New Video Compatibility
FundRazr introduces Vimeo support for videos. Now you can add Vimeo videos (in addition to Youtube videos) to your campaigns and campaign updates to tell your story.
Q: Why should you use a video?
A: Although pictures are great storytellers, videos are often more impactful. In fact, campaigns with videos often raise over 100% more than campaigns that don’t. Video is a great way to engage your donors and connect with them emotionally. It allows you to showcase all aspects of your story in a compact, engaging way, so that your audience is more willing to share, donate, and help spread the word.
To add a video, simply click on edit campaign on your campaign page, paste the url of your video and then finish and share.Add a Video Now!
