Founder Video
Build trust and connection with personal video messages from your team.
Founder Video displays a floating video bubble on your site. Visitors can click to watch a personal message from you or your team, building trust and increasing conversions.
Studies show that personal video messages can increase conversion rates by 10-25% compared to static content.
How It Works
- A video thumbnail bubble appears in the corner of the page
- Visitor clicks to expand and play the video
- Optional CTA button appears after video plays
- Visitor can close the video at any time
Configuration
Content Settings
| Option | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Video URL | Direct link to your video file or embed | Loom, Vimeo, or direct MP4 |
| Thumbnail URL | Image shown before video plays | Your face or a branded frame |
Video Sources
RevDock supports videos from:
- Loom — Paste the share URL
- Vimeo — Use the video ID or embed URL
- Direct MP4 — Any publicly accessible video file
- YouTube — Embed URL (may have branding)
For best results, use square or vertical videos (1:1 or 9:16 aspect ratio). Horizontal videos work but display smaller in the bubble.

*/checkout → matches /en/checkout, /fr/checkout
/about → matches exactly /aboutRecommended targeting:

/pricing,/,/features - Exclude:
/blog/*,/docs/*,/dashboard/*
Best Practices
- Keep it short — 30-90 seconds is ideal. Respect visitor time.
- Be authentic — Scripted is fine, but genuine warmth matters more than polish
- Show your face — The thumbnail should clearly show a person
- Add value — Don't just say "welcome" — share a tip, insight, or offer
- Mobile test — Ensure the bubble doesn't block important content on small screens
