this really great report . If you're interested in that, let me know. I'm going to give you guys the opportunity to get that right now. You pop up the turn style, but you can let people skip by, because you don't want people putting in fake email addresses or giving you sort of like fake data, you know, if it's just something that you're just like, oh, it's just like a free report.
Now, if you're doing something where you're like doing, hey, we're doing a serious like a lesson in everybody, the traffic that you're sending there, you need to capture their data in order for them to access it, that's sort of the requirement, then you make it not skippable, okay. Now it's your choice on, you can try both of these. I usually make mine skippable, but I think a lot of people would choose to make it not skippable. But again, that's your choice.
So you're going through that, here you can capture name, first, last name, an email address. You can actually, you can also turn off if you don't want to capture the name, you just want the email address, but I don't know why you wouldn't want both. So I always leave that on. And then you also have the ability over here to go whether or not you just want it to repeat like once and once they've viewed the video, it'll never show it to them again.
It'll show it to them every time until the email is collected here, you can show it to them every day. You set every 24 hours to that or every week or always, right? So I usually do it until the email is collected. Sometimes you can do it. I think a lot of people might just do it just once they show it to you and then it's like, all right, we've moved past the email collection. If you're not going to give me the email, then we don't need to keep showing that to you.
Especially if you're doing like a VSL or something like that, maybe you just want to show it to a once and then like kind of move on from that and that's all captured in the back end with cookies. So they'll cookie them and it'll tell whether or not they've accessed it or not , which is really cool, okay. And then this title up top here at the very top is completely editable, edit able I should say, editable, yeah.
You can change this to whatever you wanted to say, you can change the font size to whatever size you want that to be font style, font color, all that good stuff. All the text here is you can change, I don't want to try to say editable again, I think that was correct. And that's the turn style feature. Like I said, we'll go deeper into where that captures and how you can send that out to other things in another tutorial, okay. So that's going to be the turn style.
The quiz here is, I'm going to delete this real quick. The quiz is really almost like a more like a survey than it is a quiz. It's going to basically give you some questions and on the back end of this, you're basically able to send people in different directions based on how they answer that, which is really cool. So you can come in, you basically give them some options and then from there you can send them in different directions based on the way that they answer that.
And then basic, this is just chapters here, all right, you can drop some chapters in here. And then the chapters you can edit on the back end and I'll show you how to do that as well in another tutorial, all right. So that's pretty much the interactive elements, you know, it's a quick, broad overview. Like I said, very, I think very straightforward, very simple. But if you do have any questions, please email us and we'll get those questions answered for you. Okay.
All right, let's go on to the next tutorial.
