Here’s a powerful idea – why not make your videos interactive and then embed them on many of the world’s most popular social networking sites. Engage your viewers by taking advantage of the lean-in experience of interactive video and attain click-through / engagement rates that far surpass anything else on the web. Please view and engage with the vlog below to see how it works.

Here at Veeple we are 100% about taking video to the next level. Why sit and stare at a video when you can lean-in and interact with the video, the message within the video and even the creator of the video. The next step in social networking. Enjoy.

In the fever of launching interPlay last week I had failed to tell everyone about a new discount model for non-profits and educational institutions. In the spirit of adding value and aligning with organizations doing ’special’ work, we are now offering the complete Veeple solution for a 30% discount to our standard pricing. Now, .edus and .orgs can take advantage of our interactive video service for only $69 per month, and get up to 10,000 videos streamed with no obligation, on an opt-in, month to month basis. The advantages of interactive video are impressive, on the order of 24% engagement rates. However, the educational aspects of interactive video for e-learning purposes are, without a doubt, tremendous and unprecedented. Students can now interact directly with the medium, the message and the messenger.

If you have any questions, click on the interactive video above or contact us directly by sending an email to sales@veeple.com.

Thanks and have a fantastic day or night.

All the best, Scott

Hello Again and welcome to this week’s customer success.  Let me start with the conclusion first this time.  Dwayne Coots, VP of Marketing for Q-Based Healthcare says, and I quote, “…with Veeple we can now move from a pitch video to creating a mini-video sales kiosk.”  That is a wonderful quote – a mini-video sales kiosk.  We know from our intelligent video statistics that Q-Based is expereiencing about a 21% CTR when he adds interactivity into his video scripts.  But Dwayne tells us directly that they are seeing a 140% increase in customer conversions through the use of the interactive video.

Thanks for taking the time to view the Q-based success story.  You would see similar engagements and conversions if you too were to add interactivity to your videos.  Create the lean-in experience your are looking to create for your prospective customers.

Next in the mix – introducing Veeple interPlay, our new interactive API and Plug-in so that any person or business with a third-party player will be able to add interactivity to their videos.

Enjoy and all the best,  Scott

Hello again and welcome to another Veeple customer success story and the powerful use of interactive video. Chris Gatley is the owner of Catch The Bite, a very well known site for people who have a passion for fishing. He is often seen on ESPN television specials about fishing and outdoor sports. Since I first wrote about Chris he has closed down CTB, but while he was running the company he did very well with his interactive videos, experiencing a very high engagement rate of almost 30%. Chris was experimenting all the time with Veeple. Two specific i-Commerce successes Chris had entailed two video campaigns, one which resulted in $4,000 in new customer orders in a two week period and the other in $17,000 worth of new business.

Here is another interactive video success story from one of our great customers – Sniper’s Hide. Sniper’s Hide is a business that specializes in helping law enforcement and the military train in special weapons and tactics. Frank Galli, Sniper’s Hide owner, was looking for a way to use interactive video to improve his business. Frank was hopeful that this new type of video would do as well as his YouTube videos. Well, the new videos have far surpassed his expectations by about, his words, a factor of three times. He is seeing about a 31% engagement rate and recently sold a $3,000 scope to a customer who had simply watched the video and clicked on the purchase button. Now Frank writes the interactivity into his video scripts.

Click on any of the interactive buttons below on the video screen to download Frank’s success story, contact him or visit his website, or contact us at Veeple. Yet another way in which we are using Veeple interactive technology to engage our viewers.
