Prospecting video for Gmail

Send personalized outreach videos from Gmail without stuffing inboxes with large files. Host on Videco, share a watch link, and let prospects play on a branded page.

Share a watch link, not a file

Gmail is a poor place for video attachments. Host on Videco, then paste a /v/{shareSlug} watch link so prospects open a fast player instead of downloading a file.

Brand the player for outreach

On Pro and Business, set player colors and your logo so the watch page feels like your company—not a generic hosting page.

See who engaged

Videco tracks plays and watch time so you can follow up on prospects who actually watched, not only who opened the email.

How to use Videco with Gmail

  1. 1Sign up at app.videco.io and upload your prospecting video.
  2. 2Wait until encoding status is ready, then set visibility to unlisted or public.
  3. 3Copy the watch link (/v/{shareSlug}) or embed URL if you need a player elsewhere.
  4. 4Compose in Gmail: short intro, optional thumbnail image, and the Videco link.
  5. 5Send. When they click, they land on your hosted watch page—not a heavy attachment.

Outreach tips that work

  • Keep the email short. Lead with why you recorded the video, then the link.
  • Prefer a clickable thumbnail or clear CTA over attaching the MP4.
  • Use unlisted when you want a shareable link without listing the video publicly.
  • Brand the player on Pro+ so the watch experience matches your outreach brand.
  • Review analytics after sends, then follow up with people who watched.

Built for hosted video outreach

Videco is a video hosting library and player for growing teams. Upload and encode, organize in folders and projects, share or embed, brand the player on Pro+, and review analytics. It is not for live hosting or webinars—just reliable hosted video you can drop into Gmail and the rest of your stack.
